Pulling Trigger on System finally (Need Help)

[myrlin]

Finally getting it done. So a last gasp request for help on which to get.

*Already Bought** Receiver - Denon 1910 (For a great price)

Was going to buy the
Fronts - EMP Impression E5Ti Tower Speakers (500 now , **cry**)
Center - EMP Impression E5TCi (225 now **cry**)
and keep my old speakers and sub due to budget concerns.

Then I saw the EMP ECA Series 5.1 package here for $249 ??????

So as usual with my lack of knowledge, whats a better option without dropping sound quality!!! I am specifically looking to not upgrade for quite a while.

Btw my living room is 15 wide with the current "prime" viewing spot at 10 feet from the tv. No wall behind the couch, its open to the breakfast nook/kitchen.

The EMP ECA package is a satellite system, better suited for a smaller room, and not ideal for really creating an impressive home theater. If you were originally planning on getting the EMP Impression series, I would stick with that. They are a great neutral sounding speaker, and are very well reviewed. Even with the slight price increase, they are still well worth the money. Definitely the smart choice to avoid upgrading in the future!...near future that is

tiny satellite speakers will never create a full DD 5.1 soundfield in a large room. As mentioned, these small speaker sets are meant for small, enclosed rooms.

I highly suggest you purchase the Impression speakers. At the current prices there are a number of other tempting speakers available, but as far as the towers/bookshelves vs. the ECA package, hands down get the Impressions. You will likely be happy with that system for a long time, much longer than you would be with the ECA package.

BTW...I suggest you check out this thread: http://forums.audioholics.com/forums/showthread.php?t=60261

$490 shipped for the towers and center is a great price!
