5.1 Speaker Packages....Any Worthwhile....

Definitive Technology ProCinema 1000 or 800. It has won a few awards. I have heard it and it sounds GREAT! Best Buy carries it now.

Thanks guys. Keep 'em coming. I may stick with trying to do some matching of my own. The ones I've SEEN are mostly computer speakers or of a quaility that, well... has me looking deeper into the ole cash satchel. I saw some PSB's that look of interest (having experience with PSB), though they were more than the amount I stated.

Uh, oh. Kiss of Death.... ;-)

Forgot to mention that I looked at the Ascend site awhile back and was put off that their flagship monitors, at $800 a pair, have but a 30 DAY warranty. Yikes.

Yes, they do. You read it right. I was there the other day in their Magnolia center. Definitive Technology all over the place. Also, they had Martin Logan, Vienna Acoustics, Mirage, Klipsch (upper end stuff). All hooked up in Theaters.
