[QUOTE="alphabet, post: 306, member: 11"] All is not doom and gloom! I think all of us were taken aback by the size of the room(70m sq), but last night I was looking at my listening area and promtly got out a measuring tape. My "listening area" is only 6 x 5 m, but that is part of an open plan area that includes a dining room(6 x 5m) and a kitchen(4x3m). The listening area has a lot of sound absorbing material - couches, curtains, etc. This gives a total area of 72m sq! Now sound wise this is covered by a receiver claimed to deliver 80w RMS all channels driven(still feel its a lot more than that) and there is more than enough sound! My conclusion is that if you want sound only in the entertainment area, it does not have to cost the earth(R17K-R22K). However the additional requirement you have for sound in other rooms will change the picture somewhat budget wise. [/QUOTE]
