[QUOTE="JimJ, post: 6067082, member: 555251"] Just IMHO... Scale down. No reason for anything over 5.1 unless you have a massive listening space, and even then the selection of discretely encoded stuff goes way down. By eliminating two of those speakers, you're helping your budget in other places. If you're spending $600 per main channel anyway, you definitely can afford better things than CV. For that price, you could find a pair of Klipsch La Scalas, or Cornwalls, or something B&W, pair of Magnepans, a killer DIY project, etc. Ditch the receiver for a preamp/processor and separate multichannel power amp. Used from Audiogon. Outlaw Audio makes a nice processor, and you can find amps from Adcom, Acurus, Parasound, Rotel. For the Axis, go with a Crown or QSC rack amp. [/QUOTE]
