Re: [mythtv-users] OT: speakers question
i am not sure what your budget is, but the speakers in the following link with blow away just about anything from klh. some light assembly work, including soldering, is required. read the assembly manual. you will not be disappointed. the bass output should be better than the klh system, so a sub would probably not be required. link: http://www.partsexpress.com/pe/pshowdetl.cfm?&DID=7&Partnumber=300-640 review: http://www.partsexpress.com/resources/300-640a.html ___ mythtv-users mailing list mythtv-users@mythtv.org http://mythtv.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/mythtv-users

Re: [mythtv-users] OT: speakers question
You might check out audioreview.com I think this is the site I used to use. Unfortunately its really slow for me right now so I can't look up your speakers.
