I wish Richard would just release a 2Wq with the bass shaping feature. 
System for a dorm - how is this?
$1500 is a good budget given that you're in law school... hopefully you'll actually have some time to listen to it!Anyway, here's my suggestions--Get an NAD C320BEE integrated amplifier. Virtually impossible to beat for the price. Yeah, you'll nee...

16 x 12.5 x 8? Shouldn't be a problem for the 5's or 5A's. They seem to work very wall in medium-sized rooms like your own. In fact, I would say they work better than they do in larger rooms. personal opinion, obviously, but I think you'd be in go...
