Hello again guys, Been reading alot of the treads here about diffrent speakers. In about a month i will have the money to buy mains , center,rears and a sub. So my room is 20x15 basement,carpet wall to wall, two small windows covered by cloth shades,two doors,cloth seating. So iv been looking at B&W,Paradigm,Monitor audio,JMfocal,PSB,dynaudio bookshelf mains cause that all i can have for mains! I havent been out listening yet just collecting info on all these speakers. I went to a store today that sold both Monitor audio and Paradigm speakers, he was really pushing the Paradigm monitor 5 whick looked very nice! But did not have time to listen to any of them yet.I will go listen to all these in a bout two weeks. I was just wondering why he whould push paridigm more then monitor audio?He told me that the cost of the shipping gets put into the monitor audio's because of being made over seas?He did not slam any other speakers that i brought up on my list that im going to listen to.With so many speakers out there its hard to know where to start! The only componet i did get is a Yamaha 1300 receiver. So i guess i was just wondering whats the best way to go listen to these speakers, with a test cd of some sort. My own music and movies? How can i pick out the different sounds when ive always had crap speakers? Gues im drowning in all the speakers out there. I will be useing the setup for both music and movies,music being rock,pop,jazz,classic. Movies being action,adventure,drama,sci-fi. So i guess im all over the boards with my taste. Oh and i like alot of boom so ive narrowed my subs down to the servo-15,HSU,SVS PB2-plus.
