Is this a combo choice of speakers

kweb

i'm using an onkyo tx-sr600 and the speakers I am planning on using for the front channel is the RTI 4 or RTI 6. For the center channel the CSI 3 or CSI 5. For the rear surround the TCI 620 or TCI 60. For the sub PSW 404. Is this a good combination?

Any comments on this would be greatly appreciated

I'd go with the 6's and the CSI 5 for the center. You might want to look elsawhere for the sub. Here's a couple links for subs:

I agree with GZ....go with the RTi6/CSi5. The rears are just fine.

Any recomendation of a paticular sub in the same price range thanks

For $350 this should be a good sub. I find the Ed subs kind of ugly but they are supposed to work really well. If you can live with performance over looks - it may be a good choice.

Is that what you were thinking for a budget, or to high/low?

This is the same price - not sure of the differences though - may be worth a call before you purchase.

kweb

Yes thats a good starting point . I went and lookerd at the svs entry level 10 " sub for 429$ anybody have any experiance with these subs thanks.

Is a front firing sub better than a bottom firing

McLoki

How big of a room are we talking? (include other rooms if they cannot be shut off with a door or something.) How many cubic feet? (length * width * height) Will make a big difference on the sub recommended.

kweb

the room is 12'x36' with 1 doorway

kweb

and the hieght is about 8'

McLoki

Pretty big room - I would look for a larger sub than a 10" if you can. Better to make the right purchase once (even if it is later) than purchase now and again in 6 months cuz your not happy with it...

kweb

Go for a12" top or bottom firing?

McLoki

for the sound doesn't really matter, but if you are in an apartment, downfiring may sound the same for you, but be worse for your neighbors.

(My subs are downfiring and I have not had any issues with them. I would have purchased front firing with no worries as well...)

kweb

does carpeting come into play in chosing a front or bottm firing sub

dorokusai

Don't worry about front vs bottom....it's a non-issue here.

kweb

I like to listen to alot of concert dvd's from faith hill to led zepplin. Of the subs talked about does anyone have input as to which one would be the best all around choice for home theater and music. For around 400 to 450$ thank's for any more input
