"If you want to explain why you suggested the model that would be lovely!"

These have had some strong reports so far such as from Audioholics, are built like tanks, and sound wonderful to my ears in my room.

I have only received one of these as a Center in a surround and it is identical to the units sold for L / R except for the location and orientation of the badging.  Waiting additional shipment!

Out of that list, the Falcon, because I have heard them and they are very nice.  I would probably have to buy a new amp..... 

Not on the list is a speaker I’ve wanted to try for a while and that’s the Legacy Studio HD
