Keith, thanks for your input on M&K. And Sean, your concern is appreciated but as John has assured me, shipping is not too costly. But John, I would like your take on the M&K since you must have also heard it. Hope you don't mind me getting a second opinion Keith :)

Chu Gai, Ergghhh.. more money???!!! Lets go out and see if my money tree is blossoming!

Chu Gai, get ready to laugh. My room measures about 30 feet by 20 feet I think... its just the perfect distance to watch my Sony 61" tele. But small or not I want good sounds and I DON'T CARE IF I HAVE A TINY, TEENY SPACE TO WORK WITH!!! I WANT MY HT SYSTEM!!! :angry: :angry: :angry: :angry...

Kevin T, thanks for input on Thiel's 2.3. Mike Ch, I need to listen to the Electra 936 again for music before I make my final, final decision. KeithR, I've also heard favourable things about the M&K. Will see if we have em here. Forgive the ignorance but are they M&K by M&K? Alex, you have...

And now I have to read Paul's message. Oh God help me! Paul do tell me what speakers were they that you got finally. How can you peak our interest without letting us in on this! Okay, really, really gtg. Thanks again guys and take care!

Mike Knapp, Thank you so much for the info. I dunno. Taking a leap of faith and all... is there netting underneath to break my US$10,000 fall? Sigh. Why have things got to be so difficult. But you know what, I believe you, that the Rockets are a blast. So many before you have said so. As...

Hi all, I'm back but just for a bit. You know, in retrospect --- after taking a step back and reflecting what I had experienced at my dealer's showroom, --- I have come to conclude that the B&K AVR307 receiver and JM Lab Electra 936 is a match made in (if I may say so) Lucas' and...

Here I am again, at a crossroads only this is three pronged. Sigh! Mike Ch, I was so excited about the prospect of reviewing the Mini that I called the dealer immediately. (Got this Audio book with all the addresses) Total cost for seven speakers and a woofer is shy of US$25,000 by a mere...

Mike, About my trust in reviewers, call it a journalist's intuition or just gut feeling, but I am of the opinion that only when a person is passionate about something can he or she really express himself/herself completely, honestly and whole-heartedly. Should he/she not be enthusiastic...

Mike, I just have to rely on the reviews. To audition all those speakers would just kill me. Look at your list alone:frowning: And now, I'll surely have to add to the three, this other JM Lab line you've suggested. Oh dear... when is this going to end... But I'm also concurrently elated...

Hi Alex, I had read somewhere about that problem with the Thiels too. But someone said it needs some breaking in. And they swore that the Thiels started blossoming and blooming with time. How else would you explain the way they sounded at the showroom? I take it that you didn't keep the...

Thanks Chu Gai. Went to the recommended site and discovered that I'd read the review before. Thanks all the same... also for the extra info about the speakers having parts made in China. Interesting indeed. Maybe that's how the company's been able to price their speakers a tad lower than...

Kevin, Thanks for the site add. Will definitely look it up. Will welcome more input though. :)

PomingF and Chu Gai. Sorry, so, so sorry for not having replied earlier. Very new to this and didn't really know that the response would be like super prompt. Firstly, thanks PomingF for your opinion on the Rockets. But that still leaves the question of comparison among the three systems...

Hi, this floundering newbie needs help. Just ordered a B&K ref50 and ref 200.7. Now looking for speakers and subwoofers. After going through a whole load of literature (on the HTF and AVS forums) I've narrowed things down to JM Labs' Electra 936, Onix's 750 Rockets and Thiel CS1.6 or maybe...
