NO more Monster products for me! Apparently they have chosen to use their excess profits to sue the ass off anyone they choose. I beleive they have a right to protect their trademark... but only in the specific business areas that they produce specific products in. It looks like they have chosen...

The 170's are an amazing speaker! Definately give a try. Randy

Check out the Ascend Acoustics website. I'd strongly suggest the CBM-170's for the fronts, the CMT-340 center and HTM-200's for surrounds...$808 plus $24 shipping. The 170's would need a few inches of space behind for the port to breath (use the omni-mounts that Ascend sells). The 240's are...

I hear ya Curtis. That statement I made was wide open! I shoulda said, "as faithful as I can get with as few dollars as I have!" (or my wife lets me have!) Randy

I haven't seriously demo'd many systems yet. For the last year I've sampled about everything in the local chain electronic stores a bit- just enough to realize that most of the popular box systems are junk. My bro-in-law used to build his own speakers and amps and I'm sure they had their faults...

The forums have been a big help. It seems everyone has a different taste in speaker sound and maybe...

Thanks for the reply guys. Took the time today to audition the complete Klipsch Reference line. My impressions were that up to and including the RF-35 line that I was less than impressed. HT did sound a tad harsh. Moving up to the RB-75 and of course the RF-7 things changed around tho. I ran...

Hello everyone! I've been reading the posts here for the past month or so. Great forum with knowledgable posters. I hope you can help me out here. I'm putting together a HT system and have become interested in a couple bookshelf units- the Klipsch RB-35 and Axiom M22ti both costing about $400...
