Bronze Member Username: Unreal_tUnited States Post Number: 87 Registered: Feb-06 | I'm on a budget and would like to upgrade my Logitech Z-5500 speakers. What do you think of the Energy speakers? Also what good price subwoofer and receiver would you recommend for this setup? Id like a 5.1 receiver so if i want to upgrade to 5.1 later on i can. Thanks |

Bronze Member Username: Unreal_tUnited States Post Number: 89 Registered: Feb-06 | This is the setup i just bought. Energy RC-10 (Rosenut) - Pair Yamaha RX-V559 Receiver Sony Saw3000 Subwoofer 12 Gauge Wire Remember i am upgrading from a lousy Logitech Z-5500 HTS. Also this new setup is for my computer (with a high end sound card) not TV, i don't have an HD TV (and not planning on getting one anytime in the future). |

Bronze Member Username: Unreal_tUnited States Post Number: 90 Registered: Feb-06 | my room is extremely small, i looked everywhere and didnt want to spend $200 or $300 on a subwoofer and this one sounded better than the polk so i decided this one. for only $120 it was a good choice. im not an audiphile just someone that wants an upgrade from z-5500. |
