Gentlemen,

Thank you for the feedback. The rationale for 2 full-range fronts is
solid yet I cannot live without the subwoofer, even if this is pure
psychology. A lot of music that I listen to is all about the low end
and without that it would be like eating food with no salt.
Certainly
I am exaggerating: I lived with a cheapish stereo setup that will be
blown away by anything decent I buy so not having a sub is likely to
make little difference but..

Is there not a powered sub + 2 fronts (bookshelves or sats or
lower-end floor-standing units) combo that will do better than 2
full-range fronts given a total budget of $600 or so?

If you must have a sub and don't want to (or can't) spend a lot of $$$,
check out Radio Shack. I got a powered sub for $150. Is it as good as
a $1000 Klipsch or whatever? No. But I'm happy with it... it makes the
flor rumble for me :-)
