Is this setup genius or insanity?

I thought you said you spent $4000 on the surround system.

yup

The speakers were probably only about $800 total. The subs were about $1000 together. The amps cost about $1800. The receiver was $400. My entire setup probably cost about $8000 including my computer. The expenses were spread out over several years.

amps + receiver = ~ $2200... that could get you a killer B&K reciever!
but guessin the $1800 for amps themselves were also spread out and not purchased all at the same time... (anthem pva-7 is $1700 new...)
