Can Home Theater be "High End"?


I have an ongoing arguement with a friend of mine about this topic. What are your thoughts on this subject guys? Who considers home theater to be capable of "high end" sound and why? Or is it just all about high spl and super low rumble? Let's hear from ya!!

I will be running Avalon osisris speakers through a Theta casablanca II ( when it comes out). My sound is an SCD-1 with an electroglide PT Glide cord, off of a PS Audio 300. The main speakers are driven by Rowland 9Ti'S on a Richard Gray power station. The center will be the new JM lab Mini-Utopia CC and the surrounds will be the new JM labs in-wall Utopias. Cabling is Cardas neutral reference and the center amp is a bridged Classe 150. the rear amp is a classe 400. I bought most of the stuff over the Net either used or demo. The sound id FANTASTIC both for music and movies (Currently a Nakamichi CA-1, for sale cheap). The compromise is speaker placement. I'm sure that if I moved the Avalons out into the middle of the room, they will sound even better, but it ain't going to happen (WAF). David
Oh yeah. My subs will be either REL stentors or Aerial's. Got to wait on those for a bit. David
