New member Username: Jake272727Vernal, Ut Usa Post Number: 4 Registered: Sep-04 | well i love the base at the movies and i really could not find any good reviews on any surround sound speakers and all i could find on recievers is everyone likes the one they got i never hear the negetives id like even a thx reciever but again i dont know what really would sound good. |

Have you checked out the set up from Ascend Acoustics, using the CBM 170s for all surrounds and an HSU subwoofer? http://www.ascendacoustics.com/pages/products/speakers/cbm170/cbm170.html they are also selling the HK for a discount, so check them out if you can save a few bucks. |

Silver Member Username: Rh1Post Number: 172 Registered: Jun-04 | Check out Tannoy fusion speakers, this will fit quite nicely in your budget. These speakers are excellent for this price and would match nicely with you H/K receiver. I listened to them yesterday on the H/K 330. Very detailed throughout http://shop4.outpost.com/product/4185153 |

Silver Member Username: Rh1Post Number: 173 Registered: Jun-04 | I would definately go with the H/K receiver over Yamaha. I would agree that you should spend a little less of your budget on the sub than what you have in mind. Even if you like a lot of bass. I would stick to something like $1000 for speakers, $600 receiver, and $400 sub. This would give you what you desire. You could certainly get enough sub with $400 by shopping around. Why not the Svs pb10-isd? |

Silver Member Username: Rh1Post Number: 174 Registered: Jun-04 | You could also try the Earthquake JR, I think those run about $500 |

Silver Member Username: LandrovalPost Number: 762 Registered: Feb-04 | I agree with vols. 1000/400/600 sounds like an ok budget balance. Although I would still put a little more to the speakers. |
