I use 5 TB2's for the front left / right / left surround / right surround / centre
I use 2 TB1's (the almost identical predecessor to the TB2) for the rear surrounds.
Like a previous poster, I prefer the TB-2 over the FB1. I found the FB1's on the costly side compared to the TB2's. I went with the TB2s because of this and that the TB-2c (centre) is pretty much identical to the TB2
What I like about the PMC's is that they use the exact driver complement for their centres. With the exception of the CC6 / OB1 combo, the matching centre channels even use the same size cabinets in addition to the same drivers and number of them.
Having listened to the IB1's what struck me was the midrange, it was so open and detailed and does not get compressed at high volumes.
Lastly, if you want to save some $, get the studio finish. This would fit perfectly in a HT because it is flat black. The studio finish is only available on the Pro models and not on the home specific models (FB1, OB6, CC6, GB1)
