I'm a 2-channel guy that decided to add a separate HT system. I currently have a center channel speaker and AV receiver running through my 2-channel preamp's HT bypass. I just purchased rear channel speakers. I hate subs for 2-channel, but are they required for HT?
Although its been a couple of years ago, I had an HSU sub and don't care for them. If it was for music it would be JL Audio, but for HT I submit SVS is a safe bet, offering good value.
I already have GIK room treatment, including bass traps. I don't understand why you say integration for HT is difficult? I won't be using a sub in my 2-channel system.
My front speakers are Monitor Audio PL500's, center Monitor Audio gold 350, rear are Monitor Audio Bronze 6. I'm thinking SVS PB 2000 as a relatively inexpensive sub. Yes, the sub setting is set to no sub.
I called Monitor Audio and they recommended the Gold 350 or Platinum 350 center channel to match the Pl500's. It's my understanding that the rears aren't as critical.
