how's that?
upgrading a good hifi to a surround set which costs more then the hifi to begin with is insane in my humble opinion :)

that hifi's bass has specs @ 300watt and will blow most 5.1 sets away. but it is less portable :)

but a sound set shouldn't be portable so ....

re-read that last phrase please.. I'm referring to the Hi-fi...

loudness : hifi will overpower klipsh
quality : you'll want to burn your hifi set and dance around in the mess you made ...

overpower klipsh ?
i ""read"" somewhere that the output can give a good 108dB
thats like a live concert in your room

I wrote "most 5.1 sets".

that's not what I meant.

I think it was weird to expect 200 euro for sth rated @ 299 :)

I can believe in Santa Claus can't I? ;)

:)

unfortunately, I have a house to build in 2004, and it'll cost me bigtime :(

really? Have someone for your roof already?? Send me the plans and I'll make you a price you can't resist ;)

I could use such a speaker set, just to have something to compare the creative 7.1 with... but 200 euro, nah.
