Alan -

I have the AM5 and AM7 speakers. I, too, am looking at adding a sub to my system. I was talking to my dealer today and he has a used (6 mos old) Paradigm PS-1000 he is offering to sell me for $335.

Is this a good deal?

He suggested using the line level input as a connection from my B&K AVR202 rather than the speaker level input. You recommended using the speaker level input in your message with the AM system. Which is better and why?

What is your opinion of the PS-1000 sub? It sounded pretty boomy in the demo room. There was a significant difference with and without it. The room I demoed in it was about 16'x24'x10' high. My room at hom is 20'x20'x10' high. Comments?

Thanks for your comments/help!

Oh, if it matters, I am looking at replacing the Bose with B&W speakers in the future. I am looking at the 604/603 for the font and 602 for rears or the CDM7SE front and CDM1SE rear with the CC6 center.
