I'm looking for a kickass 6.1 system, not necessarily a home-theater-in-a-box. I have read some good remarks about the Aperion Intimus speakers (CNET especially) and was wondering if anyone has any experience with them. They seem to be relatively competitively priced for the setup I'm looking for (about $2,200 for the speakers, subwoofer and stands) and can apparently compete with speakers many more times as expensive. I just wanted to get some fair opinions on these speakers.
Also, what do you think of Onkyo's receivers and DVD players? I was looking at going with their entry-level THX receiver (around $400) and one of their DVD players.
Lastly, is Monster Cable really worth the premium? If it's anything like car audio wires, I will assume not. Where can I find some affordable speaker wire that is just as clean as the Monster Cable?
Thanks!
