Maybe you could get the following Polk RTi6's (fronts) Polk RTi4's (surrounds) Polk CSi3 (center) I think this comes to about $880 from circuit city. Leaves you enough to pick up a sweet HSU sub and the wiring. The one you suggested sounds great but I thought that they may break your...

Again, I am returning for some much needed advice. I need to buy a subwoofer to complete my system. I have been offered an Energy ES-12XL sub for AU$500. The person has had it for 18 months but lives in an apartment and its a 'bit' loud. My problem is, I cant listen to it as its in...

Gotcha That is really good service.

The 'bum' one being the PV500? Is their a quality issue with B&W subs, or is this just one of those unlucky circumstances when you get a dud one? I couldnt get around to listening to them yesterday, I will attempt to take a long lunch today. ... LUNCH PASSES BY... Just got back. Coudnt...

Excellent! I will check that one out this afternoon. To give you an idea on pricing here in Australia, the Polk PSW303 sub costs AU$699. And I can purchase a second hand HSU VTF-2 Mk I sub for AU$700. Its frustrating when I see that I could purchase a HSU sub new, and possibly a better one...

Change in plans. Proposed system is now as follows: Receiver: Yamaha RX-V650 Fronts: Polk RTi6 Surround: Polk RTi4 Centre: Polk CSi3 But I need help on a sub. I listened to the Polk PSW303 and hated it. Well 'hate' is such a strong word. It just didnt have enough bass. I thought perhaps...

The Canadian Yamaha website is by far the best. The Aussie one is crap! I just thought I would say that first. I looked at the back panel but there isnt any switch. So I checket out the manual and wo'la ... on page 23 for the Asia/General Models there is a 'magical' switch. Thanks for...

Being from Australia I was not going to purchase this online from the US based on the 120V operating voltage. In Australia, its 240V. I belive the frequency is the same but in any case. I have recently heard that at the back of the Yammy, there is a switch which enables tbe use of the...

Here I am thinking I am about to puchase the Energy Take 5+1 system (possibly the Encore) based on a friends recommendation when I stumble across a distributor here in Australia for Polk. I have heard good things about both companies mind you. Today I listened to a RTi4 (x2) and a PSW505...

I am looking at purchasing one of the following satellite surround systems for a Yamaha RX-V650 receiver. 1) Energy Take 5+1 (A$1000) 2) Energy Take 5.2 3) Energy Encore (A$1800) I would love to purchase the Encore system but I am contrained by my lack of money. So my question is whether...

Thanks for your reply Stephen. The brands available are as follows Energy Klipsch JBL Yamaha Sony Boston Acoustics Thats all I can think of from the top of my head. Alot of brands I have heard mentioned in these forums arent available here in Australia. Unless ofcourse I am looking...

I have decided on the following system. I will be purchasing it through amazon.com as I can not purchase a silver coloured Yamaha Receiver in Australia. And generally it seems cheaper purchasing it online even after taking into account exhange rates and shipping charges. Receiver: Yamaha...

I agree with you. Bookshelf speakers are what I am leaning towards due to the fact that I do move around a lot. I think I will be purchasing a Yamaha Receiver. Not sure as yet which one but I am assuming it will be about middle of the range. Its odd, here in Australia they dont seem to sell...

I have been reading many threads over the last couple of days and no doubt all have been useful. I am new to building a home theater system, so this forum was a godsend. The basic jist I have got is that 60% of ones budget should be devoted to speakers, 30% to a decent receiver and about...
