Thank You but I could have figured the math. The db rating was from the lit. since I don't have a meter.

The room is rather large (12x35) and the rears aren't installed yet. I have had the 3803 all the way +8.5. The dealer told me that the 9s had a 8" speaker that doesn't respond as fast as the 6.5" and the 7s match the cc370 and adp370 better.

Like you I like music and TV loud so most people might think that it is loud enough but then most people prob. would but the kind of equip. we have.

I do think the volume from my stereo (acarus A250 w/ Dahlquest DQ10s) is loud enough.

Speakers or AMP?
