(3x Horizon RAAL) vs. (Sierra 2 RAAL + Horizon RAAL)

[TheHorizon]

1400 sq ft room, or 1400 cubic feet room??

1400 sq ft room is certainly not small!

Whoops 1,400 cu ft!

Thanks for catching that!

That's about the size of my 2 channel space (converted 3rd car garage, treated, etc.).

I have S2's and I find them plenty for my room, though am using it for music only.

Not sure what the definition of mid-bass slam is, but I found that I had to set my sub crossover to 50 hz. to keep the Sierras from competing with the sub in the mid-bass area.

I listened to everything except the Horizons when I made my decision, and if I had the $$ would have gone with the towers.

Personally, from what I know of the Horizon I think you'd be fine with the S2s and have more $$ to put into a better sub, which I think would make a bigger difference for HT.

With the current offer of free returns, you could always give the S2s a shot and upgrade if you really think you need to.
