Oh - just reread the thread and realized there is one thing I haven't commented on yet. With the new TV, we would get light reflected off the shiny wood top of the VCC-1 center speaker. It was really annoying with some films - so, I made a black cloth cap to slip over the top of the center speaker and masked that reflective wood! I did have to put a few dabs of silicon RTV to stick the fabric flat on the wood cap, but it rubs off pretty easy if I ever want to remove it ... I know folks who have painted their whole room matt black for the best movie experience, but this config works for us and is less stark when we are entertaining and not watching a movie.
