I'm with dragonkeeper. I really want to pull the trigger on a pair of those Polk towers because of the price and the reviews (and I think the cherry looks great). But I'd really lime to hear them in action first. I just have no idea where I can go to listen to a pair. It seems newegg is the only one selling them. FYI big sale on all Polk on newegg for memorial day.

film_critic posted:thanks for the heads up on that sale. I'm going to pick up the monitor 60's and the cs2 center. Will report back in when they are all setup. Also what receiver did you pick up? Or did you already have something

Maybe you like magenta better than red

Keeping with our color metaphor, a certain brand might have dialed in the perfect magenta color for you. Then they designed their entire product around that color adjustment. So even if you were willing to spend all the time in the world to reproduce that "color", you might still be at a disadvantage because the hardware would also need to be tweaked. And why spend all that time when you really like the house "color"? It's like anything else you buy really. Brands do stuff to differentiate themselves. That's why they exist.

BigFactory posted:Unless you’re really allergic to wires you could get a used stereo receiver and a pair of speakers for a lot less than what you’re looking to spend for that stuff. What's the best way to play PC music wirelessly to the stereo receiver?

Yes. My desktop PC is hooked to my router and can play my whole library via the Sonos app on my PC. I can also access that library from my phone app to play on the Sonos as well. It's neat.

Can you use the Ascends as HT speakers too?

Is Ascend Audio still a good option?

Fozzy The Bear posted:For those with the budget, Ascend is having a sale on their shiny black speakers: How would the bookshelfs do with a Sonos amp? I'm debating getting these or the KEFs on sale with a Sonos amp or just saying gently caress it and getting Sonos speakers. I already have a few of the Sonos 1s that I like for the convenience. Need more sound in the basement though.
