Help me choose.. almost narrowed it down
I currently have a pair of Ascend Acoustic cbm170's as my fronts in my bedroom and a pair of VMPS audio 626r's as my fronts in my stereo setup.
Im looking to combine both systems and just do one very nice HT setup.
Im looking to sell the VMPS 626r's and upgrade to a true 5.1 system.
If I take my CBM 170's and make them my surrounds I can then buy a pair of 340's for the front, a 340 center and the stands all for around +/- $1000.
However my dilemma is Ive only got about $800 currently budgeted and I found this today
http://www.av123.com/products_produc...s&product=69.1
Av123 is willing to let me get the matching center channel instead of the transport (since I have a nice CDP already). The set is $650-$800 shipped. Has anyone heard these?
Last but not least is Athena Audio. I can get a pair of the AF-2 and the matching center for my budget price as well.
Im leaning towards the av123 package, but Ive never heard them. I was somewhat happy with the current cbm170's I have so I considered the Ascend package, but its a little more money.
help......almost got it narrowed down
keep your home theater seperate from your hi fi combining them will really leave you scrathing your head you will lose your 2 channels ability.I dont care what the cost difference.
