Music Preferences and Comments:
Music Used (Genre/Selections): Rock (all types, except Death), Pop, Classic Jazz, Jazz Fusion, Blues, vocals (male or female), a bit of classical
System Goals/Comments: Goals are:

All-around system, dynamic, powerful, large scale, detailed without the harshness even at 120db volume (and never losing its grip), accurate tonality, correct PRAT (not erring on either slow or too fast)

System Strengths: Overall, the system is an all-rounder, which suits our varied music preferences well.
System Weaknesses: The room ! A dedicated room would be very ideal. Also, won't suit those who like it soft, silky, mellow, laidback.
Video/HT System: Separate
