you guys are too kind. thats all humble stuff, i know it. but i will tell you what. with my old reciever, yamaha rxv850, and my home built sub. that set up rocked pretty darn good. the surround on the sub dry roted, and then i wanted 5.1. and so far it has yet to sound nearly as good as it did before.
one large problem i do have = a fair amount of slap echo, from the concrete ceiling.
Matt. look in the diy room for my thread. in a nutshell = i'm still trying to figure my new stuff out.
