I said this last time these were $195/pair, there is NOTHING out there that can touch these for Audio Quality for this price, NOTHING! I bought a pair last time and it takes a lot for me to be impressed but these are fantastic! In terms of price/performance ,they are now $189 and nothing can touch these until you get into the 750+ range, etc. I liked them so much that I just bought a second set! Also, if you have the citi/paypal 5% deal then make sure to use paypal and get another 5%, on my citi 2% card, it then becomes 7%.. Also, there is a very known Cb site that has 3% CB on these right now!
Also, I have (2) klipsch RP-450C center channels and NOW for only $259, I challange anyone to find any other Center that will sound half as good for only $259! Yes, the Rp-450c is that good! If you thought voices sounded good prior, wait until you hear what a mans voice sounds like on the 450c! It's one of the few centers that can go low enough to properly replicate a mans deeper voice with extreme precision, crazy real. I won't even go into female voices as that is a cake walk for this center w/ it's high quality horn. Keep in mind this has (4) larger drivers and is vented for lower Freq(HZ) extension thus it's pretty large, make sure you have the space for it, otherwise, you will NOT be disappointed in either of these two fantastic units! If you need black color, just buy some wood grain vinyl wrap on Amazon for $5 and all good....

Why do you need 2 central speakers ? How do you even connect it to avr?
That being said, most will love them and with some basic EQ or DSP you can level them out. I still stand behind that NOTHING can touch these for overall AQ for less then $190. Nothing! Throw in some EQ or DSP and then really nothing can touch them at this $190. They are monsters out of the box for HT, they are very very good for music but purists will want to "tone" them down or go for a non-horn monitors for $1500+...

still, what is the point of 2 central speakers? Especially big ones like 440/450c ?
Two completely different HT setups..... So, I thought I had a real good center years ago and I did but once I got my first RP-450c, I just did not think it could do that much better for that small of a price. Wow, was I wrong. The 450c is hands down the best center you can get under $500, no questions asked, the next best thing would be the 504 I and that is 95% the same unit.....

Got it. Thank you for clarification, I was just a little bit confused.

Elac debut 5.2 goes for around $200 during blackfriday, it's 230 right now, arguably better considering it has slightly deeper bass extension and is more neutral.
I'm not saying there's a clear winner, but it's an option.

Any suggestion on the floor standing speakers?
I have been looking at triangle bore BR08s but they are expensive.

No just no. This has a 6.5" cone and a much larger volume cabinet. The bass extension on these is ridiculous. I don't like the cherry cabinet and plinth on these, they're awkward speakers, but the quality of drivers+waveguide and the size makes for a ridiculous stereo setup for $190. These were absolutely speakers that delivered $500 worth of sound and now they're $190

It's also a speaker with an extremely high return rate. Not everyone's cup of tea sound wise.
For home theater it's fine to be more colorful, but for music you really have to think a bit harder.
6.5" cone does not guarantee better bass.
The Elac 5.2 has as much bass as this model or even the 600m. Ontop of WAY LOWER DISTORTION.

Triangle is hype brand, their cabinet quality is not up to par with their asking price.
I don't recommend towers for any purpose under any circumstance. Bookshelves + dual Subs is the way to go.
Tower gives at most 5-10hz extension below the bookshelf, which is USELESS and still takes up the same space while costing more. they're also not so neutral because of the extra crossover, most of the time that crossover is also cheap and inadequate.
A tower is like a bookshelf + a tiny 8 inch sub. You might as well get bookshelves + 2x 12" subs for way less than the cost of towers. The sum of which will give you much more volume, and better bass extension.
