No highs nor lows it must be a Bose. You will be overpaying for the name.

Yeah, I am not interested in Bose. I think that you are overpaying as they are just middle of the pack other than their noise canceling headphones(which I have).

I have been pricing Polk and Klipsch, but then I saw those Pinnacles. I just cannot find any reviews for them.

I had pinnacle speakers for computer speakers..they sucked there..no experience with there home theater systems though. But I'd imagine they'd be the same? And how many times you gonna let fab4 get away with calling you a nerd? That's twice now. Curbstomp.

Do you already have a home amplifier? Any other speakers you are considering for just music?


I'm giving my opinion that you want to be able to listen to music and have good sound with the TV.

IMO- Buy separate speakers, instead of buying one of these "kits" that come with everything. The Pinnacle subwoofer being 6.5 inch is not much at all. They advertise "350 watt" but the Pinnacle kit runs in parallel, as in its not 350 watts to each speaker, its 350 watts divided by the total amount of speakers in the kit. They run a high ohm in each speaker to divide everything out..(yea, I'm a nerd)......does that make sense? That kit is a rip-off.....sorry man.

I'm assuming you already have an amp, which has an A/V outlet for the TV? Does the amp also have a separate subwoofer output?
I'm a fan of Cerwin-Vega subwoofers. They are an American company.

IMO-Get a CLS series subwoofer for the home and pick out some satellite speakers. Do not sell yourself short on the sub.

I have an Onkyo 5.1 that I got on sale at HHGregg, for the money quite a nice system. I would go with Onkyo or Sony unless you got the money for Harmon Kardon.
