Wanderingmoo, no sure if anybody will freak out here, but I don't care. I have been out of the audio thing for 10 yrs, had ml aerius i and vandy 2swq. Decide to refresh. I will be selling both cheap if anyone looking. I started my hunt for 2 ch and HT, 2 months ago. I went a few places and finally went to audio video therapy in Nashua NH. Worth the hour trip, I love on seacoast. John is the owner and does an excellent job finding what is best for u. I myself will be getting an avm 60 and using my bat amp. Check the place out, very big place, 3 story building and carries tons of speakers. I think i will look into the svs line for subs, sb 3000 or maybe sb 4000 and definitely 2 of them. I will keep my rear speakers for now. I went with a used pair of winds, because I love their sound and the price was good with full warranty. Good luck Pete.
Speaker recommendation for Home Theater
Ok. I need some advice. Here is some context: I’ve been out of the HiFi game for over 10 years. My last set of speakers were a Magnepan 5.1 setup with 1.6QR mains, CC3 center and surrounds and a REL B3 Sub. These are starting to buzz due to old age and i figured I might just upgrade all around. I do love the sound of the Maggies in a surround setup but could be up for a change. Total budget would be about $15k (+/-) for a 5.1 setup. I’d also be open to going 7.1.4 with some Atmos action down the road...
I don’t do much 2 channel listening anymore - kids and forced-family-fun have ruled out time for me to sit anywhere for more than 30 seconds except when watching movies.
What say you?

I believe in keeping it simple: First, get a Vizio 5.1 soundbar: https://www.bestbuy.com/site/vizio-smartcast-36-5-1-channel-soundbar-system-with-5-wireless-subwoofe... Then, get a single unbalanced interconnect to go from soundbar to TV: https://mitcables.com/product/oracle-ma-x-rev-3-interconnects-rca/ Most importantly, make sure you get a good surge protector: https://mitcables.com/product/pmc-power-management-console/ Voila! The perfect $25,000 system! Okay, it ends up over $30K, but you haven't lived until you've heard what a $20,000 RCA cable can do! (jk, hope it works out well for you--interested in seeing what you end up with) |
