Hi all,

I had my mind set on Klipsch, but after an audition I was not as impressed as I thought I would be. So now I am looking at axiom. Looking to get either the M80's and build around those or purchase 1 of the home theater systems. How much difference is there between the HT system and the M80's with surrounds..(sorry don't have all the model numbers.) Most of the use will be for movies and sports. About 25% will be for parties as this will be in the basement. My room is 14' by 26' by 8' on one side there is a half wall that joins to my bar. I will be driving these with a Marantz 6003 AV. I would like to say that money is not an object but it is. When you add up the price of purchasing M80's, a 150, surrounds, and a sub... the HT package looks much better. Will 2 channel listening suffer?

Thnaks in advance.
