You could do better on the sub possible an HSU or Outlaw Audio sub. Some people like Yamaha, I don't, give me a Denon or a Pioneer over the Yamaha. The instalation must be a pretty penny to install the inceilings speakers. |

Gold Member Username: John_sColumbus, Ohio US Post Number: 1627 Registered: Feb-04 | I agree with Casey. Regardless of the best audio "match" with the Speakercrafts (hey, we're talking ceiling speakers here guys) a huge plus is complete upconversion of all composite, S-video and component video signals to the receiver's HDMI output. This simplifies installation and even more importantly, navigation of the home theater system. |
