Btw, it might help a little to "study" an interested SNA member's profile and specifically their trader feedback. That will give you a reasonably good start into trusting individuals. You can do this by clicking on the member's icon/user name and then click on "trader feedback" (which is beside the "activity" tab). Follow the classifieds here for a few months to get a sense of what sells and how. And avail yourself of the power of no. If you do not want people inspecting the equipment at your home then indicate this upon sale advertising (audition: no). You were given a wonderful music system and ended up with a bunch of worries and homework. Like many here I do hope you get an opportunity to switch it all on in your living room and enjoy the music with the family Edited January 10 by Steff 2

Takes the hassle and pain out of selling yourself. Of course, you won’t get as much for it compared to selling yourself. Not just sell it, but use the money to buy a pretty good-sounding entry system that does fit into your present home 2

In fact the Revel Ultima Studio 2 webpage specifically states A somewhat smaller size makes it ideal where space is limited Speakers make a big difference to the sound - IMO way above the difference amps/sources/everything else makes.

If you are near me in Sydney, i could help you set it up if your completely new to all this. ...just saying @AudioGeek's offer wasn't as an "interested stranger", but as an SNA community member offering assistance to another SNA community member... ...maybe AudioGeek's post wasn't the reason for your post? Any how - if you or your partner have any interest in decent sounding audio, at least keep the speakers! Mike 1

Mike Hi Mike, AudioGeek's offer was much appreciated and wasn't the reason for the comment, maybe just a misplaced wariness of selling something so high end. Thanks for the advice about the speakers. 1
