Good Lord! I thought I would mostly just be using my 1050/Paradigm Studio 40s for music until I could complete my system with surrounds/front/subwoofer. But I popped in Lord of the Rings:FOTR and I was amazed! You would think I owned a subwoofer the way the 40s sounded. Admittedly I am upgrading from basically a clock radio, but this combination really shines with home theater!
