And the women are sitting there shaking their heads muttering "boys and
their toys".  How do you type the Tim Allen Neanderthal grunt?

Hi Inge,
I run a 450 watt sub woofer behind a pair of 
Magnaplanar Tympani 1D speakers (4 Ohms) driven 
by 450 watt mono blocks and some nice Polk Audio 
rears and center. One needs the power for dynamic 
range especially when playing SACD disks in 
stereo of surround sound with good movies. The 
meteor coming in over your left shoulder in 
Dinosaurs will have you jump out of your seat as 
it impacts in front of you to the right of 
center. My neighbors have never complained but my 
wife does leave during some passages.
