Cool unit .. I have a comparable bookshelf system, and I would highly recommend getting a sub for it .. 100% improvement.

So connecting a rather decent amp around 200 bucks will suffice?

Any self-powered sub within line-in jacks would do nicely .. looks like the MCR-332 has subwoofer out terminals so that will make it easy.

Visions has a sale on subwoofers until the 25th

Thanks, General. This is the amplifier I purchased: http://www.amazon.ca/gp/product/B005PXGT0W/ref=oh_details_o01_s00_i00

It's powerful for my room and it looks nice as well with a piano finish (which goes with the rest of the set). Lots of options too on it. Thoughts?

Energy makes really good speakers, you will be more than happy with that one.

Digging the Gentle Giant? Not everyone's cuppa, I love them but they can be a tad hard to get into especially on Power and the Glory (which is my favorite).

I love anything inaccessible. It'll take longer to get into, but once you do, it lasts a very long time. I've been loving GG for about 3-4 years now. Excellent, excellent, Electic Prog.

Geometrical counterpoint is how I understand GG. Other-worldly stuff.

Portrait. Amazing heavy metal. Vocalist has surely listened to King Diamond.

Someone needs to tell the band to come up with a better font for their logo because that doesn't look like portrait.

But you said KD so I'll check them out to see what they're like.

You, at least, survived. Not everyone does. Good for you!

And I will check out this Portrait stuff soon, thanks Thomas
