JBL or Infinity Speakers (1 Viewer)

[Eric-Miller]

Ok here is the deal Im building my HT and I already have two infinity studio speakers my uncle gave me. Not brand new but still pretty nice. The HT I put together for a friend we used the JBL NSPI setup w/ a PB12. I loved them. So I was going to go with those and mix them with the Infinities in front since I'll be going with a 7.1ch set up. For both the JBL's and the sub it will be about $560 shipped. It would be about $620 shipped to go with the Infinity Entra point 5. No brackets on the Infinity's so I would have to but those and the sub is a 10' instead of a 12". What should I do would I just be paying more for less with the infinity's or is the quality that much better than JBL.
Oh and a side note if anyone has info on speaker placement for 7.1 I would love to read up on it.

I can't comment on the speakers, but http://www.dolby.com/ht/co_br_0110_L...rsGuideEX.html has info about placing the back surround speakers.

For the life of me, I could never figure out this big love affair with the NSP1s. I sell them and I think they sound decent and are a very good value, but it's hard for me to put them on the same page as the Entra Point Fives.

Just my humble opinion, of course.
