Need Recommendations On Surround Speaker Package


I just recently purchased an Adcom GTP-860III Home Theater Preamp & Adcom GFA-7605 125 watt 5.1-Channel Power Amp. I would like some recommendations on surround speaker packages for my new gear. Looking to spend between $1500 -$2000.

Looking forward to reading your feedback....

Exertfluffer,

I saw a short video on that "Comcast on demand". It was a clip about Fluffers in the adult film industry.

Short but entertaining. Not sure if that is what yer handle derives from though.

Anyways, i thought of you when i saw it.
You can get 2 pairs of those Magnepan-on walls(MMGw), the matching center channel(MMGc), and a pair of Outlaw LFM-1 subs. for 2k.

Then you can write a detailed review about them so we can hear an opinion not swayed by advertising dollars.
I second slappy's magnepan recommendation. Maggies and Adcom should be dynamic as all hell. Highly recommended for the dollar. Ditto on Exertfluffer's handle. For some reason, that comes to my mind everytime I see him, weird huh? Speaking of Exertfluffer, I must not have ever heard one of those truly dynamic music/HT demos. In this, I think all of the high-end dealer and shows I gone to have beena failure. You would think one outfit would be able to manage a demo like that! Quite a shame. As far as passive speaker setups for HT go, I like Magnepan fed by Krell amps. Explosive dynamics, IMO. But Adcom would be close enough in this case, although less forgiving than even old Krell KAV series.
Yeah, just for the record, there never has been an "explosive anything" coming out of ANY MAGANAPAN SPEAKER, EVER!!!!! I know, I've sold maggies for years now.
Maggies are dynamically challenged to say the least, and especially challenged when you hit the "GO BUTTON" on your power pedal!
Basically they're very delicate speakers that do better with lower level dynamic material. I mean you're not going to ever get any "sock in the stomach" from a rock performance from a pair of Maggies. Now you might blow the ribbons out of the suckers,(have done that before by having them tip over on the floor by accident) but that's about it. Other than that, they're beautiful, very pretty, clear, detailed speakers as a line...but delicate none the less. I know, I've sold em for years now. Infact when the word Dynamics comes to mind, I DON'T THINK MAGGIES, THAT'S FOR SURE!
Oh, and as for the "Exertfluffer" thing, it's a handle I concockted(he he) for Yahoo mail, because I was running out of ideas that wouldn't need a number mixed in with the letters at the time. And that day my friends and I were making jokes about fluffers, and there you are.
