Always been a fan of the Sonus Faber sound.

+2
makakabuo din tayo ng faber HT bossing.....banda banda jan pa! ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D konting dagdag lang..i always believe that faber centers are reference centers on their pricepoint. gusto mo ng natural at clearcut na dialogue, you should first audition any faber center bago ka maghanap ng iba....

most likely si doc comet 5.0 LIUTO HT na yan din year! congrats doc! ;D :D

Mukhang maganda reviews niyan. At $1,500-1800/pair, kapag may nakuha ka, pa-audition naman. have you ever thought of purchasing sa US?

I got the LS50 in the end. Out of the box, they're so brutally good as near-field computer speakers.



Thanks to the folks here and the shops who helped me out in my search. I really enjoyed auditioning all those cool speakers.

Guys I also need your help if you don't mind. I am now in the hunt for new surround speakers. I have been using Paradigm Titan V2 for my surround speakers for my home theater for quite some time now. This was my uncle's and he let me borrow it but now he needs it back and now I'm looking for a replacement. Any suggestions would be much appreciated.

Thanks!

my setup includes the FF:

B&W CC3
B&W 601-S1
Paradigm Titan V2
SVS PB1000

How about the B&W DM302 surround speakers? is that a good match? saw this for sale online and wanted to ask first before purchasing it. My Paradigm speakers which I will be replacing is a 6" while i think the DM302 is a little over 5 inches. will i feel the difference?

Thanks

sirs, just helping a friend out.. their budget is only within the 15k range.. could you recommend any ht that would suit their budget.. or perhaps a speaker and amp combination wherein they could have the amp then just add speakers in the future.. thanks..
