Wow, you are going straight for the top. They are both stellar, but I think Meridian gets the nod becuase it does BOTH HT and 2 channel so well. Both very upgradeable, but the meridian is probably the more so. A full meridian system is as good as it gets IMHO.

I agree with Jamesw20, the Meridian 861/800 is as good as 2 channel/HT can get. And we should also be hearing from Brianwater on this as well.

I do have the 861/800 Version 3,with the latest software.The sound is very good.The video is OK. Only down side with meridian you either are very good with operating that computer or have access to a VERY good installer.

I sold my Theta in favor of Meridian 861 V4.
