Newbie with question about receiver/amplifier

[spicoli15]

Thanks Bob

I think the moderators of this board should give you a whole bunch of thanks points so I will help you out with that...

Thanks, Thanks, Thanks, Thanks, Thanks, and Thanks.

I felt bad yesterday when I ordered my stuff on Crutchfield only to see that you posted a few minutes after that with all that work. On the other hand it is a testiment to how much knowledge that I gained in a relatively short period of time that I was confident enough to make these decisions. I did my Homework in regards to cost, and yes I could of saved a few pennies if I had ordered some stuff from Ebay, or other places... but I liked dealing with one company for all my needs (especially being a newbie) and felt their help was benficial as well. The two free Polk speakers didn't hurt either

So here is the breakdown... wasn't sure if you could list prices on here, because some forums don't like it (I am now a member of some crazy forums because I'm trying to learn about all these things that I need for my house... like my toilet forum I am a member of lol). So here we go...

On a serious note there was that recomendation to run Cat5-6 to each room Maybe down the line you might need it and since the walls are not up, its cheap to do...

Mornin Steve,

LOL. This is the very best and honest compliment that I can receive, that beats all these chicklets all together which means nothing at all, zip, nada.
Or it only means people's bad deeds, that's it, just a big fake joke.
They give you bad rep for revenge on their wrong judgements to others, made much to quick, without reading first, or trying to understand, but they are truly bad rep themselves doing that, because they are living inside a bad virus that devours them.
But you then Steve, you speak truly from the mind and the heart, and you truly recognised the true effort and dedication to my love at helping others, and that Steve, nobody can take it away, it's right there to remain eternally.
A big Thank you to you Steve, who truly appreciate my super deep efforts.
I wish few other members could be as honest as you are.

Bob

Thanks Bandphan, I will ask my contractor about it, although I feel this is on the plans (at least for some of the rooms).

So Bob, you didn't respond to the prices.... are they O.K.?

Thanks guys,

Steve

Wow! Quite amazing Steve, it is the same number than mine, remember, I was saying that we'll try to bring your cost down to $1,500 USA (post #18).

Hey man, I respect the confort of other people, and that is a big part of the equation; feeling comfortable with our purchases, be at ease, confident.
And I just respect that, so I don't argue, or try to go another route, I try to understand the psychology of all the people I deal with, you Steve, the OP.

Have a superb day, and let me know of your progess, with the final result: the Sound.
Cheers,
Bob
