    Well I finally decided to go with the M60's over the M70's and paired them with the HSU VTF-1 with the extra cash saved. So far I'm happy with everything. The HSU's were being reviewed as musical subs and so far it hasn't disappointed. With the low end taken care of (and then some), the 60's and CS2 do plenty in handling the mids and high. I'm sure it can always sound better but with the money spent on everything and this being my first system, I am happy with the results and will be for awhile.

    I appreciate the numerous opinions and input on both speakers. I know this a topic that gets brought up over and over and typically comes down to personal preference and what you want to spend, but I always appreciate getting feedback for my specific situation and it adds a piece of mind before making a purchase. Thanks all.

    Good choice on the sub! I am curious to know what you think of it, as I am currently looking into buying my first real sub as well.

    So far I like it very well and have absolutely zero complaints about it musically. HT is superb as well. I was just going to get the STF-2 but with only a $50 price difference I went with the VTF and have zero regrets. Bass is tight and not boomy but it can go low (at least low enough for me) when needed. I can't compare it to any other similar priced items but I'm happy with it.
