Soooo...I think I am more confused than ever.

Do my speakers suck or what? Is 4 ohms bad or good?

I think I am going for the whole shooting match. I "think" I just got approval from the boss.

So, I was leaning towards the Yamaha 1500. Maybe the model just below that - depending if I want to go with the 2 zone.

Seems that most receivers are not good with my speakers? So will probably replace - the Cerwin Vegas with something that will compliment the receiver - suggestions here would be GREATLY appreciated. May spend 2000 total (receiver and 5.1 surround).

Please help! You know us military guys ain't too bright! ha ha ha
