Any of the Yamaha's from the RX-V series which you can find online sometimes very cheap. Marantz builds very good ones too, and some of the Denons are ok. The Yamaha's have a lot of nice settings plus they will decode anything you throw at them, and they sound good and clean.

If you are looking for a cost effective, DIY speaker setup, I would consider these two;

http://speakerbuilder.net/web_files/Projects/D3/dayton3.htm

http://www.wadsnet.com/~dtenney/dayton_8MTM.htm

Both are good performers, and pretty popular in the DIY realm. Neither are going to provide absolutely stellar, top tier performance, high end performance....but for a beginner project, they'll perform really wonderfully and really give you a chance to learn a bit in the process. Plus they are very easy on the wallet and they give you a full parts list of what you'll need.

I would like to build something like that. I wouldn't mind doing it. But both of those have subs in those. I am just looking for speakers in the 80-20000 hz range. I already got the sub taken car of. Let me know if you know of any cheap diy projects that just have the highs and not bass too since I doubt I would be able to even hear it anyways.

I like these 3 models from Yamaha.

Yamaha RX-V457 6.1 Channels Receiver

Yamaha RX-V557 6.1 Channels Receiver

Yamaha RX-V550 6.1 Channels Receiver

Let me know what you think.

The towers are ported for the midbass...but no subs.

I just read and it said they have great bass or something ike that. I may try the first one if you thing it would be loud enough.

If you want Loud enough, talk to thylantyr. If you want reasonably loud, those ought to do it.

My horns have great bass, but there is certainly room for the sub //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/up2something.gif.dd110ecf3ae4b76050d87598f2f8de7c.gif//content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/up2something.gif.dd110ecf3ae4b76050d87598f2f8de7c.gif

I will send him a pm. I wish there was just a clear easy answer as to what to do. Right now the mag 12, the mag enclosure, and the mag amp is easy.

The speakers, reciever (if neccesary) and speaker enclosure are up in the air. So is the amp for the speakers in case i don't get a reciever. I think i want to go with a reciever though.

So lets say i get one of those yamaha recievers. Which speaker system here would work best with it?

What type of music would you normally be playing through them?

To be honest everything. I want to be able to show the sub off to people, and still play some good sounding music with it. I would like to be able to play everything from classical, to rap, to techno and have it all sound pretty good. I hope that is possible.

I'd recommend getting:

-Yamaha RX-v1500

-Rotel RB-1080

-B&W 703's

oh and a Pure AV Power Conditioner...
