    I could show you some, the issue is that the pics have the current owner's stuff in the room.

    That's to cut cost when building. Most houses these days come in full front brick and vinyl siding (side and back) unless it has been decided before the building stage at a much greater cost.

    I've been given the ok to set up a 2ch. I have the HK335 which I will use as my receiver to start. The 340 I just bought is going in the HT room.
    Now my questions are what should I do (keep in mind this is only for a while till things settle at the new place)

    1) Use r10s as my main listening speakers with my yamaha sub

    2) move the r10s to the rears of the HT and use the rti4 as my speakers for 2ch along with the sub.

    the 2ch room is 12x16.
    buying new gear is on hold for now, we are going from a 2bed @1210sqft to a 4bed 2015sqft. Lots to furnish which is why I have to use what I already have.

    Funny, we still remember when Toronto called in the National Guard to help them in a snow storm. Here there is no such thing as a snow day.
    As for the deck. Yes we plan on making it bigger and fencing in the yard as well. I'm thinking some type 2 tier deck.

    No, it's what they call an Executive Town house. It's called that cause we have a 4pc ensuite and it's much bigger and has a finished basement compared to the reg town homes.
