I am going to be moving into a new apt soon and am not looking forward to having to watch my sound levels. i was wondering though if it was a typical open room apt with the entertainment cecnter on one wall with a couch in front of it, could simply placee the wooffer behind the couch with the port aimed into the back of the couch. i was thinking this would give more shake to the couch without so much volume and allow me to still enjoy my low bass without getting complaints. any thoughts or sudjestions?

That is exactly what I mean. I have an option on my current reciever that is labeled "disco" where the center channel is disabled(it also adds some reverb, but I turn that off). What you get is a very wide sound field from the sides with the rear speakers just being sent stereo signal. Its just a preference of mine for listening to music. Unfortunitly several of the recievers I have looked at have not had a way to do this(or I just didn't see it right off without having to individually set each speaker level). Also, I know the sub is powered, but will a change of reciever change the tone of my sub any? thanks for the sudjestions so far i'll look into those.

I have the quintet system with the 12' sub. I am currently running it all off a fairly cheap yamaha reciever. Does anyone have any sudjestion for a reciever upgrgade. I have a very limited knowledge of recievers, and don't know what kind of options they have, but it is important to me to be able to run stereo cds of of all 4 satalite speakers for that full sound as opposed to front heavy. any sudjestions are appreciated.
