I'm in the market for a thin, sleek, wall mountable LCR and came across the Cinema 330's at the local store. They look slick and meet my expectation for sound, and although are a little high on the budget for me, seem nice enough quality for the $$$. I will have them paired up with a JBL 12" sub and rear surrounds.
However they also had a Millenia 20 Trio for about the same price as the 3 individual 330's.
So my question to you all - would you rather have:
A single Millenia 20
or
3 - Cinema 330's (LCR)
The guy at the store told me its a "wash" in these two scenarios. However I have to believe that the 3 individual speakers would sound better than the single "bar" system. However, if they did sound the same, I would totally prefer to have the single "bar" vs. the 3 seperate speakers for a cleaner look. I originally was out looking for a Yamaha sound bar, but decided against it. Now I'm back looking at this Paradigm sound bar vs. individual speakers...
Thoughts anybody? Thanks!
