If that was my dream system I would get the 15's instead of the 25'. Just a thought.Money Talks, Mine says Goodbye Rob!!!!

All truth passes through three stages. First, it is ridiculed, second it is violently opposed and third, it is accepted as self evident.

Don't forget the electronics side of that dream. Hook all that to the standard AVR and you may be dissapointed in your dream system.

I wouldnt buy a ACI just because of how they run their company. Never seen a company unwilling to help their customers/possible customers more than they are....
But SVS, HSU, AV123, Adire, Polk = Solid- Not Tom ::::::: Any system can play Diana Krall. Only the best can play Limp Bizkit. -
Cool wife!!

Thanks everyone that have look and replied. Just to answer a few questions, no my wife does not have a sister, only a brother and I assume you are no longer interested.
I have listen to the 15's but have not heard the 25's. I only assuming they would be better. The only dealership around here that sell the Polk's are The Brick and they don't have the Lsi in stock. Also, they are sticky on there pricing. Just need a great deal I guess.
I have thought of the electronic side of things, but the more I listen to opinions, the harder the decision it has become. I am taking all of your opinion seriously and I thank you all.
If you know of any great place that I can purchase my so call dream package, please don't hesitate to let me know. Address and phone number would be awesome.
Also, if there is anyone that has heard both the 15's and 25's, could you please tell me your honest opinion of both of them, good or bad!
Once again thanks.

most like the 15's over the 25 because the 25 is a powerred tower. I would figure why deal with 2 more subs to incorporate when you will assumenly have a superior sub doing the low frequency work. if you have your main towers crossed at...say...60 hz from the reciever or pre/pro, then having a powerred tower that would only do 60hz and up would nearly be silly.
go 15's and dont look back. swing big on the power you feed them though. take the extra cheddar and go beefy with the sub. Vr3 covers a nice little list of good sub manufacturers, a particular favorite amongst most is the SVS, I'd place HSU at a very close second.Living Room 2 Channel -

The 25s are a bit more "bassy" than the 15s.. both in extension and oomph. The thing is, in my auditions, the 25s have always been a little more "muddy" for some reason, especially in the midrange. It seems to me like the adjustments n the size of the cabinet has had a deleterious effect on the overall sonic presentation.
I could be wrong, but I think that the 15s are the crown jewel if you can position them right. With the extra money that it would cost you if you went with the 25, I'd rather spend that on a sub or a TV.
