    How many of the original posters still have the speakers they listed? Many names from the past, but amazing how many are still around and active here. Can't be too many forum communities like that.

  • Greetings,
    Just wanted to update my configurations, because I’ve mixed and matched the setup a bit:

    Main HT setup:
    AVR Panasonic SA-XR57 7.1 (w digital amps)
    - Center Polk CS400i (bi-wired)
    - L/R mains Polk Monitor 7C
    - Surrounds Polk R10 (upgraded Vifa tweeters)
    - Rear surrounds Polk FX300i
    - Subwoofer Pioneer SW-8

    The Main is a terrific setup which really makes the Polk Monitor 7Cs sing
    The Pioneer sub is a bit more musical than the PSW10 so I use it here

    Man Cave:
    AVR Parasound pre/pro/amp separates
    - Center Polk CS300
    - L/R mains Polk CS175i (upgraded Vifa tweeters)
    - Surrounds CSW Ensemble iii
    - Subwoofer Polk PSW10
    HT1: Polk Monitor 7C's L/R, Polk CS400i center (bi-wire)
    Sides: Polk RT10+, modified with Vifa 1" polymer dome tweeters
    Rears: Polk VX300i surround speakers
    Subwoofer: Pioneer PSW-8mk2
    Receiver: Denon HD-750H 7.1

    HT2: Polk CS175i+ L/Rs with Vifa 1" polymer dome tweeter
    Center: Polk CS300
    Sub: modified Polk PSW10 (ratcage fix)
    Surrounds: CSW cubes sides, rears

    Most are due to format changes, however there are a few well deserved bans.

    The Bose 201's have the dubious distinction of being the only speakers I have thrown away when I bought new speakers. The 201's were tossed when I brought home a pair of mini towers made by another "well-regarded" manufacturer who, for the sake of modesty, will remain in the closet with the rest of the skeletons.;)

    Have anymore CRS Stands?

    Sorry, I don't. If you've been looking for some original stands I'm sure you've come to the realization as to their rarity.

    If I'm not mistaken a few members here were planning on doing the same project. Not sure how far they got.

    It actually boggles the mind how many speakers I’ve gone through in the past 20 years....

    Current?

    2.3tl’s, CRS+ (Blade/blade) and a sound bar
