Well everything has been done for about 4 weeks and all I can say is WOW. If you are looking for clear quality sound at concert volumes go with Pi speakers. I am running the 4pi as the mains, dual 3 pi subs, and 2pi for rear surround.
The four pi speakers are the main sound for my setup. With their sensitivity these speakers do not strain at high volumes it is amazing. They just keep sounding better the louder you play them. I upgraded both the tweeter and woofer to B&C DE250 and the JBL 2226h . I love how clear and separated the instruments sound and I love the range these have but I really enjoy the soundstage of the 4pi. Watching concert dvds is a real pleasure it feels like I am at a live show.
The 2pis for rears are great. In movies I notice they put out a lot of bass without breaking up at all. It adds a big feel to movies during loud scenes. When using them for 5.1 albums I really appreciate how they are not the weak link in the chain. They put out enough clear sound to be the perfect compliment to the 4pi's (note I have not tried playing them as fronts yet).
The 3pi subs are awesome. Sometimes I have to walk up to them to make sure they are putting out bass because they are so clear and mix with the 4 pi so well (running them at 100 hz crossover). The biggest impression they left on me has been in movies. During explosion scenes your hair is vibrates and the room pressurizes, but you can barely hear the bass. It is one of the coolest things about the system.
Overall I could not be happier. I find myself constantly playing music and relistening to all of my favorite albums. It is amazing hearing new things in some of my favorite songs with how much instrument separation these 4pis produce. I can now finally sit back and enjoy them. I am throwing a dinner theater holiday party in Dec. and I will make sure everyone knows about Pi Speakers!
Thanks Wayne and Thanks Tim Kroupa from Mirror Image Remodeling for doing my cabinets.
