Can I say something though...

I think you will maximize the potential of your HT and your receiver if you will opt to get a larger front speakers, especially for music listening. Well, if you only have space for tower speakers, if you dont, I'll rest my case..

Still nice set-up.

Thanks for the comments, I couldn't agree less.  I've just upgraded my receiver kse so I think I'll keep my speakers for now  :)  Anyway, two channel audio is still very good even with my M71s! :)

Thanks guys.  PinoyDVD has been a big influence on my gear selection way back from 1st dvd player (pa lang).  And thank you to everyone who has so much contributions sa setup ko ngayon  ;)

Congrats Ravel. Very nice gears. May i "SARS"gest you upgrade your fronts to a larger one. You are definitely missing a lot on how large that "Monster" 875 sounds.  ;)

Not at all sir.  Meron pa nga akong glass between the two to compensate for their depth difference (mas mahaba kasi yung cayin kaysa oppo).

Congrats Ravel. Very nice gears. May i "SARS"gest you upgrade your fronts to a larger one. You are definitely missing a lot on how large that "Monster" 875 sounds.  ;)

If I may add, a large true 1080p display will help you reap the full benefits of the 875's video processing.

Congrats, nice gears!
