I want to buy my speakers piece-meal. I have to, because I want to wait to buy my receiver. So, for now, I only want to buy the paired fronts. My friend has told me that the entire theater should produce all of the sounds in the 20hz to 20Khz range. He also told me that a good pair of fronts should produce the mid to high frequency sounds. So what is a good range for the fronts, 10Khz to 20Khz, 15Khz to 20Khz, etc.? Also, is there a model that you would suggest?
so your speakers should go to say 45hz or so to really give you a solid sound up front. and most speakers are rated at 20k on the high side so you should be fine there. "now that is just my oppinion" but for me if your speakers can go down to about 45hz then cross at about 60hz with the sub it makes a pretty seamless transition.
and with the new surround modes all the speakers are sent a full signal so the full range the speakers are the better sound you should end up with.
