    Thanks all for the answers. Hmm, never thought of using the Bose as surround channel speakers. Not a bad idea. My ceiling is 14ft high, and already have flush mount speakers up there, but they need to be moved back and down. Shouldnt be hard to snake a wire from them back to where I want and...

    Center channel speaker - need advice

    Bob, Thanks for the reply. I was looking at the Yamaha rx-v3300, sony str-da7es recievers as well as the kenwood 6070. I have bose acoustimass 5 front channel, but was not sure I would keep them until how I saw they sounded with a sub and new rears. But if all 3 front should match, I may have...

    Advice on Reciever and subwoofer

    Thanks for the reply Bill and Chad. I plan to look at the SVS closely. Which JBL did you have, the 250 or 400 watt version, and was the Velodyne really that much better? Is the SVS that much better? I have researched some recievers. Anyone have any input on the Sony STR-DA7ES, or the Yamaha...

    Advice on Reciever and subwoofer

    Chad, Thanks for the fast reply. I will look at your sub, and already visited the site where they sell it. Which works/sounds better - box or cylinder? And what is the warranty on the subs? I will check crutchfield, forgot they carry everything, good place to look. What about the Pioneer...

    Advice on Reciever and subwoofer

    Chad, Thanks for the reply. where can I see those subwoofers, and what do you mean by WAF? For the receiver, I think 6.1 at a minimum, but should I consider 7.1 as the technology is newer? I like to be able to hook up my sony dvd/sacd player, direct tv, cd and phono. Also, have a separate...

    Advice on Reciever and subwoofer

    I dont mind spending a little more if needed for updated and better quality equipment. I had envisioned spending from $800 to $1200 for a reciever, from $400-600 for a subwoofer, and around $200+/- per spkr for rear left and right. I also was looking at Infinity and Polk tower speakers at $400...
