It bugs me when I see speakers behind monitors. If you don't have a place for your center, then run phantom center.
not really an option... as a student leasing this place it doesnt make much sense for me to put up floating shelves and stuff... put it behind for the time being and make do...
u kidding? this sub may not be tops or anything but it sounds really clean and it pumps more than is even reasonably needed(or wanted)... money would be much better spent on a better receiver...

Still controversial but oh well... Swans M10. Cleaned up the wiring and testing new camera flash... waiting for that new shiny desk..
Great looking Encores! I like the new style grilles.Bad pictures, but my room isn't very light. It's also very childish, hehe. Anyway,

Over the weekend, I ordered a home theater package of X-LS/CS Encores in the same finish as yours. I didn't get the X-Sub, tho. I bought another BIC H-100.

They sound brilliant. They are very easy to listen to at all volume levels and their sound is very realistic, especially when it comes to acoustic guitar. I knew they were good when I never bothered comparing them against my old pioneers.
I don't want to take the grilles off because someone at the factory stripped the screws
but I think the physics of their curvatures help the sound stage. You can also cause some crazy phaser effects by putting your hand in front of the tweeter, haha.Mr. Wolf said:
Good choice. My subwoofer is ridiculous for the size of room I'm using it in, and the sound style of the X series really supports bodacious bass.
From my understanding, the Encores have a upgraded tweeter. Beyond that, I'm not sure what the difference is, but I'll find out when my Encore bookshelf and center speakers arrive.

Pioneer Elite VSX-54TX Receiver
Infinity Primus P150 Bookshelf
Infinity Primus PC350 Center
KLH Audio Systems 9250B Towers
BIC Acoustech H100 Subwoofer (This thing kicks ass...)
I wondered what my BIC H-100 looked like without the grille... 'til now.
better or worse?
I usually prefer grilles on for my speakers. The X-LS snowman grilles were so hideous that they just had to go.

It just goes to show the quality construction of the woofer... I agree though, grills look better overall.

Gracias Ahriman4891... this is exactly what i was searching for
Insignias' with T-Amp Gen 2! Pairing them up with z-2300's Subwoofer (until I can pick up a cheap sub).
Edit: Retook the shots with ghostchild's (the guy on the next page) Nikon D80, looks much nicer.
A closer shot of the T-Amp, loving the little guy.

^How does that sound? Does the z2300 sub cross the sound over correctly? I've always been curious about that...

Huh? Great? By what standard? Of all the posts of actual great systems here, you pick one with Insignias? They're a good budget speaker but they are certainly not great.
My Audigy 4 actually lets me change the crossover frequency, so I think its fine (I've got it at ~65hz). The Insignia's spec says it can go all the way down to 50hz, but that's probably being too generous. Its a decent temporary subwoofer, I'm keeping my eye on the Dayton 10" from Partsexpress to see if it goes on sale.

Acoustech H100 will blow that thing out of the water.
Yeah...but its also ~$150 more expensive. The Dayton goes on sale for $100 shipped sometimes.
