I currently have a Yamaha HTR-5760, matched to KLH HTA-6108 Speakers (http://www.amazon.com/KLH-HTA-6108-Twistable-Directional-Surround/dp/B000FIB87Q) for my sub/side/rear centers, a KLH CTR200 (http://www.amazon.com/KLH-AUDIO-Channel-Speaker-CTR200/dp/B000702U9M) for my Front Center, and an old pair of Optimus GX-1600's (http://www.audioreview.com/cat/speakers/floorstanding-speakers/optimus/PRD_12029 3_1594crx.aspx) for my Front Left/Rights. I realize right off the bat the 15'' woofers on my Front L/R's are too large to match well with my Center channel speaker, but I figured they'd still be better then the small KLH sat speakers. This is probably my greatest reason to upgrade. I was pondering putting together a JBL/Polk Audio setup from mix and matched deal I found on the net, however I am not sure I have the funding available atm to do so. However during my travels I found a stellar deal on a full set of Pure Acoustics QX900 5.1 Speaker System. I haven't heard much about Pure Acoustics before, but did find an extremely informative review on the set, http://www.hometheaterhifi.com/volume_12_1/pure-acoustics-qx-900-speakers-3-2005 .html I can get the whole set for roughly $250 CAD on sale from some one I know. My only concern are my $250 worth the upgrade? Are they enough of a jump from the hodge podge KLH set up I have now to be worth it? Are they worth the time of my amp? Or should I wait, save and look to buy something higher end that may match my amp better, or are just better speakers to begin with?? Sorry for all the questions, but I researched as much as I could and still find myself scratching my head. |
