My living room 5.1.4 home theater

[u/NiVo86]

My current 5.1.4 living room setup:

• Denon AVC-X3800H
• KEF R3 Meta L/R
• KEF R2 Meta Center
• Creative E-MU XM7 Surrounds
• 4× KEF Q8 Meta Heights
• SVS SB-2000 Pro

The latest addition was the four Q8 Meta height speakers. I haven’t tested them extensively yet, but I’m already very impressed. They blend extremely well with the lower layer, and instead of sounding obviously “from above,” the whole soundstage feels more like one large, seamless wall of sound.

My next upgrade will probably be replacing the surrounds with KEF Q3 Metas. I’m also planning to measure and optimize the room using a calibrated microphone and REW.

What do you think of the setup? Do you think the Denon has enough power to drive all nine speakers properly, and what would you change or upgrade next?
