    HTM4S or HTM2 with 805s

    Like the title says. I'm just wondering if i can get away with getting the HTM2 over the HTM4s. I can get a much better deal on the HTM2 but im worried about HTM2 matching with the new 805s.

    Thx,
    Peter

    The HTM2D will over-power your 805s. Still with the matching HTM4S.

        Ahh... got it. The Nautilus HTM2 will work, but the HTM4S will definitely seem to be the better match since the new 800 series uses a different tweeter and crossover. Don't know if someone has the 805S and Nautilus HTM2 combination to give their feedback. If not, you can always check audioreview.com.

              Center Speaker Question; HTM4S or 805S?
              by sskim
              I'm in need of a center speaker to match 805S. Question is what is the best match for 805S? Is there a noticeable difference between HTM4S and HTM2? Since I'm on tight budget does anyone see problem matching HTM2 with 805S? I also read that having three identical speakers for front L/C/R is the...

              HTM4S vs HTM2
              by mintchris

              Anyone have any experience with the HTM2? I am going to pick up a pair of new 805s's this weekend and I need a centre. I was going to get the matching HTM4S but there are several good condition used HTM2's kicking around for half...

              HTM2 vs. HTM4s
              by kylek100
              Right now, I've got an HTM7 center. I paid about 750 for it I believe. I am going to be upgrading my 602 S3's to 805S in about a month. I like my HTM7, but i notice areas of improvement in the sound, and I realized that for only maybe 500 bucks extra I could trade in for an HTM4S which I hear is a significant...

              Centre to match 805s's
              by Cheapskate2003
              Hi

              I have just bought a pair of 805s which I love and now I need a centre to match, I know the obvious choice is HTM4s but would it be worth seaching out a used or ex-demo HTM2 or HTM1? Would they match well or should I just stick with the HTM4s?

              Any views would be great...
