Thinking to upgrade speakers
the salon 2 would be the most accurate but need gobs of power seriously 1000 wpc would probably be safe then careful set up, but I think they have the highest ceiling. Focal Sopra's would probably be the easiest for me to get the best sound out of... 
what replaced your Aerial 7B speakers?
My demo of the 7b was fast, tight  and accurate, but neutral in the bass, actually bass never brought attention to itself. I'm currently enjoying Usher Dancers. Warmer than the Aeriels but still very accurate speakers. I see the Aeriel 9 coming up... 
VIENNA ACOUSTICS- DIE MUSIC
The mid bass bump not going away huh? I thought VA generally crossed over the woofers low and yours are 100 hz. did you put a sock in the upper port? I have a shop near me where the guys working there know how to make a system sing so i'm going to... 
New speakers? No thanks.
When I decided it was time to renew my hifi system the first thing I did was go to the jewelry store and buy my wife a nice bracelet. It just made the whole process so much smoother. Obviously kidding about the sis. 
D-sonic vs Anthem STR
why dont you try them on the 30 day home trial and tell us what you think? i'm interested in affordable power also. 
Paradigm Persona series
The persona 9h for $20k if it could be done could be the solution. 1400 watts with 4 bass drivers have me salivating... Don’t they have ARC built in? I would jump on it. I can't let a white coat lab rat tell me what I like better because a tweet... 
Usher SW-520
AG survives by making a commission on sales so if we bypass the market and start selling on the forums pretty soon there wont be these forums anymore, no? 
Speaker Recommendation: 20K range

3D Array Soundbar - GoldenEar Technology
My family room doesn't have room for a ht but I can hang a soundbar under the tv and use a large sub as an end table. though expensive the Yamaha ysp 5600 is the closest we're going to get to surround sound from a single box. it contains something... 
Full Range under $5k-ish
My first thought was the Revel f208, but I personally would look at the Usher Dancer 2 or one of the larger ushers used because they seem to be more amp friendly.  
Paradigm Persona series
Yea, I was commenting on your finishing with aeriel 6 being all that. If a speakers bright but clean, not sibilant or spitty and the repercussion is added detail and imaging i'll put some treatments on the wall at the first reflection point and en... 
Shipping heavy speakers
BUMP. Freightcenter.com appears to be a very fast data base that is fast to join and then armed with zip codes and sixe and weight of equipment can have estimates complete with shipping times in less than a minute. They offer insurance and usually...

I do wonder how much a tipped up treble highlights the differences in recordings? I compared the 7f to the 1028be in their mutual ability to weed out the crappy recordings, nothing more. contuzzi is passionate about hifi i'll give him that. Intens... 
New speakers? No thanks.
Most important question. Does she have any sisters? 
Why so many used focals?
Just like any other successful brand Focal has a line for every budget. I didn't find them bright or forward either. I just got caught up in how good a dedicated listening room can sound and now I don't think I need speakers after all. If I didn't...
