    New home, need to pre-wire & determine what to use

    Is there any reason to choose Infinity over Polk for all of the front speakers? I see a little difference in freq response. For an ignorant person like me, the only thing that glares at me is the Polk having 1 woofer and Infinity having 2.

    New home, need to pre-wire & determine what to use

    It ballooned because I could stagger the purchases. I have to do the in-ceiling and cabling during construction, but the in-walls can wait. I'd prefer to do it all at once, but oh well. Does the center not need to be laid horizontally? I don't know that there will be space between studs to...

    Thanks for the reply. I budgeted $400 for the Onkyo (will get it factory refurbished) and $400-500 for speakers. One big issue is where to have the speakers located on those image which diagram the area. The little black boxes on the wall were my starting point for positioning. I can put...
