Aerial LR 5 or Thiel MCS 1 for ultimate HT SYS?


I cannot afford to do this more than once!!!!!
Which system would you go with The Aerial lr5,cc5,7b or
the entire system in Thiel MCS 1.

If not these, then what do you suggest?

Also, Classe 75 and cav 500 or krell hts and kav 200a/5?

I need your advice.

Since you asked here's my take. Ariel Acoustic makes a great product for home/theatre.

Having said that let me explain how my system came to be. When it came time for me to jump into the high-end H/T game an opportunity arose to purchase two demo MCS1's with stands, so I did. Later I added another for my center. I completed the system with two SCS3 speakers in the rear. I can honestly say this system kicks butt.

I also run a Velodyne HGS-15 Very nice!

As for Classe YES, THANK YOU:~)

I use a CA-301 to run the front left and right (Balanced) and the CAV-150 for the center (Balanced) and rears (RCA). This two-amp combo produces 600 watts per channel x five into 4ohms. My gear is all Theta, cabling is MIT. This system is complete with no where else to go for the time being.

I can honestly say that for my room this H/T system continually blows my mind and some times my eardrums. Absolutely amazing!
Ok Tom you never told us what amps you’re using? And what prattle are you using for rear speakers? Inquiring minds want to know. I've had people tell me the 7.2 are a mother to juice up. Do you really need 400watt monos for those babies? Do you still own them? What's your take on the 7.2 in general? I have been wrestling with the idea of using the CS6 as my fronts and moving the two MCS1's to the rear. So much for no where to go:~)
