Here is my question . Does anyone think the cost difference between this system , CMT-340 fronts, CMT-340 center, CBM-170 rears and Hsu VTF-3 MK2 and Paradigm studio 100 centers, CC-470 center , ADP-470 rears , and a Seismic 12 , really make sense? The Paradigm system is more than twice the cost of the Ascend system , is it that much better? I don't know without having both in front of me to compare. Anyone have an opinion?
