Describe your HIFI -system

[paragon]

Sajt, you are the one to try to sell some JBL parts on Ebäihh ??

[short_circutz]

Current:
Older Sony pro logic receiver
2x Lansing 99's for mains
1x EAW FR122HP for center
2x EV 3512 THX theatre subs (Soon to have the woofers replaced with 2242 recently removed from an install at a local club)
Crappy little speakers for surround duties at the moment cause I couldn't find anything sensitive enough to match the Lansing 99's for sensitivity usiong the Sony's internal amplification.

My main complaint of the system right now is that the current surround receiver is the system limitation. Surround channels on it with internal amplification is extremely low. The Lansing 99's and subs don't need a lot of power to get loud.

I have 4 amps I am rebuilding. 2x Crown D150a amps, which will be used for mains and surrounds, and 2x Crown PSA2 amps and will be using one bridged on each sub. (subs will still be underpowered with only 650 watts going to each one). I will hopefuilly in the future be using a Harmon Kardon citation 16 amp for the mains. (get the idea I do some install work locally??)

There are a pair of Jubal 65's in my future (hopefully VERY distant future) as they are my fathers primary speakers in his system.

We have two operational Harmon Kardon Citation 16 amplifiers, one still being used in active PA duty at a small bar here on a rental system.

So eventually I want my system to be the following:

EAW speaker as center speaker
Jubal 65's as mains
Lansing 99's as surrounds
2x 2242 in 9cubic ft cabs for subs
2x Crown D150a (center and surround duty)
2x Crown PSA2 (subs)
1x Harmon Kardon Citation 16 (Mains)

I have to try to revive my 25 yr old Sony 50" front projection set as the picture is getting weak on it.

Obviously, my preference is for mostly vintage gear,lol.
