    New Center - 50XTI vs ESL-C?

    Thanks for the feed back so far everyone. @TiBoneFramer what about the ESL C did you not like? In my searching around online I saw someone say something similar about it not being worth the price jump (better just not not substantially) but most of the reviews are from people using a full set...

    New Center - 50XTI vs ESL-C?

    Obviously an apples to oranges comparison here but I just saw that the Motion 50XTI's are being closed out and can be had for $780 at Best Buy right now and the store nearest me also happens to have a NIB ESL-C for $1400 that a customer canceled and is being marked down because they aren't...

    Adding Speakers - Recommendations

    Looking to expand my existing 5.1 setup to a 5.1.4 and I'm looking for some opinions on which smaller, budget friendly-ish speakers to add.

Mine's still in the box but here's a Google...

    Need Input on Speaker Layout

    Thanks for the feedback. I can definitely play around with the ceiling speaker locations and do 8' apart in the front and 12' in the rear. I think I had read somewhere that it's best to keep them the distance apart and that's why I was planning on both being 10' apart. Like you pointed out...

    Need Input on Speaker Layout

    Hey Everyone, I'm replacing an older Samsung all-in-one home theater with a new ML setup and was looking for some input on my speaker layout before I go ahead and start cutting holes in my ceiling. The current plan is to use a Motion 30 for the center, a pair of ML-67I's for the front surrounds...
