If there is anything I am guilty of it is being passionate about audio and Mini's.

You recommended the Infinity speakers so you are guilty of this as well.
I really don't need to know anyones financial situation to make a recomendation when they are about the same price.
Type of music ;I will give you credit ,that would sway my decision a little bit but still would never make the recomendation you did regardless of music taste.

I am sorry we don't see eye to eye on this matter and I am even more sorry you could not take this as friendy advice, and you needed to turn this into something it is not.

If you would like to discuss this further please PM me so we don't clog up this thread
Veg1515,

If you carefully read my previous posts, you can see that I did not ever recommend the Infinitys. I only described what I used, said they fit, and that I thought they sounded great, which are all facts based on empirical data. On several occasions, I am careful to offer other alternatives and never imply that what I have done is the right thing for everyone. I never attack anyone's choices, or degrade any particular manufacturer (other than the OEM equipment). I believe that if you re-read your posts you will see the difference I speak of. That's what ticked me off. I really could give a shite whether you like Infinity or not, all I care about is that whether I am happy with my setup.

Also - you are making comparisons of a $4000 setup to a $400 setup. I sure hope it sounds at least 10X better, or you have wasted your money. Once you actually have purchased a MINI and installed your system, I'd love to hear it - I'd expect it to sound awesome.

For me personally, I'd never invest $4000 in a system to listen to compressed music like MP3's and AAC's - which is what I listen to in my car. Maybe you don't listen to MP3's, maybe you plan on installing an optical drive of some type or only listen to CD's. But either way, I would not publicly question your choices - because I have no data to form an opinion on.

I'll leave it at that, and I promise that if I have any more to say to you that it will be via a private message.
