    You've got to be going half crazy waiting to get everything hooked up. I know I would try to beg borrow or steal some interconnects to hear all of that new gear!

    I never knew setting up a audio system would be this difficult ..

    Too many components.. too many brands ....too many combinations..... Too much information.... too much money.

    That's her 10th diet Coke, :cheesygrin:
    I bet she could keep you warm at night though but be careful if she gets the munches in the middle of the night..lol

    Yep, it's a diet Coke, but bear in mind that she ate her way through three entire McDonalds stores (including all the extra ketchup packs), all Winchells Donut locations within a hundred mile radius, and downed Jared while ransacking a Subway. Somehow that diet Coke seems insulting after all that.

    In the words of Mark (I might be paraphrasing here): Home Theater is easy, 2 Channel is where it's at.

    Actually, it is the other way aound. Anyone can setup a two channel system, but it takes skill, knowledge, gear, cables, and power to get a surround sound system working great. :smile:

    Fox, I think you missed Mark's point with his statement. HT is fairly easy but your not doing critical listening when watching a movie. In 2 channel when your listening for....well, everything.....it becomes more important to move those speakers an inch this or that way or tailor the sound by way of a tube swap or even cable swap.

    Not to insinuate that people don't listen for the little things in HT, it just becomes more apparent in 2 channel and that's where people get more fussy about the final sound.
