An excellent set, you should be able to get a deal for HK receivers with this company, too. Impeccable service and knowledgeable folks. |

New member Username: BradenPost Number: 4 Registered: Sep-04 | berny will those be enough to fill the room? which HSU would fit this room size? i have been told to go with SVS but not sure here?? also, would it be worth the extra money to upgrade to 340, or would the 170 do me... Novice here, need some expert advice.... Thanks Todd |

Unless you are planning on actually spacing the speakers through out the whole length of a 45 foot room then it would be advisable. Choosing between HSU and SVS is a tough choice, it would come down to which one you want to spend money on, as they are both worth the price. And both are capable of filling your room. |
