...for taking the time to give me such a pertinent and well reasoned reply. Well, all of your postings are of that nature I guess.

Yes I do have a huge window as most of the wall behind the speakers. This is covered with thick curtains for serious listening and they would have to be drawn for TV viewing too. I really don't think that I would have room for the rear speakers for multi channel so stereo would have to be the way to go for me - O.K as you rightly guess I am not at all interested in action films.

Centre channel? I understand your advice about getting one to match the front speakers whilst I can but ATC have been making the 50s for getting on for 30 years so I think I am safe ( they also do custom build if they do fall out of the catalogue). But the price is big for this active speaker.

I hadn't even considered the lipsynch problem so thanks for bringing this to my attention.

Overall my decision maker has to be the size of an appropriate screen and the cost thereof. When I visualise how it would be I can see that smaller one will be inadequate. I will therefore have to put this thought of mine on to the back burner unfortunately - a 60" Koru is the equivalent of about $10,000 in the UK.
