Axiom M60's--Front (absolutely incredible speakers)

Infinity Video1--Center (older center but still sounds good)

Sony--Rear surrounds (these have to go soon, they are horrible)

Infinity ps-12--Subwoofer (not too bad sounding, a bit boomy though)

Fronts- Snell JIII's My wife's that she bought from Tweeter's in college. After upgrading all the others I hope to get some Monitor 5s for better timbre matching.

Center- Paradigm cc-170 Soon to be upgraded to a cc-370.

Surrounds- Paradigm cinema adps soon to be upgraded to apd-170s.

Sub- Paradigm Pdr-10 Not bad for my small room but hope to upgrade to pw-2100 or Martin Logan grotto within a year.

It took me some time ( months ) like the rest of us to make a decision on what speakers to buy. Now throw in the fact of being married makes it worse ( speakers size) .
I had it down to 3 sets of speakers and did the best thing i took her with me ( lol ). I find that making the spouse part of the decision process worked well. I got what I wanted and she got to hear first first hand how it will sound ,( it's a plus she like loud music ). she just hates loud movies ,( so yes i get caught raising the volume when in the quiet parts like the rest of us). Ok so here they are .
FRONTS-------- nht evolution t5 system
CENTER-------- nht evolution m5
REARS----------nht evolutoin m5
SURROUND BACK--nht sb1 times 2
SUB------------velodyne fsr18 only 300 ever made 18inch servo controlled sub .
Now speakers are a personal preference but this is the clearest system i have ever heard. The louder is get the clearer it sounds.

Mains - B&W 602
Center - none, used to have a B&W CC6, sounds better without it
Rear - $50 Sony's from Best Buy, surprisingly good
Sub - None, the B&W's do bass pretty well, just not LOW bass. I am planning on buying a PB-10 from SVS.
