The only option for centre speakers is ceiling mount unfortunatly.. I'd like a 7.1 system - though i guess this is easily upgradable in the future and not really that important atm. The reason i went with the RX-V1800 is because is didnt need the networking option of the RX-V3800. Both essentially the same.

Where do i buy B&W speakers? - I dont want to over-capitalize on it - since i'l be moving out when i get married eventually... And i doubt my old man & mum would notice a difference between your avergae Big-W spec speaker and a $1500 one... when their watching some SBS monday night euro porn haha

Would a lower series B&W fall into my price range? $2.5g MAX.
Surround Sounds (Nedlands, ask for Adam, tell him Phil sent ya!) or West Coast HiFi sell B&W's. You won't get a set for 2.5g, like I said fronts alone will set you back nearly that much.

Have you seen the 6.2 Sony Mu-Te-Ki system? That comes in at under a grand. Gets plenty loud but isn't the best sound (remember I love my sound clear as so I'm biased) but that should do you. Basically you get an amp (which you don't have to use cause you have the Yamaha) fronts, centre, rears and a centre rear as well as not one but two 10" subs. Check it out at Retravision etc

Why can't you put the centre below the screen? Projector?
