Russound, I've never heard of it

Yeah, I thought this much. I have 2 separate subs on a Marantz 5007.

I have had a few orders with them, including a surge protector. Everything went smooth. The shipping was a bit slow, but arrived in good shape and worked as advertised. I would rate them well as an online vendor.

I'll tell you who stepped up their game. Marantz...I've been a long time yamaha owner (since early 90's), and decided to try a Marantz 5007. It's been amazing.

Maybe because it knows you have signed in on your computer using cookies. I'm not familiar with kindle, but it seems it doesn't have a temp memory system like cookies.Just my 2 cents.

I was conversing with a home theater installer and he was telling me that each powered sub in my towers count. So, he was saying "technically" I have a 7.4 system. Was just wondering some of the guru's take on this?

Though I've never run 4 channel, I can tell you the addition of center makes all the difference in movie soundtracks. Dialog alone would be worth the addition.

Then again with 1200 budget? Don't forget to budget wires/stands,surge protect.

I like the denon/onkyo and BIC much better

Did the OP miss this post? Just do what he says here and you win. You are making something simple, really difficult.

It would help to know your speaker type/setup.

I would start with two towers and a good center channel first, then a sub, then some good surrounds. You see where I'm going with this. Are the Bose brand new? One thing you did well was the receiver for sure.

How well covered is the patio? Covered or enclosed?

Hopefully he already has the tvs, that would eliminate a some cost.

Wow that's rough luck. What's the average repair cost for something like that? I've had 4 yamaha AVRs since the early 90's, and never had one go bad. Maybe lucky.
