Sure!

Hmmm...
I'm also considering Denon 4520.
Sound Quality wise which would you recommend sir? Pioneer SC-68 or Denon 4520?

Thanks again

Sorry, no experience with the Denon. Maybe someone on the forum has and can chime in.

Finally got the Pioneer LX-86

Well Louie,

You having too much fun to write????

Thanks Wayne for the compliment.
I'm also very sorry for the very late response...
Haven't logged in for quite some time now...

Anyway as for the Pioneer / GE combo I can say that the mids and highs were improved as compared with my previous Onkyo. The pioneer gave better extension and details to highs. Initially I thought that the Pioneer / GE combo would give a bright/tiring sound but I was wrong, the combo is just right. I can't say that Onkyo or Pioneer is better than the other because each receiver has its own strength and weakness. For instance I like better the Audyssey MultiEQ XT32 of Onkyo than Pioneer's MCACC... Pioneer I think doesn't have EQ for the lower frequencies that is why I bought an AS-EQ1 for subwoofer EQ.

But one thing is for sure, you will not go wrong with either Pioneer or Onkyo especailly when paired with Goldenear... Goldenear is simply Amazing...

As for the dual PC12plus and dual SB13plus subwoofers... Enough bass...? Actually I'm not after the SPL output as I think a single PC12plus could shake my HT room with no sweat but what I'm after is the balancing of bass all over the room... Dual or even quad subwoofer set up would give you flat and balance bass response which would eliminate bloated bass, bass overhang, etc... My current subwoofer set up is arranged so the PC12plus handles the low frequencies (40Hz and below) and the SB13plus handles the midbass (40Hz-80Hz/100Hz), the Goldenears handles 80Hz/100Hz and up. This set up I think covers all the audible frequency in any movie material
