We've owned B&W speakers since late 80's

Will be catching the R.M.F.A. In October.  Sincere Thanks. 

Great and good luck and you could easily find yourselves getting better sound for less money than you originally would have spent.

@jond ,  great advise on working with a B&M dealer and attending the RMAF.  The operator will be able to preview audio components and speakers at a very wide price range.

@lalitk Thanks I am lucky enough to live near a great dealer myself and have come to realize had work with them years ago rather than churning through dozens of used components I would have likely saved money and had a better system sooner.

@oldtonew2112, how did you do with the insurance company and the payout on the incident? It seems like there was just a thread discussing whether we need additional coverage for media and equipment or should our general homeowners policy cover everything, especially if the system was $10,000 or less.

PS. I am really enjoying my 2 channel system featuring ProAc speakers, Audio Refinement (YBA) separates, a modified Rega RP6 turntable and custom made Mogami cables. I also use it for AV 2 channel (see system details).
