Well, I'm not sure about the 5.1's but I did try the FPS2000's and returned
them the very next day. They didn't sound as good as my ALtec Lansing
ACS48's. The sub woofer just couldn't match that powerful Altec unit. I
think I'd go for those new Klipsch ProMedia speakers. All reviews praise
them and they certainly have power behind them. I'd grab a set but it would
cost me a fortune to get them into Canada. About $430 bucks Canadian, ouch!

Brad.
