Should I go with the Cambridge Soundworks 3-piece digital speaker set or the Boston Acoustics BA790 3-piece digital speaker set? They're both about the same price. What opinions do you guys have about these two brands? Please don't suggest anything more expensive as I'm on a tight budget.

Thanks,
Shooters

I agree. Recently I've heard some not so good things about the Cambridge line. Although, BA is a little less popular.

Klipsch sucks for true audiophiles who know what real sound fidelity is all about.

Go for the Boston BA4800s!

As others have said, both are excellent. However, here is another vote for Boston Acoustics.

I have the ba4800's and they are truely awesome!! The set that you are after is the same thing only with just 2 speakers and a subwoofer. I am very happy with my bostons but I wish that they had digital input although, most digital inputs and amplifiers at this level are not very good. They end up ruining the sound more than helping it:)
Go with the Boston's you won't be disapointed
Just my 2 cents worth:)

Correction the ba790s are digital speakers man you absolutely can't go wrong with these and they are only $99 at Best Buy right now:)
