My lsi9's are sounding better & better .HK 3485 seems to be a good fit for now. I have such a small space & this combo fills it up nicely.

Played the eric clapton dvd of the Crossroads guitar festival today & wow--what I've been missing. My former system was a little book shelve Yamaha 35W per channel which has a good sound but nothing like the HK & lasi9's.

So now I must plan the next move up . :eek: I'm addicted already.

    There's no need to plan your next move up. You're already "up."

    Maybe look into some real nice speaker cables and you're done. Sit back and enjoy.

    maybe just a little 100- 120 5 channel amp so i can try bi-amping these lsi9's ??

    uummm I NEED MORE JUICE NOW !!!!!!! But seriously , some nice cables would probably make a good addition cause im using some cables from .................( dare i say it ??)............... walmart . i know all of you that have cables that cost more than my speakers either are laughing so hard or nearly bit your tongue or maybe spilled your drink.

    I will get some nice cables-- I promise

    Dont blow too much on the cables just get something decent. try signal cable, theyre solid and not too pricey.

    That's a good combo, congrats. Signal was a good suggestion, and there are others too. HK is warmish, and the 9's I would say are warm rather than cool, so you can try a couple of sets and see what you like better. Auction the loser.

    Kind of a rule of thumb that i like to use is spend btwn 5 and 10 % of what my sytem costs on cables.

    Personal opinion of course though...
