System Goals/Comments: | Just to have a kick-ass, wall of sound theater surround system |
System Strengths: | Prodigy's present such an amazing front soundstage, other speakers reinforce this effect very well. Jaw-dropping performance. Pod racer or Apocalypse Now heli-attack scenes are life-altering. (just kidding) Not bad on music either. See two other dedicated music systems- 1)Hi-power class A and 2)low-power class A/tube amp. First time visitors immediately say 'I want one of these!' |
System Weaknesses: | Room has no acoustic planning yet. Way too bright and bouncy. |

Comments on HT System: | This projector is just such a pleasure, especially on an HDTV signal. It just is so much fun to get together with friends to see sporting events and movies. 'Sunday at the movies at Seth's,' with cartoons for the kids before. |
