Post split and moved. This is best in the audio forum instead of the Crescendo products forum. (The Crescendo products forum is for discussion on Crescendo products).

Nice setup Andre! It screams for a projector and big screen instead of the TV however - something bigger to match the speakers!

Love the 8800’s. my first "real" theater was with a pair of spectra 3’s with 1's for centers and surrounds. I still miss my 3’s, victims of a nasty breakup.
