    Orb Mod 1 or 2 vs Bose? Appease my wife please.

    I love my Bose Pro stuff... though just like for home, it was too much money, but I was counting on a "wow" factor for looks from brides, and to some degree, I got that. Home stuff, I really don't have any interest for myself. My brother in law just showed me his system... 4 ceiling mount...

    Paradigm PS 1000 http://www.paradigm.com/products/archives/paradigm/ps-series/ps-1000 Mine is about 10 years old, but has not been used in at least 5 years. ( Put it away as I was afraid my kids would destroy it, and because it literally shook my room to the point where the ceiling tiles would...

    Orb Mod 1 or 2 vs Bose? Appease my wife please.

    The contractors started work today on my media room ( a 3rd floor 700 SF attic ) I was not prepared to make a choice yet, but they had a job cancel and asked if they could start today instead of 2 weeks from now.... OK, long story short, I have heard OF the Orb speakers, but have never heard...

    How to at least lessen the noise from above?

    My family likes movies, but we're not so into it that we can justify spending a ton on room design. Our contractor is scheduled to start work on our 3rd floor in January - turning it into a HT room / Family Game room. I measured the room.... almost 700 SF, of which most of it sits above our MBR...

    $2000 budget for audio only. WWY Choose?

    Hey all. Thanks for the responses. It is true that I have not heard the Yamaha rcvr, because only one place near me carries it. I went to hear it and they said their whole wall of rcvrs was being re-wired and the Yamaha was not hooked up. That said, I have had 2 Yamaha's before ( still using one...

    $2000 budget for audio only. WWY Choose?

    OK, here is the situation. I could certainly spend more if need be, though my wife may ask for a divorce. We are having our 3rd floor attic converted into a media room starting in January, so I have time to research. The room is about 800 SF, though we don't need sound in more than 1/2 of it...

    This is ONLY for my family room, not my HT.

    I know exactly what I want in my home theater room, which is being built now. This is NOT about that room, but just my family room. I'm looking for something that replicates surround sound ( as much as it can ) without having rear speakers. I'll be using a Pioneer VSX 520K as the amp. My...
