    Thanks Sludge. I had a feeling that would be the case. Anyone out there using the standard Sierra 1 center? Currently I've got a Def Tech Pro Center 1000. Can I assume I'll hear a nice improvement with the Sierra?

    That's pretty subjective. I would say yes, and in anycase, definitely different.

    Thanks Curtis. I'm also considering waiting for the Luna center. Do you think it will be available with the standard Sierra tweeter? Those should blend well...no? I wonder how long until those will be available...

    Did Dave say he is even going to produce a Luna center?
    Why not a Sierra-1 as a center? It is excellent.

    Sierra 1 center is doable but I'd have to raise our TV a couple of inches. It's a Samsung plasma with an awkward stand that would need a couple of blocks to make it above the height of the Sierra. Any guesses how the Luna center's sound would compare with the Sierra's if both had the same tweeter? ie, would the Luna blend well as a center to LR Sierra's?

    I would imagine they would sound somewhat similar, but that is up to Dave. On top of that, the use of the one of the softdome tweeters seems to be a lower priority than the RAAL...so you are going to be waiting a while. Dave doesn't take shortcuts to getting something into production.
