Both are good speakers, however both have reputations for being fairly bright. Best bet is to audition both and pick the one you like better.

Either one you choose to go with, it will not be a bad decision.

It can in some cases. I find entry level systems like Onkyo + Klipsch, Polk, Monitor Audio Bronze/Silver, the lower PSB's etc to be very user friendly and don't require overloads of data to make a purchase decision.

Buy what sounds good, plug it all in and enjoy. Now if he came here asking about Martin Logan Vistas or Sonus Fabers on an Onkyo, then we'd have something to discuss.

I wouldnt consider those to be entry level. maybe mid level, but not entry.

In my opinion it's entry level. Even what I have I consider entry level.

A mid range system to me would be the new Marantz 8003 pre/pro and PSB Synchrony 5.1 or Monitor Audio Gold.

An example of a high end system would be Monitor Audio Platinum or B&W 800 series running off of a thirty thousand dollar Simaudio pre/pro.

Those are entry level. Heck, like Cazzy said, 99% of us here are, audio-wise, entry level.

Me neither. I tend to think of entry level as HTiB or Blose. I don't mean to suggest my system is high-end by any stretch of the imagination, but I think it's a step up from entry level.

Default Songs for demo

What's some good songs to demo these speakers ? I'm leaning towards the PSB's but for one last time I'm going to demo them.
And is $1.300 Total a good price for the T65's and C60?
Thanks Everyone.

A very thinly guised insult.

Anyway, I don't see how you can look at what I came from to what I have now, and say it's at the same level. What I came from was first a Panasonic HTiB, followed by an Onkyo HTiB speaker setup. What I have now may only be a small step up, but a step up nonetheless. And I've looked at your HT gallery. How on earth do you consider that to be entry level? There's not an entry level system on the planet that can compete with it. At least not what I consider to be entry level. And when I said I didn't consider the before mentioned brands to be entry level, it wasn't to "blow my own horn" or even because I happen to own one of the brands mentioned. It was just a statement of opinion.
