Ok, here's where I am in my system. We have a nice size dedicated home theater room in the basement of our house. Currently, I have a Pioneer Elite HD RPTV with KEF Reference 202c and 201s for the main, some crapping Bostons as the rears (Mainly because they needed to be mounted, but they do their job), a Denon 3910 on the way for DVD and I'm running it (temporarly) with a Denon 3805 which will up to the family room at some point in time. The KEFs are fairly neutral, however, if they do lean it is to the bright side although very slightly. They provide that great "British" sound which I always feel is a little warm so the brightness just may be relative, anyway, I'm getting off track.
Now for the question, I'm looking to go to separates in the room, we don't use the room nearly as much as I would like, so I've scaled back my budget some what (it's still an undetermined number though, I know, that's trouble). I have been looking at the Bryston setup (SP 1.7/SPV1 and 9B SST) the Aragon Stage One, ane the Parasound Halos (still undecided as too which one). I thought that I was done there until I read a review of the Cary Audio cinema 6 and the cinema 5 or 7 amp. It sounds like they may be great alternative and I would save a few bucks over my favorite of the above group, the Bryston. The rub here is that there does not appear to be a dealer in the Chicagoland area.
Long way to get to the question... :B Has anyone heard this set up and how does it compare the others in the group that I've mentioned?
