Ascend, SVS, or RBH

I have SCS 01's across the front w/ a NSD 12/2 sub. The speakers are great for the price but the real kicker for me - matching fronts. I've read alot about having the same speaker across the front but until I finally heard/did it - I didn't believe the difference. FYI - my ears aren't tuned enough yet to hear the difference in a speaker on it's side (traditional center) vs. verticle.

Woot!!! Well I talked the wife (it only took 7 massages ) into the Sierra's and placed the order yesterday. Looks like they shipped Monday evening. I can't wait to rediscover my music collection with this setup.

Ordered Ascend Sierra's accross the front with 170SE's for the rears. Also ordered these stands for a nice clean look.

We just moved in last weekend so hopefully I'll stay busy enough not to check the package tracker on the hour. I pre wired the house but just realized I ran plain speaker wire for my powered sub. Can I use that or will I need to run coax? I could route it through the basement.

Sub cable

Ebby,
Report back on the Sierra's, sounds like a great system.

You will need coax for the sub cable. The receiver will have a single RCA output for the sub/LFE signal.

Congratulations on the Sierra purchase. Hope you get many years of enjoyment out of them.

I'll post some pictures and review once I get them up and running. Looks like they'll be here on Monday. Can't wait .......... The speaker stands are on back order, but I'm sure I'll find somewhere to set them.
