Go with the Z623 like SoulXIV said. Also, you're not going to get deep bass from just any speakers lol. Hell, even my Z623 chuffs at about 40hz at low-moderate listening volumes (although I do have the bass knob turned all the way up ). The soundsticks only handle 40 rms watts (20 for the sub and 10 for each satellite), so they won't be getting very loud at all. By comparison, the subwoofer alone on the Z623 is capable of 130 rms watts.

@IGotModded: dammit, I'm in Calgary

@johnk23a1
if you're in vancouver
there's a store in aberdeen that carries the soundsticks

Well then get the Z623 and be done with it

[quote=SoulXIV]Promedia 2.1 was $100 a week or two ago. I would go with Emotiva Airmotiv 4 or Audioengine A5+, both don't have a sub...but you usually don't need one for a room setup unless your room is really big.[/quote]

@IGotModded: Canada, most store here sell the other two and none sell HK.

@JohnK23A1: where do you live?

@IGotModded: Bose is now off my list, time to look for a store with HK.
