I have been reading a lot lately and wanting to build a set of front speakers for the beginning of my HT setup. Well I was thinking about starting off with the Modula MTs for practice and then I could use those as surrounds later when I upgrade the fronts. But, I decided might as well go with the NatPs since it wasn't too much more. I also ordered the Onkyo 707 to eventually power them.
I was sad when I assembled all the parts in my shopping cart, prices have gone up since 2005.
Well Im anxious to build them, Ill update this thread once I start putting them together and take some pictures of my progress.
Thanks for all the info!
Edit:
Here is the list of the crossover parts and my final shopping cart of items I ordered with the current prices from PE just for reference... I tried to make my order list in a nice picture with the part graphics, but the resolution wasnt working out too well, so Im just going to copy the jumbled-up list.
