Interesting suggestion. I know altec has a solid rep amongst professionals, but this is crossing into an area in which I have little expertise. While I mentioned that I want limitless dynamics, I don't want to sacrifice sound quality either. I'm still looking for a system with the refinement and clarity of top notch home equipment; commercial horns scare me a little. Can the altecs hold their own in that respect? Thanks!

Thanks for the advice. The mid-bass section will have separate amplification...so would the efficiency of the Klipsch lineup actually matter? The lascala top sounds interesting. Thanks!

2nd time poster here...I'm looking for an LCR setup with a rather unique set of demands. I'm designing my new HT to have a custom array of sealed 12" mid bass drivers, which I was planning on running from 80 to around 800 hz. I'll need a 2 way speaker to cross with this mid-bass setup. This is designed around movies, not music. I'm looking for effortless dynamics and great detail...around 800hz and up. The Klipsch THX ultra LCR's were some of the intial offerings that interested me...2 way, powerful, efficient. The RF-7II is an interesting 2 way tower. I've also considered the active Genelecs and the Seaton Sparks. What options am I missing? It's a non-traditional setup, so I haven't been able to browse any boards for relevant opinions. What speakers do you think would fit my demands the best? Thanks in advance for any advice...you guys are the experts, so I really appreciate your input.

Hi all... I'm looking for a set of LCR speakers to complete my system. They will fill a small to medium sized room (18' x 16'). Deep bass will be provided by a great pair of subs, so anything below 70hz probably isn't too important for me. From 70 on up, however, I do want effortless dynamics, output, and as large of a soundstage as I can get in my less than ideal room. I'm looking at the following options: 1. KL650 THX. These seem ideal, but I really just want to see how they compare to my other options, because they are pretty far above budget. 2. KL525 THX. 3. RF-63 + RC64 4. RF-82 + RC62 5. Heresy III. These intrigue me. The knock on them seems to be the deep bass, so if they can offer that trademark heritage output and sound minus the bass my subs will take care of anyway, they may be a great fit. So for almost 100% HT, how would all of these options compare with eachother when matched with great subs? Thanks in advance for your advice!
