Several years ago I had nearly all of the parts to build a set
of 4 Pi Pros but then some things came up and I had to scrap them.
Since then I have been thru several more speakers and other HT gear and now I am once again looking to build something from Pi.
Honestly I just cannot afford to do the 4 Pi Pros , right now my current system consists of Klispch RF-3IIs for mains and an RC-3II for a center. These are nice speakers until you crank them up , at which point (to put it bluntly) they begin to sound like crap.
The mains are being pushed with a Parasound HCA-1500A and my Pre-amp is an Aragon Soundstage , source components are a Denon DVD-2200 and a Sony ES 5 disc changer.
Anyways I believe I have a buyer for my front three speakers which will bring me about $700 to play with.
I need speakers that sound good when played loud , not harsh , not strained sounding etc. They don't have to go too low because I have a dual 18" IB sub that fills in the low end nicely.
The Theater 4 Pis are just too big so that does not leave alot..I wish I could afford the 4 Pi pros...anyhow I am not too sure there is a Pi speaker that fits my needs but I thought I'd check in and see what if you guys have any recommendations.
