The mere mortals on this board should do just that... :)

Just a side note - Test your HDMI cable if you can, before you close up the wall. I've seen defective ones, and you'll want to find out sooner than later if it's not working...

I've worked in rooms with Westlakes - great speakers - they are pricey...

The Samsung LN40A550 sells for around $1,000 - 1,100. It's a nice TV in that price range...

Panasonic Plasma - I have a PZ800U that I like. For LCD, you can deal with TOC, then the Samsung 6 series. Get a big TV... Really big.

Hey 3db - This is one of the big reasons why I think the Ohms are so incredible - the tweeter is really a super-tweeter, and doesn't come into play until around 8k (the xover is just a very simple lo pass filter). The original Ohms had full range drivers, but over time, a tweeter and ports...

The tweeter on my speakers doesn't even kick in that low!!

I think Chris is sort of on the right track. I haven't heard the Morrison Audio speakers, but I can recommend Ohm MicroWalsh Talls (I own a pair). These are going to be a lot easier to place, because they're not true omni-directional speakers (they don't radiate 360 degrees - but almost)...

That's exactly what happens... The whole mix is just slammed with compression/limiter, and it doesn't budge. Some mixers are more cut throat than others - it's also in the EQ - a lot of commercial mixers haven't worked on albums much, so that mixing subtlety isn't there. A guy that I like to...

Check out Ellington at Newport...

I've seen countless Bryston amps in recording studios over the years. Some quite old, putting in hour after hour of service - they're great amplifiers. Actually, Bryston takes their specs very seriously - a signed sheet of the specs is included with the 20 Year warrantee card with every amp...

They run very hot, so give 'em room...

Poor Spock, that constant Human/Vulcan struggle inside - do I trust my ears, or do I read the specs - the struggle may never end...

Absolutely, that is what my system sounds like. It seems like a contradiction, but it can be done...

I always look at it this way: These days, if you have a nice hi-rez TV, you should match it with some nice, hi-rez audio gear. If the dali's are what you have your heart set on, then get 'em, quality over quantity..

I listen on studio monitors everyday at work, so it took me a while to get accustomed to floorstanders too... Now I'm at the point where I don't think I'd ever want monitors at home again...

The Ohms are a grand - they're in a different league than anything at this price...

Depending on how large your room is, check out Ohm MicroWalsh Talls. I mention them mainly because of your mention of mid-range - they truly excel there - no crossover in the mids. Perfect small-footprint speakers for 2 channel music/movies. I know all about integrating speakers with the...

Try a tube integrated - if you can borrow one, or can afford to try one. The only way you'll know is to try it...
