Good Home Audio & Video Forums

I will be upgrading my home (Bose Lifestyle 12) system and want to do some research. What are some good audio and video forums to browse?

I've signed up at AVForums which has a lot of information but it seems to be eurocentric and I'd like to see something more domestically oriented. I've also seen AVS Forum and Audioholics. Any others?

With AVS Forum already on your list, you probably have it covered. Once you find a few components you're interested in, you might try looking on pricegrabber.com for some pricing info and reviews.

AVSforum.com... the only A/V site I use. Audioholics is good too... but I prefer AVSforum all the way...

BTW, one thing you'll probably find is that most audiophiles are not big on BOSE. Just a heads-up....

No worries, I'm ready to move beyond the Bose system and will not take Bose criticism personally.

Be sure your new system has an SVS Sub and everything will be alright

SVS Subs definitely have a stellar rep from what I've read. A bit pricey for my budget but . Hsu Research STF-1 and Onyx Rocket ULW-10 are probably within my reach. Also the Wharfedale SW-150 (to match my Diamond 9.1). Any others to put on my short list?

AVSForum all the way....in my mind, the only place to go.

I own a Hsu STF-3 and love it....it blows the house up and the wife is always complaining about how loud it is

Hopefully a reasonably loud STF-1 will keep the wife happy.
