Thanks guys,

The shelving is a new absorption / diffusion acoustic panel sponsored by the music industry wink

Yes I still use CDs and LPs even though I have about 280GB of apple lossless encoded music on my computer. I am saving for the Sooloos at which point the shelves may be relegated to storage.

My 8ks are pre speakerlink so the 808i.2 goes via the 861 although I have to be honest, it sounds BETTER through the 861 than direct. Lord know why??!!
