Hello members my name is Phil. Just wanted to introduce myself and to see what you all thought of my system. Right now I have an Advent 30" widescreen progressive scan HDTV w/DVI input. I know this is not as nice as a Sony or a Panasonic, but I only gave $500 plus tax for it. Man ole man is sure has not disappointed me one bit. Great picture and awesome sound system to boot. I also have a Samsung HD dvd player that also will play SACD's and DVD-Audio. The picture I get when watching DVD is amazing due to the DVI input on the TV and the video upconversion on the Samsung DVD player. The picture with digital cable is nice too but not as good as when watching dvd. My front speakers are MTX towers that come with (2) 12" subs, midrange and tweeter. I know these are not audiophile grade components but let me tell you they do have a good sound to them. No, they are not as nice as some of the Paradigm towers but I only had so much money. Since my preference is for 2.1 music listening I wen with the towers and the Paradigm cc-170. The 170 does a good job but I am compelled to upgrade to the cc-370 as soon as possible. I also plan on buying monitor 3's for my fronts and mini's for the rear. Right now the Titans are doing a good job but I just love the monitor 3's and the mini's. I am very pleased with my PS-1000 v.4 sub. It is in a bandpass box and has absolutely no distortion. I plan on getting another PS-1000 sub for better balance. All of this is powered by my yammie RXV-650 receiver and for now am satisfied with it. Plans include upgrading my yammie to the RXV-2500 as well. Oh, I for got to mention that I originally went with a Paradigm PDR12 sub but got a lot of chaffing noise whenever I listened to Linkin Park, Metallica, and etc. So, I ended up gettin the PS-1000 instead. They did not have the PS-1200 in stock so I said I would try the PS-1000 and I am glad I did. Wow, what a difference. Anyways, let me know what you think about my current system and about my future plans are upgrading. Nice to meet you all. If any of you reside in the West KY area or SW IN area please let me know.
