Hello matey

I tried this with my Deneon 500SDspeakers from that all-in-one package.

The sound was just awful, even with lots of tweaking with my amp it still sounded cupped, tinny with pathetic bass so I had to upgrade with the SVS system.

I would purchase a good 5.1 set to go with your amp otherwise you are only going to be dissapointed and frustrated.

Chelsea

I have no experience with the system you mention

What is your budget and do you have a wife to please?(dont worry if you have because most of us spend a life time pleasing her indoors)

Do you listen to mainly music or movies?

What is the size of your room if you are considering 6 or 7.1 set up?

On a tight budget I would highly recommend the SVS system (see my amateur review thread in the speaker forum) they are fantastic but big and not outstanding with music, but movie sound is awsome

Are you in a flat or semi (consideration for neighbours with deep bass)

Oh andanother thing...........your sig made me

Cheers

Dave/Doc/Force
