Built my theater in 2007 and had my left over speakers from college which included a Klipsch KSW12 which was grossly under-powered for my ~ 800 sq ft basement in my opinion. It lasted a valiant 12 months of me showing off my theater to my friends at max volume before a dogfight scene in top gun claimed its life. I moved on to the older model Elemental Designs A3-300 with the 13Ov.2 and LT.350 Amp. Added some cheap transducers from parts express about a year ago as an experiment because I was curious and looking for more bass. Pretty sure I killed my A3-300 last night...Just looking for expert opinions, here is my floor plan:
Concrete slab, all carpet except the bar area is faux hardwood, no doors on the office to the left. I would like to keep the sub where it currently sits next to the closet but I am open to all suggestions. Budget is $1000, maybe more if I can convince the wife. Bonus question, is there a replacement Amp for the A3-300 that will make the 13Ov.2 hit harder? Here is the specs on that Amp: http://www.edesignaudio.com/product_info.php?products_id=499
Thanks!
/ninja edit: Receiver is a Denon 2806 if that helps.
