High Points
• The LCR looks far more impressive than its price would have you believe and, when you consider the level of control and customization Outlaw packed into such a compact and affordable speaker, its price becomes even more impressive.
• While quite musical in nature, especially when used to listen to multi-channel music, the LCRs are home theater speakers at heart and can rock a film soundtrack and/or explosion like nobody's business.
• Dialogue through the LCRs is intelligible and natural, while the overall spaciousness and sonic oneness the LCRs possess between all five matching speakers is awesome.
• Dynamically, the LCRs may have no equals in their price range.
• The level of control and quasi-EQ the LCRs are equipped with make placement and set-up a breeze and maximize the LCRs' potential in almost any environment.

Conclusion
For just under $650 each, the Outlaw LCR loudspeaker is a true home theater enthusiast's dream come true. Mate the LCR to a flat panel display and a capable receiver and you have yourself a take no prisoners home theater on a budget that will have you scratching your head and wondering why you'd want to spend more. The LCRs' sonic traits are impressive, to say the least, and one only needs to spend a little time with them to fall completely in love.

You could use any sub, of your choosing, which I have done and they still sound spectacular...DD

I am seriously considering these speakers for my surround system.

Okay, okay I'll bite. I concede that you have "the answer".

What's the question?

You need to see the movie "The Hitchikers Guide To The Galaxy" for that.

I got a few questions about these speakers.

1) my HT room is 12 ft wide and 24ft long with the second row seating almost all the way back there would you say that these will work good in that room or should I look at something more powerful?
2) I have the SC-07 on order -- any issues anyone can think of?
3) I have to go with in-ceiling for the 4 rears (to complete 7.1) that is just the way it is based on wiring, room layout etc. Any suggestions on in-ceiling speakers that would work well with these? I need something that will spread the sound and not just bring it straight down.

EDIT: I want to go with a 110 inch screen since my room is so long. That means that the screen will be 96 inches wide and my room where the screen goes is only 130 inches wide. So 17 inches on each side of the TV. These speakers are 8 inches wide so that only leaves 9 realistically I am looking at 5-6 inches from the side wall and about 10 inches from the back wall. How bad is this? I realize it isn't optimal, but how much will it be a negative? Are there other speakers that would suffer less / something in speakers I should look for

The LCR's should be great for your front array (L, R, Center). As for in wall/ceiling speakers, something like this would match well - http://www.onecall.com/ProductDetails.aspx?id=92905

The SC-07 should make all of these speakers scream with delight...

And lastly with the innovative switches the LCR's have to compensate for a variety of room configurations and speaker placements, I believe they would be the best choice for you and sound great once you get them dialed in. That is better than any other option currently available. And of course they are bi-ampable as well. :D

Hope this helps...
