For the past year I have been collecting my audio equipment and I had my dad over to watch T3 with me and it blew him away. So much so that he now wants to buy my entire system. Now the problem is the fact that I told him that it only cost me 1500.00 now he wants it for that. Ohh well guess I might be starting over soon.:(
Wish I was a polkologist then I could call my self Dr.warviper.

    Why do you have to sell your gear to your father? Why not help him buy his own system!

    I think we talked about this before. Your right speaker is firing straight into the sofa, so that'll affect 2 channel playback. I'm sure it's ok for HT as the center handles most of the sound. I think the LS90 should work fine for stereo, you just have to change the layout if possible. Sure, adding a seperate power amp will help, but I still think the layout is the problem. After you get the amp, post your thoughts.
