David I am in Denver setting up for CEDIA. Should be a wonderful system. Sounds like it might be time for a get together.

My new front 3 speakers will be Sonus Faber Guarneri Memento for the left/right (with full new warranty) from my local dealer and a Sonus a Faber Cremona M Center finished in the matching homage glossy red violin finish from Ivan. I have 2 JLF112 subs to augment the bass from Ivan. I had thought of moving the sonus Faber Elipsa from my 2 channel room but I love the way they sound where they are especially since Bill (metafacts) from Sumiko set them up and I don't want to move them . Hopefully the SF GM will not be too small for my home theater compared to the Magnepan's they replace. Pictures and impressions to follow .
That is going to be a superb setup for a Home Theater! I have the Sonus Faber GMs powered by the MC501s and I absolutely love the sound ! Your SF mementos pairing with the F112 subs may give you a different though about the amazing Elipsas. Can't wait to see your setup.

The new speakers making the trip home from the dealer and then being brought into the basement through the back basement door so I don't have to carry them down the stairs.

Real question is "Does David need a wife more than GM's for surrounds ?"
