IMO the best speaker I have ever heard and I have tested them against the very best and the very expensive.

I have System 800 studio monitors and not only are they the most faithfull at reproducing music the also make for one hell of a HT system.

Dual concentric is the way to go in my opinion. Very smooth highs and no distortion at all. The model I have is in their pro line but their consumer gear is just as good and better in some cases.

Which of their consumer lines would you most recommend for home theater - the Saturns?

If you are looking for a set of 5 speakers for surround sound the Saturn series is excellent.

If you looking for just mains and you have the money for it I would go with Definition series.

If you really have money to burn for your mains I would go with the Churchill or the Prestiege speakers. These are just unbelievable.

Thanks for the quick response, when I upgrade my speakers I'll want to do a 6.1 system maybe later this year. I currently have 5 Infinity Studio Monitors and a BU-150 - I'm happy with them but I know there are much better speakers out there for home theater now - including the Infinity Interlude series, but the guy who I got my HDTV from is a Tannoy dealer and even in his big open show room they really sounded nice - it was the Saturn series.
