My old speakers were semi-huge and a complete mismatch so while the dinky energys wont match the volume or bass, I really didn't want anything as loud as what I had for a bedroom anyway.
Old speakers:
Infinity SM152 main
JBL N-Center center (obviously lol)
Bose 501-V rears (dont hate, i bought em a decade ago when i was like 14 and didn't know any better)
JBL Venue Sub12 sub

old:

new:


i'll probably move the sub to the corner where i had the jbl sub eventually, but i dont even have all the speakers wired yet.

another thing i need is a new receiver, my current one is a yamaha rx-v795 which still sounds fine but is also a decade old and lacking all the inputs i need :/

With a few other select members, we briefly discussed any limitations or parameters needed to be set on acceptance into the club. We did this because certain brands, names, sorts are simply not up to standards with what is consistently deemed as quality across the entire hobby of audio. The issue is, of course, that a brand such as Logitech, which is truly not a quality product as far as speakers go, has reached a niche market in the pc-enthusiast world and maintains popularity in it. I personally feel that someone truly engaged and interested in speakers will have moved beyond Logitech, etc., at a certain point or is considering doing so eventually. As such, we have agreed to exclude Logitech and any other pc-based speaker brandings from acceptance into the club. As of now, any and all speaker brands that reach beyond pc-intention, including stereo and HTIB, are deemed acceptable and fit within the parameters of the club. For now, specific sets such as Klipsch ProMedia's and Swan M10's, both of which are pc-based for all intents and purposes, are not deemed to fit within these parameters.

Yes, this may stir up some controversy, but for now these are the parameters. Thanks for your cooperation and understanding.

TacT s2150 Digital Amplifier. The technology is fascinating; it's not an amp in reality, just a DAC with a crapload of voltage output. 300wpc into my 4 ohm PSB's = yummy.
