One for astetics, I plan to have pretty large screen so I want it to look like it has some bulk to it - stupid really. Second is that the room I'm using is 4,500+ cubic feet.

I know what you mean. If you are looking for a center with some bulk, you might want to look at the PSB Platinum series.

In that picture, the center looks like it could power the room itself.

For $2,000 it better.

A wee bit above my price point but a very nice speaker none the less.

In October I replaced my home theater for the first time in 15 years!

Went with:
TV: Panasonic TC-P54V10 plasma
Receiver: Denon AVR-4310
Front and Centre: Canton Ergo
Surround and Rear Surround (in ceiling): Monitor RS6
Subwoofer: Venodyne Optimum 12
Blueray: Denon DBP-2010CI
Ferman Power Protection

And a nice little IR repeater system so all the components are stored out of sight in the back room.

just to pass on was at Double Diamond (Edmonton) yesterday and the Harmony One was $210 (a great addition for any HT).

If anyone is looking to get into a budget 1080p projector should take a serious look at the Panasonic PT-AE4000

U.S. MSRP is $2,499. There are plenty of vendors shipping for as little at $1,999.00 U.S. I haven't checked to see if they are for sale in Canada yet. At the time of purchase I would have some U.S. friends ship it to me or have some relatives pick it up at the boarder for me if it wasn't available in Canada

Sure the Harmony One? At Costco seen the 880 and 600 series (think 680) but never the One.
