I'm FINALLY finished: new 2-channel system

I am about to do the same. Abandon the HT to upgrade the 2-channel system. I hope we're doing the right thing! ;)

I did the same a few years back and I'm glad I did. If your as anal as I am, trying to find the right position for two speakers was a whole lot easier than 5 or even 7. The music was a whole lot better, and I have time to listen instead of fiddling.......Hmmmmm.....come to think of it I still fiddle with stuff. It never ends.

I've owned 2 piece Linbrooks and, now, Woodmeres and can tell you that your new speakers should surely satisfy!

What's "HT", anyway?

Best wishes,

You'll be glad to be rid of all that HT crap.

Hook yer DVD player up to the new rig, watch movies in stereo.

I've heard the 275's, they're great, never heard the Tylers however read lots of good things. Sounds to me like you are on the right track.

I fell into the HT trap back in the late 90's. "Be all end all". Yep, helicopters buzzed around my head, explosions shook the room....yadda yadda yadda.......then I'd go for some straight two-channel classical and the thing would just fall down. Two-dimensional, flat soundstage.

I had to come to the realization that I'm a two-channel old-timer. Life's been good since ~!

Best,

Paul :-)

You're going to love your new system. I went through a similar experience a year ago when I was buying my system. Whether to go with HT or 2-channel. I chose the latter. I felt it was easier to do 2-channel right than HT correctly. I'm very glad I did. To get the kind of sound quality you're looking for with HT, you'd need 5 of those 275's plus a surround processor just to have music coming at you from all directions. It's not worth the extra money, in my opinion, unless you have it to blow. You made the right decision. Say goodbye to your HT and start enjoying your new system.
