    Talking I have 4 of those in the rear section of my theater

I am glad I got these $49.95 pair speakers. I got them at Best Buy
    They sound very good as rear effects speakers and just for kicks I have had them turned off for a while and there really is a lot missing with only the 8 inchers in the rear on the floor. They add a lot to the soundstage. (FYI, I have 8 rear speakers) Yes, I am the guy with the setup with all the watts and so many of the Sony SS 150, 250, 550 series as some of you might have seen my thread about that. Anyhow, they do sound tremendous for the price. Who cares if they don't really hit 50khz because the only thing that matters is what we do hear and that is very crisp highs without the harshness of horn style tweeters. I'm saying THESE Sony speakers sound good. Preach the word brother Vanilla.

    Talking The 150s cut off at 80hz

The JBL was putting alot more power on the 16khz or so and rolls off around 20khz but my Sonys don't do that I can hear that the highs are powerful and clear aound 20khz since the highs can go upto 50khz. The bass is around 45hz it can go so it's alot lower than my HLS410 that can go 60hz when I used the test tone program. Sony says it only goes 80hz but I have a tone tester and it has gone down to 45hz loud and clear I was sooo amazed.
    Sure you might be able to hear something at lower than 80hz. It will probably not sound right and depending on how much power you are using you are risking damaging the speaker. I haven't even tried to put much pressure on them yet but I have plans to try to put 450 watts through them soon when I convert my home theater to all Behringer EP2500 amps. What is this tone tester program you are referring to? Are there programs we can download for our PCs to test that? I think that would be cool to fiddle with.

    Actually my rears cost about $300 all together. They definitely sound a lot better than just a pair of $150 rears.

    Yeah but do they go up to 50khz? If not, they're useless.

    I like your center channel best. Using a computer power supply to drive a $39 4000 watt car amp is a nice touch!

    Okay these Sony speakers sound not only good with Behringer EP2500 amps giving 450 watts of pure class H goodness but they also sound good with my Yamaha RXV-795a receiver in my bedroom. Not to mention that HD-DVD sounds awesome!!!!!

    I have a Behringer EP2500 amp pushing my two center channel speakers with 450 watts each in parallel mono mode. Ah the wonder of having 900 watts of midrange goodness.

    A Lightning Audio amp with that looks like some Roadmaster speakers from walmart. Surprisingly that can sound good. It sure looks like Roadmaster red but it could be Sony Xplod crappolla. Anyhow, funny pic.
