    Default New passenger in the boat

    currently looking at the ascends...i've already decided that i am buying ascends...its a matter of what...i've emailed with david a couple times already, but i'm still conflicted....this will be part of a 6.1 system...on one hand i think the 170s would be best for filler, but as the 6 in the 6.1, would it be more beneficial to have something thats a single speaker, or something thats dual like the 200? or does it not matter? i'm leaning more towards the 170s, but my roommate (who's going to help fund this venture), is making me wonder if we should go with the 200s...does/would having 2 woofers and tweeter be an improvement or should i stick with my feelings and do the 170s in the rear?

    i say you cant go wrong with sticking with your gutt feels. besides your getting the speaker that started it all for what about $30 more. but if room size is a factor then go for the 200.

    with mounting, room size isn't a factor.

    The number of drivers is not an indicator of performance. The 170 is a better speaker.

    If size is not an issue...go with the 170.
