Check your PM...
In your Pm, I gave a lot of advice on the 1015....
Edit:: Well not a lot of advice, but I tried to answer your question. I will post my answer here.
My typing is terrible, you could call at 954-***-****. The 1015tx, is great for beginners to experts. It has the MCACC, which is a mic, that will calibrate the system for you. Plenty of room to grow, way more connections then I would ever use. Plenty of useable options, specially individual EQ for each speaker, yes all 7.1 speakers. So tailoring sound is easy to do with almost any speaker choice you go with...
EDIT:: Btw, I use MCACC just for a starting point. Its quite accurate. But I like to tweak, so after a setup, I will spend at least a half hour tweaking the sound to my liking. You do not have to do this. Plus I have more setups then most people need, to many speaker options... And I have the upgrade bug.. Which a lot of people here have.
