Will,
Forgetting the 8000 discussion for the moment (it's not going to happen unless Bill gives me the money !

), if I decide to move away from B&W passives you seem to have exactly the same kit list that I'd be aiming for after the discussions I've had here so far.
So, how do you feel about the voicing of the 5500HC compared to the 7200's ?
Do you have any surrounds & do you use your system for movies, or is it music only ?
Do you feel the SW1600 complements the 7200's - and how do you have them set up ?
And how would you describe the sound of your system - perhaps in comparison to what you had before ?
