Ya I remember that it was nuts but I was at circuit city that year.

yeah i couldn't believe people would behave like that.. htats just insane.

I agree, so what front speakers are you running with your setup and what sub as well?

These are the fronts
MartinLogan | Purity

The center
MartinLogan | Feature

The rears
MartinLogan | Fresco i

The sub
MartinLogan | Abyss

:drool:
Those are very lovely, had a chance to demo some of their stuff, not 100% sure if it was the same but I was very impressed.

Very nice speakers, I was looking at them about a year ago. My biggest thing is I have to get more bass this 50 watt sub does the job for music but not for movies.

yeah man their stuff is really nice.. i was fortunate enough to have an amazing accommodation through my employer to purchase their products.

I know people always rave about the dr. hsu subs.. i thinks that how it's spelled.. i've honestly never tried them though.. the abyss is more than enough for what i'd use it for.. and thats in conjunction with a sub I already had

Well it is hard to find a sub that will do tight accurate bass and than rumble the whole room on a movie. I have been looking at the klipsch RSW-10d or the RW-12d subs and also the Premier Acoustic PA-120. I have heard Mirage is good.


I also just came across this.

THX Home Theater Subwoofer Layout

I am interested about what it says about rear speakers. I always figured to place them on the left and right side aimed at you. Not side by side firing. I might have to try that out.

those klipsch subs are quite nice

Def Tech BP7001SC Fronts
Def Tech CLR3000 Center
Def Tech BPVX Surround
Def Tech Super Cube Sub
Yamaha RX-V2700 Receiver
Samsung 65" DLP

That's it in a nut shell

looking at a 5.1 or 7.1 setup for the rears?

I hate suggesting it, but everyone has one near them, go to a Best Buy and test speakers.
They do have plenty to test and this is what I take:
~3 CDs (classic, rock, heavy)
~DVD (Depending on the setup at the BB, you can test a good DVD with the speaker setup)

After Best Buy I would start searching for some smaller home theater shops that have show rooms, they will stock other brands (both cheaper & more expensive).

I almost bought that setup only instead of the SC I sub i was considering the SC Reference or the Trinity. <LOL
