correct me if im wrong but the .2 indicates the number of sub. so 7.1 means one sub and 7.2 means 2.

tumpak. hence, a 7.2 channel receiver means that it can drive 7 satellite speakers (LCRFront+LRsurr+LRsurr back/front high/front wide) plus 2 subwoofers

am into movies, maybe 5% music.. for a 7.2 setup, you need 2 subs?

7.2 receiver has two subwoofer LFE pre-outs so you have the "option" to use two subs, but even if you only have one sub pre-out you can just use a Y connector to connect to two subs.

If you have a smallish room, the following items might suit you (5.1):
2 pairs Polk M10 (bookshelves)
1 unit Polk CSM (center)
1 unit Polk PSW110 (sub)

Contact avshop (Marc) for a quote. If you already have a receiver, take it with you to see if it'd match well with these items. In the end, you should put the most weight on how you like the resulting sound. Best of luck with your endeavor.

woo nice... so how good is this set for movies and video games?
will an entry level let say an onkyo 308 be enough for this set up?

Sanjay · « **Reply #1479 on:** Mar 19, 2011 at 07:49 PM »

The Polk Audio M series is really design more for movies and video games then for music.
The M series will work well even with modestly powered entry lever receivers.

Tavus · « **Reply #1480 on:** Mar 19, 2011 at 08:32 PM »

Great. hows the sound quality of the M series compared to the blackstones?
There is so many choices for speakers, it can get confusing.

Sir, I also have a 606 and I'm using it with QAcoustics 1030i, 1010i, 1000C, and 1000Si. 100% for movies only, good performance pero di ko gusto tunog nya for music

thanks ivo... speakers on my list include polk audio, mission and b&w. I will just bring my 606 to the store where I wll audition those speakers on my list. Para malaman ko yung SQ ng speakers.

Go to AVshop sir, I'm sure Marc can accommodate you. They might also have a 606 so you don't need to bring your receiver... May Polk Audio at B&W dun, you can compare them side by side

Anu ba magandang Speaker/Amp combo mainly for music lang? 2.0 setup sana and for 15"x10" bedroom size. budget 40-50k. Analog source will be from a Musical Fidelity V-Dac connected through a USB port from a PC.

Kung mas mura mas OK

Oh yeah, i need to add that near-field ko gagamitin ito. Much like desktop speakers.

My room has a hanging ceiling (yung tipong parang pang opisina wherein nasusundot pataas yung tiles ng ceiling; i dunno their proper name) so kung may comments din kayo tungkol sa room resonance i would welcome them.

Sir Armymanhaha, read about StageA and AVshop's posts about the good pairing of Onkyo A-5VL with Polk Audio LSi7

armymanhaha · « **Reply #1487 on:** Mar 25, 2011 at 11:42 PM »

How bout a cheap NAD integrated amp paired with the LSI 7?

Sobra sa budget kasi kung A5VL + LSI 7 eh. (Except nalang kung may pre-owned na bargain

)

Pero it looks promising. Oh well ipon nalang muna ako onti. Thanks.

dmnt3d · « **Reply #1488 on:** Mar 26, 2011 at 12:25 AM »

Hi Guys,
Please help recommend Front Left and Right speakers for this setup:

Pioneer VSX 1020-K
Polk Audio CS20

.. I basically just bought them based on the highest rated items in Amazon

Ngayun need ko ng Front L-R.

Thanks!

Sir you can also look into an A-9555 with the LSi7. The A-9555 is significantly cheaper than the A-5VL. It has 200w at 4ohms.. it can easily drive the LSi7.

Hey Louie_18!

We have almost the same setup!

I'm planning to get the OWM3's para it's Polk all the way.

Check it out, I think it's almost the same price.I could have gotten the cheaper M10, but these speakers are easier to mount and "hide" from view.

Here's the link: http://www.polkaudio.com/homeaudio/owm/specs.php

Can somebody recommend a good, musical, subwoofer. Preferrably an 8-incher specifically for music only; with Left and Right RCA inputs.

Budget: only up to 7k

♡ lvcdg23™ ✌ · « **Reply #1497 on:** Apr 14, 2011 at 02:08 PM »

Mga gurus and masters,
Di ko alam kung saan thread ko to itatanong kaya I thought dito na lang

Ano ba ang consequences pagcombined ang 4ohm and 8ohm speaker rating sa isang AVR?

Thanks
