Harman Kardon HKTS 18 vs HKTS 14 - Blu-ray Forum

Grimfate126 · 06-24-2008, 01:51 AM

Hi. Ive been hunting for a good speaker system for less than 500, and zoomed in on the HKTS 18. However, i just realizer that the HKTS 14 has a 2" bigger subwoofer (same wattage, 200), and is cheaper. The 18 has heavier tweeters. Other specs are identical. i will be using the onkyo TX-SR605 receiver.

So, my questions are

1. how big of a difference will 2" make (for the subwoofer driver)? my room is about 17'x14'?
2. does anyone have another suggestions for speakers (less or equal to $500)?
3. Do the heavier tweeters mean anything? or is it just the casing material?

Thanks.

You may want to check out www.jandr.com for the HKTS 11 for $320 shipped. It's similar to the HTKS-18.
