Poll: Polk Audio members...HT or L&R?

**treitz3** · 10-03-2009 01:20 PM

All current PF members, would you please choose which category fits you best?

**sTiLlLeArNiNg** · 10-03-2009 01:21 PM

60% Ht

40% 2ch

**nadams** · 10-03-2009 01:23 PM

100% stereo

Though I do use the SDA's to watch movies, I do not consider that "HT"

**obieone** · 10-03-2009 01:25 PM

Shouldn't there be a bar graph?

Sorry, 2 ch.

**treitz3** · 10-03-2009 01:28 PM

Poll is now up. Sorry, I didn't know that the thread was up while I was typing the polls.

For me? 2 channel only baby! Been there and done that with the HT, it just doesn't interest me anymore. I've never felt goose bumps with any HT rig I've heard. Get 'em all the time with L&R.

**leroyjr1** · 10-03-2009 02:01 PM

I have a couple rigs but spend the most time in the HT room watching movies and playing Madden on PS3 with the boys. Listen to the music rig when I want to be by myself and relax.

**hearingimpared** · 10-03-2009 02:28 PM

I have two rigs. One for 2 channel and one for HT. Two channel is what does it for me.

What Joe says....My HT is built around my 2 channel system.

**Ricardo** · 10-03-2009 03:17 PM

I enjoy both. But the 2 channel is the one that gets the most money, so I guess I like that one more ;)

**Midnite Mick** · 10-03-2009 03:20 PM

Well I had to sell some gear because I needed the funds. I sold my ht gear so I guess that should answer the question

Regards,
Mike

He. he,, I get confused with more than two channels,, 2 channel,, why do you think monoblocs only come in pairs.;)

In my state, and others,, mono's are only sold in pairs,, it's the law.;)

**NJPOLKER** · 10-03-2009 03:33 PM

Two channel only.

**Pycroft** · 10-03-2009 04:04 PM

I voted HT and 2 Channel rig - and it splits about 60HT, 40 Music.

**danz1906** · 10-03-2009 04:35 PM

60% Music-40%Movies

**concealer404** · 10-03-2009 04:36 PM

Right now i'm running 2 channel only, but i do enjoy HT as well.

But as for my preference? HT takes a back seat to 2 channel these days. I even enjoy movies just using 2-channel, so that's fine.

**mantis** · 10-03-2009 05:56 PM

I'm more in the HT camp but the more I am the more I want to me into 2 channel. It never ends.

**comfortablycurt** · 10-03-2009 06:27 PM

My 2 channel and HT are combined. Soon, I'll be integrating the two together. Currently, my AVR doesn't have pre-outs, nor does my 2 channel pre have HT bypass, so I've gotta swap cables around depending on whether I'm listening to music or watching a movie.

Soon, I'm going to be upgrading my AVR and getting a 2 channel pre with HT bypass, and I won't have to swap any cables around anymore.

Heya Curt...Just a suggestion; you can pick up an inexpensive switch box from Radio Shack until you get your rig how you want it. Save ya the hassle of swapping cables manually, fwiw. ;)

Cheers,

**Toolfan66** · 10-03-2009 06:54 PM

2 channel as of late... But I have an HT setup as well..

**potee** · 10-03-2009 07:30 PM

80% HT 20% music. In the future I'd like to get into a 2 channel system.

**BlueFox** · 10-03-2009 09:01 PM

Two separate setups in two rooms. They both have different purposes, and both do a great job. However, the HT is a bit more versatile since I can play multi-channel SACDs when in the mood.

**vc69** · 10-03-2009 09:10 PM

The only thing combined about my system is the main L/R speakers and my UDP. So I voted both but in separate rigs.

I do WAY more 2ch listening than HT.

**Conradicles** · 10-03-2009 09:11 PM

Tom...you forgot one..."Have both but in different rigs, prefer BOTH"

That's me.

**Poee7R** · 10-03-2009 09:26 PM

Have a 2 channel rig with a small lcd in the middle to watch concert dvd's. But all music, no movies on it.

So I voted 2 channel.

**ben62670** · 10-03-2009 10:23 PM

2 channel. HT got me back into music, and then I dumped it totally. I use SDA's,and a projector for movies. The choice is do you want a better 2 channel, or a mediocre HT. I costs a lot to add the extra channels of amps, processing, and speakers.
I'll pass on HT.
Ben

**schwarcw** · 10-04-2009 12:27 AM

Lately ot's beem all 2 channel. But I do like HT and I have been know to get my groove on with the multi channel SACDs.

**Lasareath** · 10-04-2009 12:50 AM

Used to be rig combined but more room in this new house so now I "Have both but in seperate rigs, prefer 2 Channel"

**Polk addict** · 10-04-2009 01:32 AM

The HT rig is my parents, but I have an 2.1, so I put both... I only listen to music on both as well...

Couldn't have said it better myself.

**Sherardp** · 10-04-2009 05:56 AM

I'm about 70% HT, 30% music in my room. I listen to most of my music on my desktop rig.
