Ok, got the new Rythmik Servo Subwoofers in place. Still messing with set-up but things are sounding REALLY good! I added photos to my system page if you want to see them.

@stfoth - I tried mine with some low powered tube amps and a Class A solid state amp. Frankly, I don’t think 8 watts or less is not enough for these speakers. I’m sure they would sound fine but it won’t get you what these speakers are capable of i...

@stfoth - "Probably going to go with monitors.......looks like the monitors use different tweeters and have different specs from the Double-Impact surround speakers. Curious whether anyone has considered the differences or considered the surrounds...
