ive been thinking about adding to my setup...18x12 room, lsi25 fronts, lsic, lsifx sides...and was thinking of putting another set of lsi25 for the rears or maybe lsi15's...using a rotel rmb1075 to do all 4 lsi's and the center and leaving the sides off the receiver (denon avr 3806 130wpc)

i just added an svs pc12plus to the mix...am i just getting too ridiculous?

    The only thing that's cooler than 4 big towers is 6 ! or better yet 7 !!! big towers.

    However, since your sides are staying relatively small and you don't have another amp, I would just pick a pair of LSi7's for the back and run THEM off of the Denon instead of LSiFX, which may benefit from extra juice.

    How many, though.... aren't those Amazings rather hard to drive properly? I was thinking about digging into my reserves to buy a pair, but then i thought about the other supporting upgrades i'd have to do to make it worthwhile....

    as suspected, the subwoofer works the best in the rear right corner so this will be a no go for me....but i will give a huge thumbs up to the svs pc12plus
