I found a pair of mint Carver Amazings
Find yourself a couple of pair of Carver Silver 9t monoblocs for about $1200 per pair and bi-amp them. One pair will get it done quit nicely....two pair will bring those speakers to their knees. 
No Turning Back Now
I'ts a no brainer for movies.Watching an eleven foot wide picture that's eight feet tall from 18 feet away in DTS was otherworldly. The only other time I've ever been so immersed in a picture was at an IMAX theater. I never thought anything could ...

Papa 171...I beleive that the celebs on the MTV "Cribs" show aren't cheap. I my opinion is that a lot of them don't even know about the world of HiFi audio.I manage and train salespeople for a mortgage bank. I use a projector for a lot of my train...

I remember a photo shoot of Fabio with all top-shelf Krell amps and subwoofer.....that was several years ago. 
Great Vintage Amps-which one for you?
Carver Silver Seven 4 chassis tube monoblocks.

Thanks for the info and pics on you system Rwd.....You are using tubes on top and SS on the bottom in a 4 chassis setup......any problem with the woofers and mid/tweet columns getting in sync using two different types of amps? 
Monoblock Suggestion?
I have used Carver Silver 9t monoblocks on my Infinity Kappa 9 speakers. These speakers dip to amp-killing low impendances and the Carvers handle them just fine with good authority. You can find a pair of the Carver monoblocks for around $1100 to ... 
Genesis 1.1, Infinity IRS V, 4 chasiss speakers
My room is 22 ft x 70 ft with a 20 ft high ceiling....the listening area is 22 ft x 40 ft. I was wondering about the feasibility of putting them against the long wall. Six feet out from the wall would give me another 16 feet back of listening area... 
Krell Service
Distortion,I just viewed your system and saw that you have an aquarium. Do your fish react to your music? How do they react when your subwoofer kicks in during home theater. Does loud music affect them?just curious

Tvad...can't be the cost with $100m budgets commonplace nowadays. Think of the product placement mileage Martin Logan or Genesis would get placing a pair of their speakers in Stately Wayne Manor in a Batman movie along with a Krell or Audio Resear... 
CD's for auditioning
For bass, try the Stanley Clarke cd "East River Drive". 
Are There Any Inherent Advantages to Class A amps?
Rauliruegas, can the Parasounds drive low impedances and deliver serious slam on the bass? 
Are There Any Inherent Advantages to Class A amps?
Raul, I'm considering the Krell and Pass monoblocs to upgrade from my current amplifiers. My current amps are the Carver Silver 9t monoblocs, they are/were the price point that I was able to attempt to enter into the high end audio arena. I starte...
