Hey guys,
I will be moving soon and want my onkyo system to stay in my room, so I want to do a 7.1 system my living room.
"Bang for the buck" is very important. I already bought the $499 Costco HK 325.
I'm young so I like my music kinda loud and in your face, then again I might not know what good speakers sound like... our downstairs system is jbl N38, n center, n26, $300 sony reciever.
I have went to best buy and I think I decided on:
S38 fronts $275
S center $130
s26 side surrounds $150
s26 back surrounds $150
--------------------------
7.1 for $705 and I can get them locally for that but have to pay tax.
and I have decided on the svs sub either the 25-31 or the b stock 20-39.
My question to you, "Is there a better value in speakers than these jbl's for the price range?"
I have looked into HTD, Axiom, Dalquist, Ascend, but these are all a little more expensive.
Now to complicate things I would be willing to spend a little more on a 5.1 setup at first then buy 2 more surrounds down the road.
...........Is there a 7.1 or 5.1 setup for this price range that will obviously outperform the jbl studio series that I should seriously consider.
Thanks, I have Money in hand, ready to buy......Oh and b stock should be considered as I like good value.
