Question for you. I see you are using an Emotiva power amp, even though you already have a high end receiver. My home theater is under construction now, but I have bought all new equitment. I bought the new Flagship Onkyo receiver, the NR5007. I happen to have an Integra M504 Power Amp as well. Would you say I would be better off using the M504 which is 165 watts per channel, versus my NR5007 which is 145 watts per channel?

@golfing22002 Absolutely--hook up the integra amp to the onkyo receiver! the amp will guve you 165w of true power RMS.....receivers don't advertise wattage accurately. They can't drive all channels at the advertised wattage at al times. definitely add the M504 to the NR5007 for a mind-blowing experience!!!

Just ordered a new in the box 890 over the 1100. Like the smaller size. Sounds like you like yours. My equitment will be in separate spot, so hopefully the RF expander will work well.

@golfing22002 The RF Extender should work marvelously!!

I have been building this for 3 years, you are the man! Please help, what software and ir device do you use to control your PC with the 890, I can do a MAC but not a PC.

@tea4temecula hey, I don't control the computer with the remote--just the PS3, xbox 360, and all other devises. BUT, newer windows machines come with ir ports built in (one of my laptops has this function)

How is the delay/response on the Harmony 890 Remote after pressing buttons?

It doesn't seem like there is one, but I can't be too sure.

Thanks for the advice on the amp. To compliment my Onkyo NR5007 I received the Emotiva XPA-3 today, and I have ordered the XPA-2 as well. I'm going to have my Polk RTI9's hooked up to the XPA-2. The XPA-3 will drive my pok center and two of my FXIA6's. My NR5007 will get off easy, and only have to drive the other 2 FXIA6.s. My two Polk Micropro 400's are already powered.
