Ok, maybe this is a question best suited for Leon, but anyone's advice would be appreciated. I just got a new center channel speaker, the JBL S-Center http://www.jbl.com/home/jbl_html/pro...rId=STU&SynId=. Very nice, and i got a great deal, only paying $140 for it.

Here's the question. I'm looking for a pair of main speakers to add to my system. I was looking at the JBL S310's http://www.jbl.com/home/jbl_html/pro...rId=STU&SynId=, but havent found a store in my town that has them. Ive listened the the S312, which only has a 12" woofer instead of a 10". I talked with a salesperson, and he said he thought the JBL S38'shttp://www.jbl.com/home/jbl_html/pro...rId=STU&SynId= sounded better and clearer then the S310's. Other than a larger cabinet and a 2' bigger woofer, am I really gaining all that much with the 310's?

Also, should I be looking elsewhere for speakers? Different brands, models? Suggestions? I've heard Leon preach the Energy Take-5's. Better than the JBL's?

Any help would be greatly appreciated. I got money burning a whole in my pocket, and a Home Theater set-up waiting to be used to its fullest potentials!

Thanks, Ian
