Lomb7 thanks for the reply.

Actually as of now I only have the EP500, I'm still waiting on the other pieces. But yes I will be using a M22 as a centre and I do plan on doing a side by side comparision between the M60 and M22 at some point. Actually, I believe Alan says its easier to compare single speakers in mono side by side so this may be just as effective comparison as between a 2 channel set up.... (Perhaps not for comparisons of sound staging)

Thanks, your sentiments are what I would have expected between the two.

Cheers, Jag

Hi friends,

After trying to shift through everybody’s opinion here and other sites, and confusing myself further, I purchased the Epic 50 System this weekend. I went with the light maple with black grills and I also purchased the stands for the QS4's. I was going back and forth about 50 times and was considering the M60’s and QS8’s. The money issue held me back from going all out; Toshiba 52’’ DLP, warranty, stand, etc. etc. Already well over my $$$$$ budget and already feel some buyers remorse. I’m sure I will be asking a lot of stupid questions once all the equipment gets here. Its amazing how obsessed you can get trying to pick just the right stuff.

Thanks again,

Scott

Good choice. The light maple with black grills looks very sharp.

As far as I can see from other posts the big benefit of the higher end speakers (QS8s, VP150) comes in a larger room. I think you'll be really happy with the qs4s and vp100.

Congrads, Spettifer you've ordered an awesome system and I'm certain you'll be thrilled with it! Great colours too.

This certainly does quickly become an obession on so many levels, why else would I be spending an entire weekend trying the find the "optimum" placement for my sub...

We're all learning, some members are just ahead of some of us, but there are no stupid questions, so ask away.

Have a great time with that beautiful system, Jag

I've pretty much got the Epic 50 sans sub and center, and let me tell you, it works quite nicely. You'll have to play with positioning on the M50s a bit, but that's true with any fine speaker. The beech with black grills are also nice (that's what my QS4s are) and look reasonably like real wood.
