Room Comments/Treatments:	This is an old farm house. My wife's plants dominate the right side. In the rear a 3' and 4.5' door open into 17' deep rooms. There is also another 3' door in the left rear side of the room.
Music Preferences and Comments:
Music Used (Genre/Selections):	Classic rock / Some classical
System Goals/Comments:	To get lost in the music.
System Strengths:	Midrange is stunning. Top to bottom this system is very close to what I hear from my Senn HD580's. Actually the system is better, I only listen to the 580's if I am forced to for family harmony...
System Weaknesses:	Speaker impedance drops to 2.6 ohms (gives amp a workout).Small sweet spot. Speakers are too placement sensitive. Moves as small as 1/4' can make big changes in midrange presence.
Video/HT System: None
TV/Projector:	Panasonic plasma TC-P54V10
Processor/Receiver/Amplifiers:
Speakers (Center, Surrounds, Sub):	Polk SDA soundbar with wireless sub. It's a television system...I don't really hear any surround sound, but at this point I don't care.
Sources (DVD/VCR):	Panasonic DMP-BD60 BluRay
Other HT Gear:
Comments on HT System:	The Flat panel speakers distorted easily. So I got the soundbar, which still allows the TV remote to adjust sound level, (WAF).
