I think its time for a new display

Very nice setup Zumbo. I agree with the display, looks like you have plenty of room for say a 62" Mitsubishi 1080P DLP! I like the acoustic treatments in the room (the jackets by the speaker). Aren't you the one who's said that the amp didn't make much difference compared to your receiver? The 7605 is the same one I'm always looking at just in case I get the urge to spend some extra money. I'm sure I'll do it one of these days.

I started to name that picture "room treatment". My amp made a huge difference at high levels. The music comes alive. I had many argue that there was no way it made a huge difference. They were flat wrong. It sounds the same as it did before the amp at low levels. I love my amp. I am curious to see what a 7k amp of the same power rating would do. I doubt one could find reason for the 7k pricetag. I'll probably never know.

I have MB Quart speakers in my car.

Do the home models sound just as good?

They sound better. The cabinets are designed for the drivers, opposed to them being placed wherever in an auto. This is reason enough for them to sound better. I purchased them because I love the brand. They are superb
