You could do a lot worse than the Pioneer SP-B41-LR speakers or the SP-FS51-LR floorstanders. The 51 and 41 are being discontinued, replaced by the SP-FS52 and SP-BS22-LR.

I'd go with the HK3490. I'd spend the extra $100 and get the Audioquest Dragonfly. I assume if you are going to be using FLAC you will employ a third party player as iTunes will not play FLAC alone.

Hi everyone I am new to the boards but I was thinking of running two 15 inch T0 Rockford Fosgate subs in my house does anyone have experience with this? I found them on sale at www.caraudiohub.com not sure if they are worth the effort of messing around with, anyone have any kind of experience with it? http://www.caraudiohub.com/Subwoofers/Rockford-Fosgate-Subwoofers/T0D4-15 let me know what you guys think

Why not buy a sub or subs actually designed for home use?

in that very few people want a sub in their home that will play one note incredibly loudly. Many people in car audio seem to want a sub like this, so I bet the market gives them plenty of choices!

Some good price for money subs come from REL and Emotiva and Hsu and what I own, Outlaw Audio. I would check these out for home use.
