    yet another subwoofer question

    I saw a couple threads, and seems most people recommend the svs pb10 (at $430), but that is somewhat out of my price range. My stereo setup right now is really lacking in the low bass, so I'd like to get a sub. This is just for music playing, no HT. I would like to stay in the 200-300$ range...

    yet another 'need some help picking out speakers'

    ok, well seems that all the speakers you guys have suggested are rear ported? except the JBL E30, so are those my only choice then? *edit: I was looking around online, seems like there aren't too many front ported speakers - just from looking on the front of the speaker. Do all speakers have...

    hmm ok... what does rear ported mean? are all speakers like that? what about the JBL's I mentioned? How do I know if a speaker is rear ported? whats the advantage or disadvantage to a rear ported speaker?

    hmmm the E30's are also 15inches tall, that won't fit either. Well that's not good. Max I could fit is 13.5inches high. What do I do now haha. Out of the speakers you guys suggested, only the Paradigm Titans fit, but I can't find anyone who sells them online

    those JBL 'arena venue' speakers are 260$, do I really need a seperate subwoofer though? 'cause I can always get a sub later edit: hmm looking at sizes, the 'arena venue' jbl speakers are 15inches high, that won't fit my bookshelf - 13inches. So I guess I can rule those out. The Paradigm...

    yet another 'need some help picking out a receiver'

    I don't particularly want to go with Onkyo - I read they have almost non-existant customer service? would you mind pointing out the Harman Kardon models you are referring to? Are 2-channel receivers usually better then 5/6/7 channel receivers? any particular reason why to go with a 2-channel...

    Looking for a new receiver(posted in the receiver forum) and some new speakers. Budget: $300 for the receiver, $300 for a pair of speakers Target: in a 14x11 room. This means I will not be blasting the volume most of the time. So am I suppose to 'match' up the speakers to the receiver...

    Budget: $300 for the receiver, $300 for the speakers This will be used just for the 2 front speakers - not going to be hooked up to surround sound. Not going to be watching many movies. This will mainly be for listening to music. So what do I look for in a receiver? what kind of THD levels...
