papashawn Posted October 24, 2006 Share Posted October 24, 2006 I recently came upon a good deal for a pair of Forte II's. When talking about stereo equipment with my boss, he told me that he had a set that he bought right out of college in '89 but he doesn't use them anymore. I jumped on the offer and got them for $400. Now I'm trying to find a good center channel to match these guys, but the Academy is so hard to come by that I have been considering other options. My original plan was to get a set of Axiom's for all 5 channels. How do you feel their VP150 center channel would pair up with my new Forte II's? They have three 5.25" aluminum woofers and two 1" titanium tweeters. Any input would be greatly appreciated! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Frzninvt Posted October 25, 2006 Share Posted October 25, 2006 Yep, the Academy is the center speaker you want for those Forte II's. It will blend seamlessly, anything less is a sonic mismatch. Another pair of Forte's would work well as your rear speakers. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
