Speakers arrive today and after lugging them up a set of stairs and not being able to wait for my HT room to be finished; I hooked the HT2's to an older Yamaha A/V receiver; also I couldn't get the demo CD to play in an older Yamaha DVD player so I listened to some of my CDs. I started with some Dave Sanborn, Dave Koz, R.E.M., Gladiator soundtrack etc..and all I can say is WOW!!!! these speakers sound great. I then remembered I had a new OPPO 93 for the HT room and hooked it up to the Yamaha receiver and played Jim's demo CD. The sound from the CD stepped the speakers up to a much higher level of sound. When I listened to the Lyle Lovett song I could have sworn my sub was on but I remembered I set the front speakers to large to see how the bass sounded; I was not disappointed.
I will post pictures this weekend and when my HT room is finished I'll write a better review.
Thanks Jim for a great pair of sounding speakers for me to enjoy my music.
