| Have any experience with Thiel Smart Subwoofers? I used to work for a dealer selling Thiel's the subwoofer is extremely good but it is very expensive if you have to add the integrator. So my question would be do you have CS 7.2? or are you thinking of getting them with the sub? | |

| What to do with Wilson 5.1's main drivers You can refoam them with good results or upgrade to newer speakers. I upgraded to believe it or not a pair of $3,400.00 Usher speakers which were more musical in every way, not quite as transparant, but oh so much more enjoyable. | |
