I personally prefer front projection. Biggest home theater screen available.

Let's explore list prices 2x RF-35s (mains)-> $1000 1x RC-35 (center)-> $400 2x RS-35 (surrounds)-> $600 1x RW-12 (subwoofer)-> $650 ----------------------- Sub-total: $ 2650 Now, take off AT LEAST 15% that a good dealer will give you off the list price (should be 20% with such a large purchase) and you get Total: $ 2250 This is just $150 more than the cheapest option you presented us with. Now, you could just get a Panasonic XR-50 receiver for something like $300 if you wanted to keep the price down and I guarantee that you'd be happy. You could actually drop all your speakers to the 25-series reference and probably wind up WAY below $2000 INCLUDING a receiver. On the other hand, if you were prepared to spend $3300 for the Infinity, you can actually start looking at the Reference 7-series speakers. 2x RF-7s -> $2000 1x RC-7 -> $750 2x RS-7 -> $800 1x RW-12 -> $650 -------------------------- Sub-total -> $4200 Total (After a 20% discount which you WILL get with this system) -> $3360 Which is ... wait for it... JUST $50 over the most expensive option you wanted to know about. ---------------- The only thing is, where do I find them for that price?

In your price range I would look at Synergy and Reference bookshelf speakers. If you like the Klipsch sound, you can find a good deal in your price range. If the Klipsch sound is not for you, then get the speakers that you like sound wise. Bill ---------------- Yah but where can I find Klipsch's for a good price?

I can't decide who to go with, now I can't afford Klipsch, so they really aren't an option, my other choices are JBL, Infinity and Cambridge Soundworks, and the prices of each system are as follows.... JBL - $2100 Cambridge Soundworks - $2700 Infinity - $3300 Now that's with very high end components from each company, and I'm really into having a lot of earth shattering bass, so which company would you guys say is the best out of these? Any other suggestions are welcome, thanks in advance.

Does anyone here have one or has anyone here heard one of these systems?

Anyone know? They seem to be hard to find....

wow what a waist of money. the klipsh pro media 5.1 ultra's are all i'll ever need . as far as home theater subs, the klipsh RSW 15 is more then anyone could ever ask for imho....

Plus shipping to Canada would be... uneconomical. ---------------- how do you like it? and how does it compare to the ultra sub? i had one a while ago and i LOVED it!

i must say the creative decoder does look much better....

Anyhow I recieved a replacement and it still occurs from time to time but no where near as bad as it did with my first DDTS. I think it's a design flaw that lays with in ALL DDTS decoders. ---------------- um? your sig makes no sense, theres no such thing as the ultra 7.1's?

The SVS-B4 is a monster earthquake producer, it can dig to the lowest of octaves with force. B4 shows no mercy when it comes to sub bass levels. ---------------- something about your post seems kind of "advertisy" to me....

I once had my PM 2.1 sub set up in my ht system temporarily before my RSW-15 came, let me tell you, I COULD tell a difference, and a huge one. also, I recently took apart one of my 2.1 sat's, it had acoustic stuffing inside, I don't think the sub's would be any different. ---------------- the pro media 2.1 is WAY less powerfull then the pro media 5.1 sub though....

i dont have money to buy some but i could probably scrounge up some stuff to build some anyone have any suggestions on how and what to use to build them for my pro media 5.1 satelite speakers? any help would be greatly appreciated thanks in advance

Build a sonosub or something, and turn the PM sub down. ---------------- i disagree its not that im not satisfied with the bass its way more then enough im just curious if i can make the sub sound better by modding it....

but im really scared to i have it.... im just afraid of screwing something up.... can someone walk me through adding polyfill to my pro media 5.1 duel 8" sub .... thanks in advance any help would be greatly appreciated ....
