Hi,
I was just wondering how will an amplified PC speakers, like the THX-certified Klispch ProMedia 5.1, compare with a "HT" basic microsystem like the JBL SCS series (in particular the SCS178) with a Yamaha RX-V430? Will the JBL totally kill the ProMedia 5.1 in terms of "cinema quality" sound? How about in terms of pure power/volume? I ask this because, originally I was planning to get the ProMedia 5.1 for my mini-HT PC, but then I found that for an extra $200, I can get a proper receiver+separates setup like the Yamaha and JBL SC178 I mentioned. Can anyone advice me on this decision?
