Hello Everyone,
My first post here.
I've been a "lurker" here since I guess around 2002 / 2003.
In 2003 I put together an awesome system around Rotel, Niles, Runco, B&W and Velodyne. Much of what I put together was due, in no small part, to the likes of all of you - thanks for the valuable posts over the years. :T
I sold the house I was in along with all of that gear and recently moved into my new permanent place. New equipment time!
In my new house there will be two "media" rooms - a Living / Multi-Purpose room on the main floor and, ultimately, what I hope to be a kick 'you know what' theater in the basement (it's already framed for it). With fond memories of those aforementioned brands, they certainally fell on the short list for the new house.
So, I purchased speakers and a sub for a 7.1 system for the main floor living room as follows:
Front L&R (wall), Side (wall) and Rear (ceiling) - B&W SIG-7NTs
Front Center - B&W FPM6
Subwoofer - Velodyne MiniVee
Also - B&W CMW650s for my kitchen.
And a Panasonic Viera TH-46PZ800U plasma (the THX certified one).
For the electronics... As a HUGE fan of the Rotel 10 series, I was headed in that direction until I heard about the 15 series. So I waited. And, like many here, had this sort of weird feeling about the whole Class D thing and the new look.
After spending some time doing research and contemplating things, I ultimately decided on the Rotel RSX-1560 and ordered one. It arrived today. Unfortunately, I couldn't get to my dealer before they closed, so I'll pick it up tomorrow. My weekend priorities just got changed! :lol:
I'll report back sometime over the weekend.
