So I am looking at buying my first Audio system ever from BB. Having auditioned the F-3's before, I liked them but that was months ago and I will be auditioning them again. Realistically, these speakers will be used for HT and such, not as much music, though some. Current setup I am looking at: 2 F-3's 2 B-3's 1 C-3 For receivers, I am up in the air, but I am looking at Pioneer VSX-1016TX to try to fill the gap, my inputs I have: 1 hdmi 2 component 5 Composite S-video I live in an apartment, I don't have the exact dimensions, but the living room looks something like this: __ | / where areas of the left side of the living is wide open, so wall mounting is not an option. First of all a few questions on this possible future purchase, since I am rather new at this: 1. Will I need a sub? I havent added them in, because it comes close to the top of my budget and if I can get away with watching movies without one and still sounding great, that would be fantastic? 2. Your opinions on the speaker setup, I assume they will match perfect because they are of the same line. How well will they fit my apartment design? 3. How does the receiver hold up to what I need? 4. Never having done this before, what will I need for wiring and will monoprice.com fill that gap for me? What options should I use for audio, optical or coaxial? What is the difference? Any help would be appreciated, thanks!
