So, I should be ok moving forward using the Adcom to power the Alesis and the 706 to power other speakers when I build on the system? Also, the SVS PB-12NSD will be ok within this set up, correct?
Does this seem like a good path to go?
Thank you for your help as I can't afford to be purchasing equipment twice or needing to make changes after the fact.
One more question. So, I will still have multi-channel 7.1 surround sound capabilities running the Adcom to the Alesis, the SVS sub (powering itself) and the 706 to future speakers, correct?
If so, any recommendations on speakers (reasonable priced) to round out this system in the near future?
Yes, the one issue you'll run into is finding a center that matches the timbre of the Alesis. You'd really like to have a cohesive front soundstage, but the surrounds aren't as critical. Sometimes it's not too difficult, or if you're not too critical, but you would not mix Polk with Klipsch.
What sort of budget would you be looking at? And how would you describe the sound of the Alesis. Since they're studio monitors, I'm thinking they're pretty detailed and neutral.

Budget remains to be seen as I haven't even researched additional surround/center speakers. But, I would think the budget would be relative to the existing system I will have in place. The Alesis are neutral and detailed as you suggested to my non critical ear. I guess at this point I'm just looking for direction for the future. AVrat, you've been a great help!
