System Goals/Comments:	90% dedicated to LPs so obviously I want a system that captures the strengths of vinyl.
System Strengths:	Sounds good to my tore up ears. Plenty of power and flexibility. These PSBs are, uhhh, owrking out :) May not have reached the nth degree of air, transparency, and bass extension, or even .6nth, but folks don't run screaming and holding their ears when I throw on the Cowboy Junkies either.
System Weaknesses:	Considering the moderate amounts of $$$ expended and the sorry state of my ears, I ain't complaining.

Comments on HT System:	Both rooms sound great, room with Panny is 14x17x10 and is butt fine, but living room system opens into huge kitchen, wood floors in both, so you know the sound issues. Media room is carpeted.
