Can Home Theater be "High End"?

Sure can! Just listen to a setup consisting of the Meridian 861 Processor, Revel Speakers and Jeff Rowland MC-6 multi channel amp and you'll get more than a taste of high end sound. Granted this setup costs a small fortune but you didn't give any budget restrictions!

Of course you can have a highend home theater, but highend two channel (for music) costs much less for the same quality, and the music software is more plentiful by a margin of 100,000 to one. I'd love to have a Runco/Stewart Filmscreen/Faroujda setup, but I can't afford $150,000 for a home theater, and enjoy my $15,000 2 channel music system as much, or more, than I would the home theater. If you have little interest in music, and primary interest in movies, by all means invest in the best home theater you can afford.

well said guys!! I am winning this arguement!!
