Its not perfect. No sound treatment, display is too high as I was planning on mounting a shelf underneath for the center. Cables are a mess
but been too busy remodeling the basement and doing other repairs since I purchased the house.
Anyhoo, I present my Ascends Towers RAAL. I have the Ascend Sierra center and an additional 3ch Emo that I had set up in my old house in a 5.1 configuration. I was using a cheap set of Polk bookshelf for the rears but sold them before I moved. Rears will be Ascend Lunas, haven't decided on height speakers yet.
These speakers measure well and so didn't really take much in the way of EQ to cross over well with the sub. I'm surprised with this room how good they do sound, not really
but they sounded better in my old house.
The sub is cheapo 15" Parts Express kit, don't think they even sell this model anymore. Plans for a pair of Rythmik once I get the theatre room close to finished, probably FVX 12 or 15s.
This room may get relegated to a dining room, haven't made up my mind on that yet.
