| System Goals/Comments: | Music (5 and 2 channel). Precise movie playback at lower volumes. Can't take over the room. |
| System Strengths: | Imaging is quite decent; nice wide soundstage with 2 channel; multi-channel orchestra pieces where other channels are used for ambience are fantastic - 5 identical speakers used. |
| System Weaknesses: | Bass; need a better sub. Eventually would like 2 full range L&R speakers, while existing speakers will be used for 7.1 with separate 2ch amp driving L&R front. A touch "bright" but not overwhelmingly so. |

| Comments on HT System: | 120" image. Projector to be upgraded to 720p and better contrast. Need better ambient light control. |
