The Tower Discussion Thread!

[chicubs]

Well I scored tickets first row upper deck behind home. For this I missed the hometown Ascends!! Was it worth it? I'm not sure. How did things go Merrymaid? I'm dying to know. I'm sure you guys had a blast.

MerryMaid,
Well, I'm on the pre-order. Did you get the foam bungs with your Towers?

Congrats!, No, no foam plugs. Not sure if Dave is working on them or not.

Currently the sierra-1 with the NrT upgrade would match well although a larger center with the mid driver is in the works.

If I order sierra-1 LCR do I just ask for the upgrade prior to shipping. Also in my 14x14 room with hardwood floors would using my 340's as surrounds be over kill.Finally does anyone have experience with the yamaha rx-a2000,onkyo 808 or marantz powering the sierra-1 nrt's.

I had a Denon AVR with 90 watts per channel, and a 100 watt per channel Onkyo powering my Sierra-1s. I now have a Marantz SR6003 powering my Sierra-NrTs. It sounds great!

To Waynes, the advantage of the HTM-200's over 170's is that they can be mounted close to the wall since they have no port. I'm doing that in my room and am very satisfied with the way they blend with Sierra LCR.

Waynes,
For what it's worth, I use the 200s for my L/R Surrounds. They do a good job but have a small footprint. If that helps.
