decibel man Something tells me that if I could talk my non understanding wife into letting me have the speaker system you mentioned, I would be a very happy man. Sounds like a great system. I just put it together at www.goodguys.com. They have the RSW-10 Subwoofer , the RS-3II Surround Speakers , the RF-3II Floorstanding Loudspeakers and lastly the RC-3II Center Channel Speaker ... All for a nice price of $2374.96. OUCH! But I am sure it's worth it. Oh man, drool city. So is Klipsch really better than Bose? I honestly don't know. ------------------ m00n This message has been edited by m00n on 04-11-2002 at 01:58 AM

Oh sorry talkToKeith. Ok, so I have a DVD player: Toshiba SD3205 I am looking at spending not more than $2000.00 total. I was figuring on splitting it between a receiver and speakers. A receiver only if I need one. If I do, I was thinking about going with the AVR 520 As far as the room, well, it could't be more less home theater friendly. The only place where I can put my TV is along one wall. (I tried to do a layout of the room using dashes and pipe symbols, but the app removed all extra white spaces. I would most likely go with floorstanding speakers I want something that sounds great, but at the same time, I am not looking for something that would make a sound engineer cry with pride either Thanks ------------------ m00n This message has been edited by m00n on 04-11-2002 at 12:54 AM

Hey all. So I am not too educated in home audio, but I do know that I like my Klipsch PC speakers. So, I am wanting to look into a home theatre speakers set. I want at least 5.1. I know there is now 7.1 or something like that. That too would be cool. What would you all suggest? Say in the $1000.00 price range? Thanks All ------------------ m00n
