And the height? Never can tell till you see one...13 feet wide and about 19 feet deep is the size of the room , but no sketch although i could mspaint one , but I don't know how helpful that will be.
Ah, originally it sounded like you'd found the place already...My guess is the fit will be tighter when i move a few months down the road , unless i find a house with a basement .
Probably not, but it might not be too far off either. Truth is there's probably very little if anything wrong pairing the Onkyo Tony recommended with the SVS, and that would be about 50% AVR 50% speaker/sub... You might do well with putting a little more into the sub for the 12"...While reading one thread here i seen someone say with a budget of 4k to spend 50% on speakers , 30% on the sub woofer and 20% on the receiver. I'm guessing this isn't the case though if my budget is only 2k?
Sure it makes sense. Good chance that Onkyo will be very happy to grow with you. Could very easily be the same with the SVS. If you're interested in comparing against other AVRs, you can also take a look at the low end of the Pioneer Elite line...I would like to get a pretty nice receiver though , because I would obviously like to upgrade to better speakers/subs in the future but if possible keep the receiver , if that makes sense.

Actually, it doesn't make sense. A good set of speakers will last a long, long time. I've had my Klipsch's for 12 years and my Axioms for 6 years. With no thoughts about changing either set. I've gone through 5 or 6 receivers during that time.Sure it makes sense.
Agreed. The Onkyo 876 is probably a bit of overkill unless you need things like 3 zones and dual HDMI outputs. You can get the Pioneer 1019 for less than $500. Pair that with the Axiom Epic Master 175 or perhaps Emotiva ERM-6.2's (LCR) and ERD-1's (sides) and your good to go for quite awhile for under $2000.If you're interested in comparing against other AVRs, you can also take a look at the low end of the Pioneer Elite line...
Sorry, when you said you were upgrading, I assumed you had low end stuff now... which Klipsch and Axioms, and why are you now thinking of uprading then?Actually, it doesn't make sense.

Spending half your budget on a receiver (when you still need speakers and a sub) is overkill. That doesn't mean it's a bad receiver, it's a great receiver, but when someone wants to spend $2000, they're much better off spending $500 on a receiver and $1500 on speakers and a sub.There is no such thing as overkill on a receiver
Me? Sorry.I think you're confusing me with the OP
