Hello All,
I have been a lurker/reader on this site for over a year and this is my first post. Naturally it will be a question.
I have a new dedicated HT room with a front projector and a 98" screen. The room is approx 14' x 29' bonus room above the garage. The screen is on one 14' wall. Currently I have a 7.1 setup consisting of infinity 150 rears, 6" in Walls for the sides, an infinity center, some older JBL G series towers in the front and a 8" polk sub. All powered by a Pioneer 816 (but I may move my panasonic xr55 in there).The rooms ceiling is shaped like this /-\ if that matters much and room is fully carpeted.
My question is do you think the CBM 170's would be enough for front left and right? Do you think it would be an improvement over the towers I currently have? It sounds decent to me now but I have been wanting an excuse to try those 170's and with the b-stock sale, seems like a perfect time.
I would also purchase a 340center to match. As far as subs go Im thinking the STF-2.
The setup is for 100% movies/HDtv and considering I also want to replace the weak sub, my budget is a little tight.
What do you think?
Thanks
