    Vizio m series

    Hello, I'm currently looking at purchasing a new display. I'm looking at tvs around the $700 range and 55" or larger. With this budget, I'm thinking the vizio m series would probably be the best bang for the buck. I generally like Samsung products, but in looking for a display that is 4k, as...

    what makes a speaker..a good speaker?

    So, now that I have my system mostly complete, im curious. What makes a speaker a "good" speaker? Take the primus line. They are low budget speakers I assume, yet, I have read, on this forum if im not mistaken, that 1) the drivers are some of the best you can get, and 2) infinity puts a ton...

    A couple more questions

    When doing the crawl, where should your sub be located? I've heard that you should place it in your seating position, in your chair or on the couch. I also read that you should move your couch and put the sub in that spot. Which is correct? On the couch, or on the floor where the couch would...

    would this be a good sub..

    Hi, so, after reading an article on the HSU subs, im leaning toward one of them. SVS just is too far out of my price range, as is Axiom. The primus PS312 just didnt appear to be as good as the HSU subs. this will be paired with a pair of Primus 363 mains, P163 surrounds, and PC351 center...

    $31,500.00 speakers???

    Ok, ive been looking around at speakers, and there are some good ones out there. I can see spending a couple grand on speakers might get you some good sound. I could, somewhat, reasonably see, spending about $9,000 on a set of 7.1 speakers. However, I have to know, what could you possibly...
