    New to Aperion, thanks to the Oregon Coast GTG!!!

    I just wanted to poke my head in and say hi. As a new Aperion owner I wanted to say thanks to Ed and the rest of the guys for TOTALLY hooking me up this weekend with a gorgeous set of 6B's in Cherry and a great set of stands.

    We (my father in law and I who attended the event) went home to my in-laws after the event and set up the 6B's on the stands provided. He has a nice Hafler IRIS pre-amp/NAD CD player/B&K amp setup and we ended up listening to lots of various music for the next couple hours. Pink Floyd Brick in the Wall was outstanding! We were both extremely impressed with these guys and my father in law kept trying to get me to leave the speakers behind at his place :)

    I've got them home now and all set up in my living room. I will try to post pics tonight of the setup. Currently, it looks a bit like a GTG as I've got AV123 X-SLS' as mains and an X-CS as the center channel with the 6B's flanking the SLS' on the outside then my Velodyne DLS-4000R next to the Aperion's. It's kinda funny to have it all set up like that! I haven't had a chance to A/B the 6B's and SLS' yet but I will soon.

    Anyway, I just wanted to say hi and thanks for the speakers, they will be loved VERY much in my house :D

    Scott,

    Awesome, thanks for stopping by our neck of the woods and for the kind words.

    I had a great time at the GTG too, and was really stoked to be able to listen to all those speakers in the same place.

    Enjoy the 6Bs!

    So which center should I use with these guys? Logic tells me the 6C but this is a secondary setup that gets very little use for HT so should I just pick up a 5C? Its quite a price difference between the two but I don't know how differently they are voiced ... Help!

    All of our speakers are timbre matched so you can use either the 5C or 6C with the 6Bs.  If you don't use it that often and you won't be sitting further than 10-12 feet from it, I'd go with the 5C.
