I've just taken the plunge & bought these from a HT system:

Denon AVR-2805
Denon DVD-1200
Denon DCM-380
Paradigm Mini-Monitors (front)
Paradigm CC-370 (center)
Paradigm Cinema ADP (surrounds)
Paradigm PDR-10 (subwoofer)

I chose these speakers based on considerable time spent listening to them, but not all of them together in the same place at the same time. My questions:

1. Will these Cinema ADP's do a good job in a 12x15 room considering an old fogie's tastes for moderate sound levels and accuracy over loud? (A compromise based on budgetary concerns & wife's objections to anything larger...the fronts & center will hide in a huge 11" wall unit).

2. I got 12 awg speaker wire from Home depot...overkill, or would 14 awg be as good for the Cinema ADP's?

I would appreciate your thoughts & experiences regarding my choices.
