What do you think about Magnepan speakers?

I'm not that big into special effect movies and I care more about the story and video, so rear speakers don't excite me. As long as the center channel is loud and clear and the sub is not boomy or muddy I'm happy. I would rather spend my money on the best 2ch audio I can afford as well as the best TV.

BR,
I'm with you. There has only been one movie that I've watched where the surround really made a big difference. But, then I'm not into the latest big-bang movie thriller. We're matching through the 20+ Shirley Temple movies right now and even if there was surround sound back then: How much special effects can you provide when ST sings "On The Good Ship Lolly Pop"?

On a funny note, it is so much fun to watch my 6-8 year old at the edge of there seats for these ST movies. I mean: nail biting, screaming at times "Oh No!". They are so cute...

Best Regards,
Stan
