Any help out there? I've heard both and they both sound good. Different stores so's comparison is not really easy.. Anybody have their own opinions as to their sound? Don't know if that was the right...

It sure would be nice to see THAT package offered... :)

Any takers on this one?? I'd kinda like to know too... :D

Welcome Don...
I'm still searching for my SB50... Haven't made the plunge yet.. Good luck with yours..

Ahhhhh.. There is a sale on the SVS PB12-Plus/2 right now for $1099. I have one and love it. Other contenders are the SVS 25-31PC-Plus, the DSW Pro500 and the CSW15S.. The SVS cylinder and the ...

OK, then... Can you use small (hanging on the ceiling) speakers in conjunction with the SB50? Will it ruint the sound? Just trying to use the in-ceiling wires that I have hangin and trying to be...

I was thinking that you could somehow use the simulated rears on the SB50 in conjunction with the actual rears in the room.. ??
It's just that I have these 4 wires danglin from the ceiling and just...

Still haven't done anything on this project.. Has been sitting for several months - long story..
I'm close to getting a Sony KDL-52XBR5 for this room and a Polk SurroundBar50 mounted on the wall...

If I purchased a SoundBar50 and installed it on the wall, in a 15' x 15' room with one side (R) of the 15' open to another room, could I, to any benefit, add cube type ceiling speakers in the rear...

I see you guys are talkin the rectangular in-wall/ceiling speakers. Is there a reason for using one vs the other? Does the rectangular have better sound than the round? What dictates the use of one...

How do the DSW's compare to the SVS's?
Like say a PB12 NSD to the DSW 500?
and.......
I know this is anal but would 4 in-ceiling speakers add to the mix or detract? The RM's look like external...

Whose surround bar would you use? and... What about the speaker wire that I have in the corners of the room hangin from the ceiling?? I could use the surround bar as the center speaker?

Edit......

Howdy,
I'm planning on using a KDL-52"XBR5 LCD in my family room and need recommendations for speakers. I have carpet and some furniture so far and ceiling wire for 4 speakers.. TV so far is tape...

OK guys, I now have the SVS PB12Plus/2.
Using these with the Rti10's in front with the Rti8's in rear, and my old Infinity SM85's as surrounds.
THE SVS IS AWESOME.. The 10's and 8's are...

Erik says the SVS PB12 Plus /2 will do just fine.. Now all I need to do is order it...
Also, I emailed Polk technical and they said that the Onkyo TX-NR901 will drive the Polk RTi12's... Have a...

OK,
I now have received the RTi10's and the RTi8's, so far that's all... Now I need to get a subwoofer.. I had intended to get a Velodyne DPS-12, but I'm hearing the SVS PB12 plus/2 is far...

Thankx again for all the GREAT advise..

I see speakers and they LOOK good but you guys know how they respond.. I'm hearing that the RTi10's are great fronts.. I believe that at this point, I do...

Thank you both for your help.. There are certainly some nuances that I'm not aware of that have been enlightening..
So, really I could use RTi12's for the front (If my receiver could handle them or...

My question is for a surround system:
Is it feasible or even wise to use RT10's as front speakers and the RTi8's as rears and an older Infinity (SM85) for surrounds.. My Receiver is an Onkyo...
