Bronze Member Username: NuckParkhill, Ontario Canada Post Number: 90 Registered: Dec-04 | Identical speakers offer a number of advantages. Placement, timbre matching and spacial timing are so close, you have an advantage, especially in a difficult room. For theatre especially, the 5 clones will take care of a lot of set-up questions. If you liked a pair of them, you will like 5 even more, I bet. I havnt heard these items myself, but the brand comes up often for good reasonably priced speakers. Sounds like a good call to me. Let us know. What receiver are you using, room size etc. and are you using a sub? Cheers |

Silver Member Username: PetergalbraithRimouski, Quebec Canada Post Number: 726 Registered: Feb-04 | If they end up sounding good, then having them all the same is a plus. No, five is better than three in that respect. Unless you would have spent the same cash on 3 better ones with the intent of adding more later. So, if this is for 7.1 then what are the other two speakers? Will they be used as back surrounds? |

Silver Member Username: PetergalbraithRimouski, Quebec Canada Post Number: 727 Registered: Feb-04 | Man... That will be sweet! I was writing the previous when you posted, so hadn't seen them. |
Silver Member Username: Edster922Abubala, Ababala The Occupation Post Number: 783 Registered: Mar-05 | David, please post a review when you receive the speakers. Fluance does have a return policy but it's only like 7 days not the nice 30 days that Ascend and Axiom provide. What I'd do if you're not sure how you like them is, take a pair of them (easy to carry) into a shop and listen to them with other speakers in the same price range. |
Silver Member Username: PetergalbraithRimouski, Quebec Canada Post Number: 728 Registered: Feb-04 | David, Start with a 5.1 system. The receiver will be happy to accomodate you. My back surrounds are OFF; I'm using 5.1 right now. No room for back surrounds. |

Silver Member Username: Edster922Abubala, Ababala The Occupation Post Number: 799 Registered: Mar-05 | That sure is a nice little review...wonder how they'd compare against my horrible Polk R20s (bedroom minisystem) I bought for $80/pair from CC on Black Friday. Kicker is, CC used to retail them for something like $200!!! |
