Rebuilding HT/Living room setup - Suggestions?

[blackangst1]

Yup, the stuff is all here and installed.. well except for the rears. Need to run inwall cabling for that. Hope to get it done this weekend.

What did you end up getting?

I did what I always end up doing.. starting small and talking into myself into more and more.

I picked up the new Pioneer 1121-K (after talking to some Denon and Pioneer reps that seems to be the way to go). The blue-tooth adapter for it is awesome, as is the Icontrol software for my Evo. I can play anything, anywhere from pretty much any source and control it all from my phone.

2 Polk RTi 7s as fronts
Polk CSI A6 for the center
4 Polk FXi A4s for the surrounds
Still using my old AR powered sub

Now I'm just trying to talk myself out of slotting an amp in to power the fronts. I'm fighting the good fight but I'm sure I'll end up caving at some point soon. My neighbors are going to hate me.

edit.. btw those RTi 7s in cherry are damn pretty.

audiogon is the place to go for cheap used amps
