    Well, my wife actually liked to watch movies in the HT and didn't grudge me for it at all. How'd that work out?

    Those are CS 3.6. The components you see in front are all amps. Four in total, actually, with one hidden behind the one to the left. Bottom center is an Emotiva XPA-DR2 for the Thiels. Above that is an A-300 (replaced by the A-2) for the upfiring speakers. Left is an XPA-DR1 for the center...

    No… and that’s not exactly a valid argument. Anyway, it was just a suggestion to consider. In my case, I’m 6’6” and the most comfortable chair I’ve ever sat in, by FAR, is the LZB Astor. Nothing else makes sense, for ME.

    Whatever model @Sam Posten has might be perfect for both of you.
