| New Theater Room Help Well I'll throw in my two cents on this one;1. Stewart is right on the money about the screen. Avoid a perforated screen. But I'd offer different reasoning. One of the problems I see with projectors is a lack of optimal lumen power or brightness c... | |

| Good Bass Floorstander under 1K Hey. There is a pair of Usher CP-730s demo pair for 850 in the listings. I heard all the Usher stuff at CES but I dont recall this model specifically. It does list extension to 34 HZ. Maybe that would be a decent consideration. | |
| Good Bass Floorstander under 1K Well a used pair of SOliloquy 5.3is is a great suggestion. But good luck on finding a decent used pair. The wanteds listing on these gets longer as the supply of used gets shorter. Totem Rainmakers are good. I actually have a pair of PSB alphas th... | |

I bought a pair of Ascend CBM 170s after listening to the Lings and the Ascends side by side about 3 weeks ago with another listener on material all familiar to me on my reference system.Neither is really the greatest thing since sliced bread comp... | |
| HSU Ventriloquist for Bedroom HT and Music AS fra as other speaker choices for bedroom HT-- ie somewhat small and not too pricey--there are many choices. One I might consider is the E series from AAD. ( American Acoustic Development.) The reason that I like this setup is that their center ... | |
| HSU Ventriloquist for Bedroom HT and Music Hmm. Dr Hsu audtioned these for me himself at CES 2005. He is a respectable and pleasant man and his company is trustworthy as well.However, I was completely unimpressed by the Ventroloquist speaker system; the sub was just fine however. | |

| Center speaker OR Full range as Center speaker? I use a dedicated center for HT. It is placed on a non-enclosed shelf with tweeter near the level and in plane with the tweeters on my mains. There are also stands for the center alone as an alternative.I use an entirely different rig and room for... | |

For multi-channel audio, fullrange is obvious and also assume dipole/bipole is out as well in that instance for surrounds.WE have been so focused on left and right channels for so many decades and its g... | |
