[suniltgeorge]

Wall mounted speakers are always going to be a bit of a compromise, but the Millenia line should be OK. Have you listened to them or other Paradigms? They sort of have a particular sound that not everyone is fond of (they tend to be bright).

I've heard these and thought they weren't bad for on wall (dealers may not be so easy to find):

Vienna Acoustics - high end speakers and loudspeakers for your home theatre

This is an interesting request because the sat-system market has kind of shrunk away quite a bit over the years.

- RBH CTX is a really nice little system. RBH CTx Series
- The KEF System ACU....... mentioned is excellent
- Phase Technology CinemicroONE CineMicro One: HTiB / Home Theater in Box System is very nice.


The best one that I can think of, however, is the Canton CD or Movie Series of product. Best build quality, aesthetics, fit & finish, and some of the finest products on the market.

Pretty much any. subs are universal what with their adjustments.

But, just in case, you might want to specify which speakers you're referring to.

 

[Rickster71]

Hey
The last time I checked 2 systems were reviewed the best 5.1 ht set
Paradigm millineaone 5.1

I've heard the Millenia One's and the Gallo.
IMO you won't go wrong with either.
If limited to satellites, I'd listen to those two and find a better sub.

 

[suniltgeorge]

Hey guys sorry I'm coming back again . My HT work is about to start and the guy who's doing it is suggesting a level higher . the B&W 684 5 speakers and a sub ehst compliment it .. Well is this it ? Does this beat the other speakers I had in mind not to mention they were satellites and not floor standing .. Thank you in advance for all the info n guidance

 

[crossedover]

If it sounds good to you, it's all good. What was the final sub decision?

So 5 B&W towers + a sub? Seems like a good plan to me. 2 subs would be better, but at least one.

Yeah ?? Nah it's a small room so 2 sub's would be a over kill maybe ? .. So this plan does this plan will beat the other satellite speakers right ? Miliniaone , b&w mt and Anthony hallo diva se .. ?

 

[walter duque]

For a small place I kind of like these dARTS Series: Built-In Room Correction Software

Okay, 5 B&W 684 towers + 1 Subwoofer + Denon X4000 so you can use Audyssey XT32 Dynamic EQ. Price on the X4000 should drop any day now with new models being release soon. You can get it from Electronics Expo for $1K now (phone order).

[suniltgeorge]

Phase Technology's dARTS is one of th finest theaters on the market regardless of price. We use it in our design center on a 179" screen in a huge room.

The small 5.25" system with two subs will play flat at 115 db in up 8,000 cubic foot spaces and the larger system will do the same in up to 18,000 cubic feet. These systems start at arond $18,000 MSRP and go up into the $30,000s depending on room size.

I was looking around for something like this myself, found the XTZ Cinema series.
They are just about to launch the series, and I think it looks pretty damn promising!

Wohoo! First post cherry broken!
