| Need longer cables, and tempted to go with used Audience AU24e. Thoughts? At least go to the SE upgrade. Should be able to find in the 21/2 meter range for 800 or so. Audience will upgrade any model Great company to deal with | |
| Persona 3fs - Need advice for 2.1 or 3.1 system in bedroom I have a pair of 5f’s. Forget about a center channel.
