I have a medium room at around 14x18 used for home theater use with a Yamaha RX-V1800 AVR... Looking for a good full sounding package (can't do towers)
Looking at these three "solutions" - in order or price....
* Boston MCS 130 package which at the moment seems priced way too good at under $400...
* ProCinema 600 kit also a good value using a Best Buy 12% coupon... like the Boston set not sure if the drivers are just too small?
* Focal SIb & CUB package which Tweeter has on sale at close to $1000 -- system looks nice but when I listioned to it at Tweeter they didn't sound as full as the DEF-Tech's (boston was not on display) the sales person said that the DT's will start to breakdown after a few years or so and then the sound quality drops. Where as the Focals will hold up ten plus years and sound better (his words)?
I like the look of the Focal's very sleek and "rich" -- the Def techs look good but small and I am worried that they will not sound as good i my home. Also don't like the fact that you have to wire the front sats to the sub, which seems very bose like?
Plus the sales person at Tweeter spent a lot of time with and seemed very honest and gave a better price BUT still more then the other two.
The BA's look nicer as well and well the half off sale CC is good for my credit card - LOL
Please let me know if you have any advice or pointers.
John
