Don't let Polk dissuade you from your quest. If my experience with recent Infinity products is any indication you will LOVE your new speakers and how they sound. One more day.

im scared to use this yammy 640 except for 2ch;
it doesnt have that much bass ... it really needs a separate sub (or a bigger amp)

I think it was something like the RT10, but didn't pay much attention to it. Sad part, the Beta's were the only thing that sounded better then my Criterions, before something recently happened, which may have been my 13yo have phone stereo wars with a friend :( 11yo finked on her last night, because I asked her help picking out a new sub amp :) She likes the same model I did, because it looks kewl :)

Good friend has been insisting satellites is the way to go, but I just can't warm up to satellites, any satellite. They all sound tinny to me. Last time I tried was with a brand he highly recommended, at a store he highly recommended. Maybe something had changed, but the listening room was poorly constructed, the speakers were buried at the back of a cheap bookcase, and took over 45 minutes to get operational. As expected, they sounded like crap. Even the Bose sounded better, if nothing else do to better placement. What should be the high profit product, was getting the worse showing....

Regis is Regis Philbin (sp?). He's a morning talkshow host, and also hosted the gameshow "Who wants to be a millionaire?" using his catch phrase, "Is that your FINAL answer?".
