Hi guys... promised a look at the system i had setup over the weekend so here's a preview of it. Note that this is just temporary until i move into my condo in Dec. The system is made up of PS3 + Onkyo 875 + Canton Chrono 5.1 + Samsung ordinary TV (to be replaced in Dec) + jack sparrow DVD player(for the wife). Camera couldn't capture whole area so just took half a pic

The sound for movies & gaming is absolutely fantastic. Clear, dynamic, full bodied, base is solid. Tried on a couple of CDs and sound was very good for pop contemporary R&B music but base was a little too strong for country songs.

Will post again when system is fully setup in Dec & all feedbacks welcomed. Cheers.

another pic without the grills...

ya.. am a newbie so didn't work on the tuning that much. Today i ran the audeyssey auto tuning thing & sound is much better now.

seriously look better with grills on?? i preferred them off

i know.. canton sounds like cantonese hence chinese ya?? hehe.. but they're german speakers la. I liked these because they come in piano black front surface (to go with rest of system i.e. display, ps3, my hari.. etc), & i loved the alluminium drivers & of coz, sound was great & price was reasonable.

coz most audiophiles appreciate honesty in life as much as they appreciate the honesty of the music that comes out of their systems

i have blue LEDs for TV cabinet & use fluorescent for recessed ceiling lights... Have white & blue at ceilings so have choice of white, blue or whitish blue ...

when you ready to change your blue LED strips to "ambilight" style RGB LED strips let me know ar.. your interior setting is good to show off this RGB technology..

that was the original plan, but due to shortage of funds I had to improvise
