I am new to the forum. I have been reading home theater articles for years. I have a half way decent setup upstairs with my 52" rear projection tv, older HK receiver and polk audio towers and surrounds.
I am building new setup downstairs now. I have a 42" Philips 1080P LCD flat panel. So far it is awesome. I really like the ambilight and it looks great in HD. It is going to be mounted on the wall eventually. I am doing some research on components and speakers right now. I orginally wanted to put inwall speakers. I am swaying a bit from that now due to installation and worried about sound. So next is something that will blend in with the tv. After looking around online today I found some Athena WS-60s on Amazon. They look pretty cool. So I am now leaning towards something like this for my fronts and center. They would mount perfectly by the tv. I am also going to build/buy a decent sub and in ceiling speakers for the rears. But for now my main focus are the fronts first.
So if anyone else has any other suggestions or feedback on the Athenas I would appreciate it.
Thanks
