Thanks guys. Yes the sound is really good.

A little more info: I downsized the volume of the Center 4 PI (stupidly thinking it will only affect bass), despite advise from Wayne, to fit behind the screen. It was terrible mistake in term of quality - low mid were way too strong on some sound tracks. As a result, I will have to re-do it - keeping intact the internal volume (I will have to re-size, I assume the risk).

I resized all four 1PI to fit, keeping internal volume unchanged. No issue here (I have not measured but it sounds good.

Personnal opinion: To my hear 4PIs and 1PIs are not perfect fit together since the 1PI seem to play higher in frequency. It attracts my attention when watching a movie. However the system is not yet balanced. Not a major concern.

The equipment that drives everything:
- OPPO 105 (used as a preamp and HT processor)
- Main amp - SIMAUDIO 4150 (2 channels)
- Surround and center amp - SIMAUDIO HT-5 (5 channels)
- Sub amp - Dayton SA-1000
- Projector - Optoma HD-33
- Everything hook up to my home network with Audio-Video Server
- Room treatment to come...
