I just sold my house and all the AV gear went with it since it was written into the contract. :-( I had Phase Technology Teatro towers, center and surrounds, Harmon Kardon AV receiver and an inexpensive Philips DVD player. I *LOVED* the sound of the teatro 10's and to me they were like the Definitive techn ology BP2002s for half the price. So here's my dilemma, the new house I'm getting has a massive built in cabinet for proj TV and all the speakers but the catch it, they have to be small. As in, my wife does not want to see them. As in sub/sat. Fair enough, since I get to go buy new stuff now. It has been so long since I have shopped or listened to anything in the store and now I'm faced with the daunting task of audtioning several if not dozens of sub sat systems. Can anyone offer any recomendations of what ot check out or avoid (besides bose)? I'm budgeting 1000-1500 for sub, center, sats and surrounds.

Any advice is appreciated!

Thanks,
Rob
