Please help me decide L5's or L7's

[kingjames]

I can buy a pair of L5's for about $400.00 or the L7's for $450.00.I want to use these for my fronts on my 65 incher. I have a set S2's on the rear and an HLS center.These are powered by an HK AVR-520.Is the woofer on the L7 that good that it justifies the extra money.What would you guys get?

Did you read this thread?

I am not sure how much room you have, but it doesn't look like the ideal environment for a pair of L7s is on either side of a big TV with the woofers firing at the electronics.

Thanks, JohnW,this is what I was looking for.

Does anyone know the crossover point in the L7s between the LE120H and 708G?

I have set my brother up w/l7 , l5, cl505 , and a low powered 12"sub. all and all I happy with it. I am tryng to get l1 to compare to the cl505 to see if that would be an improvement.

If I were to do this again 4 l5s, 7s not worth the extra effort in a set up like this. better sub would be fine and easier to deal with. If it didn't look funny I would put the 5 up front and the 7 in the rear but WAF won't let that happen anyway
