Fronts- Snell JIII's My wife's that she bought from Tweeter's in college. After upgrading all the others I hope to get some Monitor 5s for better timbre matching.

Center- Paradigm cc-170 Soon to be upgraded to a cc-370.

Surrounds- Paradigm cinema adps soon to be upgraded to apd-170s.

Sub- Paradigm Pdr-10 Not bad for my small room but hope to upgrade to pw-2100 or Martin Logan grotto within a year.

Hey be nice, i bought those on a poor Army pvt's pay like 7 years ago. Plan to purchase a full Swans or Paradigm setup (still on the fence) with an SVS sub in the next month or two.

It took me some time ( months ) like the rest of us to make a decision on what speakers to buy. Now throw in the fact of being married makes it worse ( speakers size) .

I had it down to 3 sets of speakers and did the best thing i took her with me ( lol ). I find that making the spouse part of the decision process worked well. I got what I wanted and she got to hear first first hand how it will sound ,( it's a plus she like loud music ). she just hates loud movies ,( so yes i get caught raising the volume when in the quiet parts like the rest of us). Ok so here they are .

FRONTS-------- nht evolution t5 system

CENTER-------- nht evolution m5

REARS----------nht evolutoin m5

SURROUND BACK--nht sb1 times 2

SUB------------velodyne fsr18 only 300 ever made 18inch servo controlled sub .

Now speakers are a personal preference but this is the clearest system i have ever heard. The louder is get the clearer it sounds.

Mains - B&W 602

Center - none, used to have a B&W CC6, sounds better without it

Rear - $50 Sony's from Best Buy, surprisingly good

Sub - None, the B&W's do bass pretty well, just not LOW bass. I am planning on buying a PB-10 from SVS.

Hi,

Tommy_E,which B&O old speakers,(out of curiosity).

I had S45's I think, bought with the 4000 processor. Anyway it had a teak or rosewood finish and 8 FM presets. I bought them in Toronto in 79. The woofer went on one of them and a guy in England wanted to buy the other woofer last year.

I told him if he paid for shipping he could have it for nothing because I think the other one just dried out. It certainly wasn't from long hrs of rough play.

My last response to this question was a couple of years back so here's an update.

Fronts: Totem Model 1 Signatures including the Signature

Center.

Rears: Totem Model 1 Bi-Wireable but not Sigs.

Rears B: Axiom Qs4 Dipoles

Effects: Monitor Audio Bronze B1's for DD-EX and DTS-ES

SUB: DefTech SuperCube II

For HIREZ music,I only use the Totems + Sub and set my reciever to Pure Direct which defeats any video circuitry.

For Home Theatre,whether its HDTV or DVDs all speakers are incurred.

Frank, I really like the ATI, my speakers are 4 ohm and the amp never runs more then just warm, not bad for almost 400 watts per side. The sound is great also, open and effortless.

Sending you a link with ATI test, it won't let me link it here.

I have just about all JM Labs. I like them very much. They are good on music as well as movies. I can't see me changing them anytime soon.
