Thumbs up on a new project

[Phil Taylor]

As soon as I read his post I was thinking the same thing. "You took the words right out of my mouth".

Well guys -- I my defense I did note that I am a budget minded video oriented guy and that most folks here are hard core audioholics . To me the video is the most important part but the audio is a very close second. I guess that's why this forum isn't called "videoholics" . One can get a very nice set of speakers for $800 or so from Athena or Klipsch. Sure, they won't be audiophile quality but will serve the average listener very nicely. Y'all may question my only recommending $800 for speakers but I respectfully question the recommendation of a projector with inferior specs and features for $700 less than the street price for the Panasonic model I suggested. And the suggested screen is a rather poor quality vinyl model as well when you can get a 126" 16x9 Carada Precision Series screen for well under $1000 including shipping.

No defense needed. Everyone has their own tastes, and their own thoughts. That's what makes this place so diverse. That's what makes this place "Audioholics".

Now if you put surround speakers on the ceiling, or wrap your electronics in paper. Well then you might have a problem here.

At least I didn't recommend he get a Bose Acoustimush system.

You would have been BANNED if you had done that!
