Home Theater ?'s

It's been a long time since I started this thread, and my plans changed significantly. I decided to use a room with lots of windows as my home theater room. That meant plasma was a better choice. I'm waiting on the delivery truck with my new panasonic 50" HD plasma as I type.
I spent a lot of time at avs forum, and I agree you have to take everything with a grain of salt over there. I did get a great deal on the HD upgrade for my Directv system because of AVS. If anyone is planning an upgrade look here:
New HDTV Dish and Receiver ---->$99
Now I need to find some speakers. I've had a pair of Klipsch KG4's since the early 80's, and I really love them, but I'm looking to go with something a little more streamlined. Does anybody own the Klipsch Synergy floor speakers, like the sf-1, sf-2? How do you like them? Are they as good as my KG4s.
I'm also going to add a sub. Anybody try the HSU subs that are touted over at the avs forum.

Mr Meineke of meineke muffler / Bass and meineke autoparts fame is a friend of our family's and has a home here in galveston, I'll see if I can get a picture of his theatre room. It is awesome. Mr Bass even has a theatre room on his yacht.
by the way the yacht was built by Don Aronow and is the largest real 'cigarette' ever built. Built at halter marine.
