from Premier Audio- Charl Summary: Let me say that I do not go to the movie theater anymore. I have S-125 across the front, S-85''s sides and rears, two MX-150THX''s. All powered by a Lexicon DC-1 and Rotel amps. AWESOME! Alot of people that know speakers will say I''m crazy about this next part but here goes. I demo''d, at my home, 3 pairs of speakers to determine my Home Theater set up. First the Vienna Acoustics, they sound great, wide open, detailed, very smooth, only problem, not a Rock n Roll speaker(not as dynamic as the rest). Next the Monitor Audio MG-10, very good sound, good for all types of music, very very neutral, excellent base for monitor. Next the M&K''s Sounded just a touch better all the way around, only downfall is you have to have a sub, but I have two killer subs, so no issue there. To be honest I still debate in my head if I made the right choice, but I''ll also say this, I do not regret getting them. If 90% of your listening is Home Theater then the M&K is the only way to go. If you''re 50/50 get the Monitors. If you like 90% music (not so much Rock) definitely Vienna. Strengths: Dynamic, crisp(not harsh), clear, neutral, will play loud, Value, can be wall mounted. Weaknesses: Very few. needs a sub. Similar Products Used: Carver AL-III, Martin Logan ReQuest/Logos, Infinity, Acoustat, Monitor Audio, Vienna Acoustics, Definitive Tech., Linn AV series.
