If you like it, that's all that matters. I haven't heard or seen your HT, therefore my opinions are invalid.
Yeah, I've heard his system, and know what it does and doesn't do compared to others. The sound is overall smooth, clear, and "audiophile sounding" mostly, so things are nice and clear sounding. Dynamics bumps up greatly with a Dappolito configured dual-woofer design, and more efficient designs by enlarge. Being that passive speakers need all the dynamic help they can get, there's better dynamic realism, engergy, impact, and weight to be had elsewhere, if that's important to you. (and it's critical to me...cause that's where the thrill and emotion lies)
Also, better focus and solidity of image, dialog intelligebility is available. The counter to the typical 805 design is that people think this design sound more open and pretty for pressentation. That, without the proper acoustics ends up sounding to polite, laid-back, open, faint, and soft sounding for HT dubties...quite the opposite of a good theater speaker setup. To each his own.
Still, in his room, if he is to use those speakers, they work good overall, due to hearing more direct sound vs. relected, with the high ceilings.
I like the Cal Audio stuff here as well.
Flrnlamb,

I only use the Monster PLC for other sources. My power amp CAL MCA-2500 is plugged directly into a 30A dedicated source. I also bought a Velodyne DD12 to get the low response out of my system. The Infocus 4805 and Dalite screen are probably my favorite items in my system. They bring me closer to a real Theater experience. There's no way that I can get the skin tone and screen size that only exist in an actual Theater without them. Unfortunately, one of the rear channels on my CAL MCA-2500 went out for the last two weeks and I've been trying to contact Scott Morris with no success.
