You might want to look into speakers from a company called Ascend Acoustics...http://ascendacoustics.com/

They are located in Los Angeles and sell via internet only (I know...."buy speakers over the internet???am I crazy???) I thought the same thing when I first stumbled on these but they offer a 30 day, no questions asked, full refund guarantee, a 5 year warranty and their customer service is fantastic (my 6 year old poked a hole in one of the drivers a few months after I got mine. I emailed the company asking how I could get a replacement, got a reply the same day and received a new driver 3 days later at no charge).

I listened to MANY very high end speakers brfore getting these, had my doubts (many) when I ordered them but when I set them up and listened to them the sound quality both for audio and Home Theater, just blew away speakers costing many times more.

Thay have package deals that include sub's from HSU (very highly rated).

You might also read some of the consumer reviews on their speakers at ecoustics.com...[Link: ecoustics.com]

IMHO, one of the best speakers values out there. Hope this helps
