I do really like the Definitive speakers, but I've read a lot about Definitive and Polk going hand in hand. The prices for Polk, I can get a pair (2) of tower and bookshelf speakers for the same price as one single Definitive tower and one Definitive bookshelf speaker that are equally alike. This is my only dilemma. I want a nice quality setup but why pay double just for the same thing and different brand.
I mean price really isnt a big issue, but I'm not going to be stupid about it and buy the first thing I see. I will still look for the best deal. I figure I'll end up spending $4k on everything and have a nice "medium" quality home theater system. I've seen some that are upwards for $30k but thats just a little overboard! I should have no problem getting a very nice setup that will be more than I'll ever need for $4k and should last quite a few years.
Now for a sub, I've thought about trying to configure both a 10 and a 12 but honestly it would probably be too difficult and sound like ass. I am leaning towards 2 - 12s but still looking for options. I agree with the 10 being "tighter" but I like the deep bass too so I think the 12 would be good and not quite as sloppy as a 15.
AVSForum is pretty decent, I've found a lot of info on there and need to find somewhere that sells Polk so I can actually listen to them compared to Definitive which I agree sound pretty amazing. I guess in the end its all up to my ears when I purchase the setup. The hard thing is finding a company that carries many different high end brands to compare.
