Allow me to edit my above post a slight bit. I just re-read the statement "those are excellent pieces and 'for music' you would need to spend approx >$7000 nowadays to get similar performance I would say".
That didn't come out quite the way I intended. It's bugs me when people say, you MUST spend X amount to get anything that sounds decent. There are many deals to be found and you don't always need to spend mega bucks to get something you really enjoy.
What I meant to say is that translating the price bracket the Citation and Lex were in when they first sold puts you in the >$7000 category. And, IMHO, for music surround, the Citation and Lex still do compete with units currently in that price range.
