...about how the setup should look, but perhaps the 40hz will work for me. As for 'another' system, I already have a second casual area, but it's not meant for critical listening. It's just beyond the pocket doors to my HT room. I have in-wall Paradigms for that area and I have those über cheap outdoor speakers connected as well, so I can switch back and forth or play inside and outside on our patio simultaneously.

As for my extra speakers, I think I'm just going to hang onto them in the event I have a problem with my center on rears. All 5 are the same (Paradigm LCR system...left, center, right) and I still have the dipoles on the sides. I guess a lot of this depends on where we end up if and when our house sells. I'd really like to build if I can find a suitable lot that's not too big. Most of what I'm seeing are 2 acres, and I don't feel like taking care of that much land these days. I'm just too busy.
