Best Speakers For Arcam HT Rig?


What is your opinion on either Vandersteen 2c's or Paradigm Studio 4's as front speakers when pairing with Arcam HT amp and DVD player? Would probably go with same brands for the rest of the speakers. Thanks.

Arcam HT amp? Do you mean Arcam receiver or Separates?
If the former, you sould consider sticking with higher sensitivity and efficiency designs, to keep dynamics up! I certainly wouldn't look at 85-86 db designs with a receiver, even though you WILL run them as "small" or 60-80hz cutt-off, which will help.
That said, I'd look at simple crossover or crossover-less designs, maybe horn or Dappolito configured speakers, speakers with active woofers, and other more efficient ht speaker offerings. Alot depends on acoutics and room setup however.
