Sa HT, equal lang tayo sa sub pre, konting lamang lang ako sa audio.  ;D
Super ganda na yang setup mo! As qouted from an anonymous writer,
"Peace of mind comes from concentrating on what you have, not on what's missing".
(PangKontra SARS lang pre)  ;D ;D ;D
Enjoy what you have!

Great setup bro! Dapat ilabas mo din yung ultra LE nating Ultimate Home Cinema Companion!  :)

Anyway recommendations lang bro, hope you wont mind.  :)
1.) Try going for room acoustics and treatments, you will hear a big difference compared to constantly upgrading gears (SARS). The room is 50% of the home theater experience (accdng. to a THX guy), and I agree to this statement.
2.) Try changing your 16 ga wire. I have been using 11-12 ga wires and a few months ago, I just tried using my old spare audio pro 16 ga wires and whoa! I realized the difference was quite big. The thicker guages really sounded a lot better, but I recall I never noticed any difference while I was happily using the AP 16ga wires when I was just new in this hobby.

Sure thing Sir. I'm always open to suggestions specially when it comes from you. After all, you're the reason why I ended up with HK.

This is what I really dream of doing someday when I have the financial capability and space.

Yep. I am planning on doing this. Lipat ko na lang lahat ng guage 16 ko to all the surrounds. Thanks again senyor.

Congrats, bosing!  Ang pogi pala ng setup mo, super-kinis and very neat.  Ganda pa ng matching and integration ng components.  

Except for the WH2, halos pareho pala tayo ng taste sa gears.  Iba pa rin talaga ang direct view CRT TV.  Maliit nga lang ang picture, but it's maintenance-free and can produce film-like picture quality at an unbeatable price.

About wire gauge, please see this table: http://www.roger-russell.com/wire/wire.htm#wiretable  Recommended maximum length for 16 AWG at 6 ohms is 36 ft.  Baka OK na ang wires mo, pati yung papunta sa rear speakers.

Yep. that's what I meant. guage 16 kasi ang nasa fronts and center ko. What I'll do is replace them with guage 12 then lipat ko na lang guage 16s sa rears.

Thanks attorney! Kaya nga enjoy din ako tingnan yung posted setup mo e. Super sulit talag Wharfedale. But I'm planning to replace my fronts into floorstanders. Konting tiis muna til maka tyempo ng good deal for a four way standers or a DALI concept 6 hopefully. :)
