    Using three EMP EF30C's for front speakers?

    No I didn't give you a chicklet as I rarely even do those. It was probably one of our forum mods and its a pet peeve amoung all of us when readers come online and definately state that speaker X is better than speaker Y without having any experience with speaker Y. As for the speakers you...

    Using three EMP EF30C's for front speakers?

    Mike, There is no reason you can't use EF30Cs for front speakers but I highly recommend you consider the two hottest deals on EMP speakers offered right now as they are bigger bang for your buck. EF30T 5.1 system for $899...

    Iron Man Movie

    saw it this weekend. Good movie overall but got a little carried away at the end when Bridges built a BIGGER Iron Man. I was disappointed they waited to play the Iron Man song all the way at the end of the movie. Overall it was better than I expected from the previews but not as glowing as the...

    Incredible Deal on EMP Speaker Packages

    Cool wife! Yes there is absolutely no margin in the products with a deal like this. Its more of a promotional deal to get the name out and it will be gone by the end of the month.

    Incredible Deal on EMP Speaker Packages

    You are always better off matching subs to fully benefit from modal averaging but I assumed to save you money unless you really wanted to dive in :) From a performance standpoint, I recommend the 30T system over the 50T system but appearance often guides people over performance. Yes the...

    Incredible Deal on EMP Speaker Packages

    The ECA system will sound more tonally consistant than what you've got now but the soundstage likely won't be as large. The EF30T system however will be significantly better than what you have and create that WOW effect and its only $899 shipped with the sub...

    Incredible Deal on EMP Speaker Packages

    I'd go with the ECA system all mounted on the walls with the matching brackets and add a sub. Place the two subs up front close to the satellites and cross them over at 100Hz. Use the following guidelines: http://www.audioholics.com/tweaks/get-good-bass/subwoofer-connection-guide...

    EMP pricing

    The E30s definately have superior bass extension and play a bit smoother at high volumes but the E50s win out on cosmetics. Def techs are nice speakers but tend to be voiced much hotter in the top end whereas the EMP's are more laid back. It all depends on your preference. You could always...

    EMP pricing

    The new little e10s is quite a good performing sub for the money which in these cases costs nothing since EMP is essentially giving it away with these promotions as Zhimbo discovered. These are the 3 hottest deals on the Audioholics E-Store right now but they will expire at the end of May...

    EMP pricing

    These are crazy package deals EMP is allowing us to run to help get the name out on their products. They are actually selling these systems below dealer cost but its only for the month of May while supplies last. This is truly the bargain of the year with respect to speaker deals.

    Incredible Deal on EMP Speaker Packages

    As long as your using a sub it shouldn't be much of an issue. These speakers are there to appease WAF form factor but still perform admirably according to Tom Andry. Personally I'd recommend running 2 subs side by side to the towers for a more seemless blend with a higher xover frequency.

    Best Amp For 3 Ch Use.

    See if you can pick up a used Aragon 8008x3. I had this amp for 4 years and loved it to death but didn't have the rack space to keep it after I kept upgrading other components.
