Reply To: Audience 212 Build Log

I am a big fan of the Cinema 10 for any type of surround use.  It is literally what I am using in my own theater and wouldn’t go back to anything else. As far as how they would compare to the DIYSG speakers, I can’t say for sure, as I haven’t personally heard them.  Having said that, Ryan, the designer of the 1099’s, and I are good friends.  And I know without a doubt he is a top notch designer.  So if you were interested in either of the builds, I think you would be very happy.  Just keep in mind the 1099’s are not designed for bass (really none of them are).  They are all designed to be high efficiency and clean sounding. They just do it differently.  The SB Audience drivers are probably going to be considered better by most people then the ones used in the 1299’s and 1099’s, but that is about it.  In short, most of this will come down to preference of design.
