$1,300 Budget

[bryce.thompson]

Like the title says, I have about $1,300 to throw around in the speaker department.

I'm in a little dilemma because I don't know what to buy. I'm able to get the following Klipsch Reference set up for about $1,100:

two-RF-82s
one-RC-62
two-RS-52s
and one-RW10d

I've only heard great things about these speakers, but have found a few other speaker companies on the web for roughly the same price.

For example, Elemental Designs has a great 5.1 package for $1,300 that includes their A2 - 300 subwoofer. What are the opinions of people who have or have tested these speakers in comparison with the Klipsch.

Also, within that budget, what other speaker companies should I look at?

Thanks for your help.
