4.0 vs 5.1? Ceramic vs Wood?
« on: 27 Jan 2005, 03:04 am »
I'm thinking about buying a 5 speaker set for HT in a 23' x 12' room.  I'm not sure if they'll be on the long or short wall yet.  The ceiling slopes from 8' to 15'.  I've seen a lot of good feedback of the 4.0, but I haven't seen as much for the 5.1.  Does anyone have any recommendations between the two models?

Also, is the ceramic cabinet considered to be sonically better than the wood?

Thanks

The ceramic is better sonically than wood.

The 5.1 plays deeper than the 4.0, but the ceramic 4.0 plays cleaner than the wood 5.1

I would get all marble or ceramic 4.0's and a decent sub and smile for a long time....

The marble, synthetic marble and ceramic speakers are sonically the same.

The marble looks very very classy.
