The room is small, the components.. I've gone back and forth between so many speakers, even though I've heard so few. The idea of hi-fi shops around here are circuit city and best buy.. sad really. The budget _was_ $600, then $1000, now it's a bit around $1200 for everything.. I'd really like...
I've been a member at HA.org for a while now, so I'll check that out. Thanks. :) The second link covered a bit of what I've already known. Yet that still doesn't explain, wheather I would need a preamp to adjust the volume when used with with a normal amp, or wheather I would need an...
I'd like to connect the M-Audio Audiophile USB soundcard to the amp, then to the speakers. Since the forum doesn't want me posting a URL, I'll put spaces in the URL to the soundcard... just delete them and copy and paste into URL bar if you want to see the soundcard I'd be using. ht...

I heard the RB-75s, even with a sub. It sounded like a clock radio paired with a subwoofer. Klipsch's insanely high treble makes it all sound tinny overall in my opinion. I think you could do better with Paradigm. Although, Axiom's M22s seem to be better for the price than paradigm, with...
Many sites on the internet have compared these Polks to other speakers as saying they sound like the others with a blanket taken off them. Especially the clarity compared to the Infinities(they are often compared to their brot hers sitting by them in Circuit City), which are noticeably cheaper...
