It's getting fixed this week. Tommy I currently use SCM1's for rear speakers and sometimes 5.1 music. I've been real curious about the 805's. Have you ever compared them to the SCM1's and if so what are your thoughts? opinions? My sales person has a pair for sale. Not sure if I would replace the SCM1's or keep them for 7.1 music and movies. Just wondering how much better the 805's sound. They sound great for the size as book shelves or smaller fronts. "Keep those microphones on and karaoke singers away"

I had some little 601's once doing home theater duty, but never pursued the higher end models because my wife doesn't like speakers "that are staring back at her with a big eyeball" such as the tweeter on the 805's.
