Bumping this in hopes that someone can help me out. I'm inching closer to decision time.
I'll add another question: any idea how many real world watts these guys consume? I'll be in 5.1, I guess bi-amping the fronts, although I have mid-sized satellites up there (as opposed to towers), might not be worth while. I'm asking because right now I have a 750watt 220-110 step down converter, but I also want to use it to run a sub and the receiver. I also have a couple 200 watt stepdowns, but that's probably not enough to run either. Insight appreciated.
