I'm about to jump into a high(er) end HT system and would really appreciate some advice.
I'm doing a 20x20 foot family room addition and am putting in a HT system for family (and my) use. The system is primarily used for watching content, and maybe 10% audio only use.
With a Rotel 1056 (and a Rotel 1040 dvd player), I'm trying to decide between the following combinations: Two things to note: (1) all would probably use the 675 sub, and (2) in ceiling rears are required (by the boss, errrrr, wife).
Option A)
L/R/C: LCR60 (x3)
rear: CCM 65
Option B)
L/R/C: LCR600 (x3)
Rear: CCM 80
Option C)
L/R: CM2
C: CMC
Rear CCM 80 (or 65)
I'm told that for my use, having all three front speakers the same is a big positive. Additionally, using the 602s3 as L/R wouldn't be as good as using the LCRs because the 602s are lacking a bit in the mid-range. I know this can get subjective, but any input helps.
I've read a little bit about the differences between the CCM65 and CCM80, but any other thoughts would be appreciated.
Thanks for any thoughts. This is a fun, but somewhat daunting process.
