I took your advice and got the 605. I had heard good things about the athena speakers, so I decided to match everything. I had also heard bad things about the Bose center when it's paired with a non-Bose setup. Plus everything was on sale. :rick:

I personally recommend the sonicaps but not the baffles, I like to see the speakers.

The sub will run around 650, but it is comparable to a $2500 sub. Comes with an integrated amplifier and 12" sub with 12" resonator.

Will literally make you crap nickels if you play Halo and something explodes close.
Well, I positioned the DM302s to get decent bass so I may be able to hold off on the sub. If I can do $650, I will let you know. Are resonators the same thing as a "passive radiator"? A guy I knew on FJ had ideas on a box for my eD10o.44 using a passive radiator.

Yes, that is the official name of it.

Round these here parts we call them resonators :toothless:

Let me know, what kind of finish are you thinking?

Finish doesn't matter, as long as it blends in with my current apartment theme. Can you do it in black?

What kind of drivers do you use?

Good job piecing the setup together, you'll be much happier. I'm overhauling my setup soon. Tired of the entry-level JBL. It sounds good, but it just doesn't pop!

I'm starting by getting a sub.
