I had 2 pie... | |

| 7.1 4 k Processor Rec Good luck. At that price I cant recommend a McIntosh piece but thats what I would do , find a pre owned McIntosh that does what you need or bite the bullet and buy new. Matt | |
| Somewhat of an oxymoron - speaker stands for the floor for bookshelf speakers. Solid stands are super important so they are not wobbly and loose allowing lost energy...not good.

| Subwoofers: Ported or sealed? Acoustic suspended sub = Boring! Ported = Bueno! :-) | |
