Would like some pairing info.

Hello everyone,

I am a noob at the surround sound stuff so here's my question. I just dropped $1500 on a hand picked system that includes a Sony STR DN1030 and I am hoping to pair it with some Martin Logan MLT-2's that I also purchased. While I am still waiting for delivery to show up I am just checking to make sure I picked the right stuff for the money. Does this sound like a good match for a mid range system?

I also bought a Samsung 51" E490 3d and a Panasonic DMP-BDT220 blueray player. Got the Mediabridge Ultra subwoofer cable, 16 guage speaker wires, pair of Mediabridge HDMI cables, and some Monoprice copper banana plugs.

I researched on CNet and other review sites and picked this stuff out. Most of my research was done looking at customer reviews and CNet, however, I also considered how many people reviewed the product and what the rating was compared to the number of reviews.

I hope I picked the right stuff for the money because I stretched my budget a little and was trying to get the most bang for my buck. The only thing I had trouble finding anything about was how well those speakers would match with the sony avr. Any help is appreciated or advice on what to do now that I have already bought it. Meaning, set up advice and things like that.

Thanks,
Jimmy Travis

Wow! All these audio pro's on here and I can't get one answer so that I can return and swap for a more suitable system if I need to. It seems that this is a Yamaha and Onkyo supporters site. I have read many answers and only one person suggested the receiver that I purchased. All I was interested in was if it would be good with the speakers I chose to purchase. The long term plan is to add a couple of Polk Audio towers and another sub later when I get a bigger home. I am planning on buying a bigger house the first of the year and thought the Polk speakers with the Martin Logans would create some great sound. Does that give enough info to warant a response?
