Research...Research...:)

The more I think about it Michael, I like the MPS-1 option. A person could start with 2 or 3 EPM300's to run the LCR, and as time and budget permits, add some more, or even just use some EPM2150's for the Qs8's. EPM300's might be overkill for the surround channels, hmmm.

Either way, the Denon would be used as a pre/pro, and again as budget allows I could possibly look at getting a matching pre from Emotiva, hmmmmm.

In looking at my opening, I have 19" and these units are 18 7/16, so there would not be much space on the sides. Do they need a lot of breathing room on the sides, or just the top?

I guess I could cut some nice 2-3"' holes for venting on the sides if needed, or redue my AV rack to be a little wider. Either way, it is all hidden in my AV closet so you would not see it anyway.

I'll have to see how much green ($) I get for XMas and then make a fast purchase decision to get the free shipping before the 31st. Ok Randy, now wake up....
