You must have been playing extremely fast for the pick to catch on fire

It is still going to be a 5.1 setup with the Adams and a set of NHT M00s with a M20 sub as alternate speakers. The SSL handles 5.1 monitoring very well, can switch between a few different 5.1 speaker setups and even got built in bassmanagement and downmix capabilities. It has 4 different 5.1 external inputs (to listen to external sources) and provides an insert for a Dolby encoder. The actual mixing will happen in Nuendo in that case, because the panning in the console is not really setup for 5.1. We were listening to some surround stuff yesterday, sounds great. So there will be a M&K LFE-4 for sale...

I am keeping the rear rack and most of the front console for the new place, but will have to cut the front sides in half, it would be too wide the way it is set up now. We are going to build a new center section that will house the SSL (no feet), the MC Pro with two 24" monitors, sunk into the desk, and all the remotes for reverbs etc. There will also be space for the main computer (in the Iso box underneath) and some of the outboard gear. I just bought an X-Rack with 8 dynamic channels (there will be a second one with 8 E-series dynamics) and those will most likely live in the front "towers".

BTW, did you notice that your "feeling" button made it onto the new console
