Just google pono music and read about it. Most reviews say it is absolute BS; expensive and doesn't actually sound any better than MP3s.

One more option is to use two center speakers, one on each side of the center stud.
You could get away with smaller drivers since they'd be doubled up.
Are you surprised that they can hear it? I hate the cars with giant subs; when I lived in an older house the windows would rattle when they drove by.
I'm considerate of my neighbors too, because I don't want to be bothered with their loud bass.
I'd put on some loud music, go outside and check...
You're not making any sense.
You have an AV receiver and an AV Unit? What is the AV unit?
If they are separate systems then yes you can play them at the same time and it won't hurt anything. And no, you can't make a 10.2 system out of that.
When I see the ads with the low introductory prices I always wonder how much it costs after the first year.
You should consider cutting the cord. Depending on which channels your family wants and how fast your internet connection is, you can save a bundle.
So you're talking about changing from using a computer and set of speakers at a desk to building an entertainment system in a room?
For a couple of years I didn't have a TV and my laptop was my entertainment center. I'd watch blu-rays, DVDs and online video on the screen and play my MP3s...
I haven't kept up with the latest but normally receivers can't multitask.
Whatever source is selected will play from all the speakers.
Since you'll likely only listen to music on the patio you can build a separate system for that. Stereo receivers and CD players are cheap and you can locate...
The size of speaker enclosures has always been determined by the woofer, so when you have a separate sub the midrange and tweeter combo can work well in a relatively small box.
Those mounts you link to are bulky and expensive. Do those pioneers need that much?
There are lots of smaller and...
Yes, there are lots of other uses for the 201s.
My Onkyo surround receiver has "B" outputs for a pair of stereo speakers in another room.
I was just looking at Amazon and they show lots of surround speaker systems for under $500; even some JBL, Polk and other good names.
Do you have a 5.1 receiver? You wrote of having 2.0 stereo now.
If you don't, I'd look at HTIB systems because they give you the most for your money. I have an Onkyo that I really like and to build a comparable system with separate pieces would have cost a lot more.
I've been an audiophile...
Has no affect on the voltage.
I'm not familiar with your Monster but some have sections that are isolated from each other. For instance, some devices with motors can put noise into the AC line that an audio amp could pick up. If the outlets are isolated that won't happen.
Google your model...

Is your point that you're not going to OC? Lots of people don't.
I've built systems for decades and used to upgrade parts and spend hours tweaking to get the max out of my chips. Some systems were stable and lasted for a long while but others were flaky and failed.
It was fun playing...
You should really check out the review sites like cnet, techradar and tomsguide. Much better than just asking random people for advice.
Google "tv reviews 2015".
