Howdy from northern CA. My wife is giving me speakers for a wedding anniversary gift, so guess what? I'll be ordering in <48 hrs. Woo hoo!

Plan is for 3.1 for next 2 years or so, when we'll be moving to a new home. Then we'd likely add rear channels and second sub. Currently agonizing over L/C/R Sierra-1 NrT vs. Sierra Towers + Sierra-1 center.

Also drafting up diagrams of the space they will occupy to help decision making. Power is Marantz 5004 (for now) and sub is Outlaw LFM1-EX. Media mix is 70% music and 15% gaming, 15% movies.

Perusing threads on this decision now. Any advice is greatly appreciated!

If you can do the Towers, then do them.

A Sierra-1 NrT may not be the optimum match at center, but the Towers will make up for it when you play 2 channel music.

Hey Curtis, I'd love the horizon center but that's not an option due to space and WAF for the time being. I was thinking "at least all the tweets are NrT."
