So I selected my two bookshelf - sub combo for my family room (2-CBM-170 SE's w/ HSU VTF-2 MK)! I can not wait for them to arrive. My next room is a larger family room in a semi basement. It's a walk out basement and the media room area will be rather open (~35' X 18') This sound system will be dual function for music and movies. This will be my first foray into the 5.1 world!
Without starting all over, I may stay with the same two finalists from my 2.1 system - Ascend Acoustics and Axiom. Audio
Model: S33-25
Description: CMT-340 SE front pr + CMT-340 SE center + CBM-170 SE surround pr + VTF-3 MK2 sub
$1808.00
vs.
the Axiom 50 . 175
$1862.00
I would love to hear thoughts from people that have made similar decisions or maybe just Ascend vs. Axiom as products. Obviously I will know more from a pure music perspective in a week or two.
Thanks
