So, did you actually HIT ANYTHING, or did you take the collar?

Well, Ken, I suppose some people exist solely as a frame of reference for how cool it is to be you. ![](/boards/images/graemlins/wink.gif)
Some people, however are like Slinkies. Not really good for much of anything, but they still bring a smile to your face when you push them down a flight of stairs.
Oh no....I think I just shartted myself in an uncontrolled bout of laughter....
......awkward walk to the restroom now. Damn you Tom.

Welcome Stymie,
4 Q's all the way around, nothing better.
Thanks guys!
Sirquack: This was my initial preference, but I don't have a rear wall and my ceiling is just a tad bit too low drop another pair of Qs from the ceiling. So my thought is to build a drop partition at about 8 1/2 inches for the back plate with a front plate at somewhere between a 20 to 45 degree angle to direct either the W22s or W100s at the listening position. I'm still researching those speakers to see what others have done. If I keep the x-over at ~100Hz then then the Q100s will suffice. If I want to drop the x-over down to 60 or 80Hz, then the W22s are the way to go. Right now I trying to see what direction to go in. I use my setup for 50/50 HT/Music.
Tom, if my wife would let me have a 600, I'd have two regardless of how much overkill they would be. Small victories. Small victories. ![](/boards/images/graemlins/wink.gif)
Ajax, it's all about the hat! Right now I'm leaning towards the W100s, unless someone talks me out of them. I'm experimenting with a pair of old Cerwin Vega AT8s as my rears, much to my wife's chagrin. Probably because I have them sitting on her antique end tables. You got to use them for something, right? That's all I'm saying. The end tables, not the speakers. I'm playing with the x-overs on the rears for HT and music to see if I can tell a difference and if so, if it's enough to guide me on my W purchase.
Sorry for the long post. Had to play catch up. ![](/boards/images/graemlins/cool.gif)
