Premier-Acoustic is a new company. It got mixed reviews when i was doing research a year or so ago. From what I read, buyers were happy with their purchase. But if you are looking at these, I rather go with BICs Acoustech or Venturi or the SVS at around $1K or the current sale at av123.com if there are any speakers left.

One of the standby's are the BIC's for the seriously budget constrained.

Check out the DV62CLR-S for ~ $100

And

DV62si for ~ $110/pair

So center + two pair would be $320, add a sub for ~ $270.

So for around $600 you can get a, decent for the money spent, 5.1

Jinjuku, thanks very much. You status on the website (Senior Audioholic) is making me put a lot of faith and value in your suggestion. I might actualy end up going for this combination. It gives me a decent 5.1 within my price range. Could you double check the link for sub please. The website it takes me to has a list price of $499, not $270.
Thanks a bunch in advance.

That is just the MSRP, you can find them for that price and cheaper on ebay from authorized dealers.

I got mine from sound_distributors for $245 shipped.

Jinjuku and Matt34, I can get the bic system for $799. You guys think this is an ok deal.
Thanks for all your comments and guidance.

You are most likely talking about the Acoustech series from BIC. $799 is about the going rate.

Google for the Venturi listed prior and you will see the pricing. Check out Amazon and Craigslist / Ebay also.

Jinjuku, you are right, it is BIC acoustech. Out of the two, which one is a better brand, BIC acoustech or BIC america?

I listed it all in post 25

Just Google the models that I linked to...

As far as which one is better, Venturi or Acoustech, I would know. I would say that they are different, not 'better'. Different is a fact, better is subjective. I have the DV 62CLR-S and it is a heck of a speaker for $100.
