    My father and law just got some HTM-200's for his theater. We set it up over the weekend and they sound great! Man...just a few more months for me to upgrade. Can't wait.

    I placed an order for 3 of the Sierra 2's on Friday, with the satin black bamboo finish. Can't wait for them to arrive, which should be sometime this week. A forum member was nice enough to sell me his 170SE's to be used as surrounds. I'm ecstatic to be an Ascend owner!

    I ordered my Sierra 2's in black bamboo this past Monday. UPS is supposed to bring them Tuesday :-)

    Curtis, set up looks really great, love the natural look of the Sierras!
    Are you using changing mats behind your mains?

    Thanks.
    Those are acoustic panels a friend made. He wasn't using them any more and gave them to me.

    Just curious, as a potential customer for the Sierra 2s for L/C/R, would an extra pair for surrounds be overkill vs. the CBMs or HTMs? I have a small room, approx. 12X12, but I'm a moderate volume listener, not a decibel-buster.

    It depends on what you listen to and how critical you are in listening to it...not how loud you listen....as well as your budget.

    If I had the budget, and could locate/mount them properly, I would have a pair of Sierra-2's for surrounds as well.

    I have the budget, that's not a problem. I'm not a critical listener in the manner in which a full-fledged audiophile might be, but I definitely am looking to get awesome sound, and I do pick up on and pay attention to details that a casual listener would probably miss or not care about. I guess I consider myself moderately/"medium" critical. I primarily listen to music directly from CD/SACD and ALAC files. I have many classical SACDs, so excellent multi-channel performance is important to me. However, I'm not so critical that I want to spend a considerable amount more to get a 1-2% increase in quality, I want to feel like the extra expense is worth it for someone that critiques sound like I've described here.
