RE: What the harm in using vintage speakers as mains in a home theater setup?

I've never heard that... maybe they are worried about speaker shielding? Though, now that most people are using flat screens, magnetic shielding isn't even an issue any more. As long as the speakers fit, I don't see any reason not to use them for home theater. I use KEF 107s in my living room system for audio, and video. I used to have a 5.1 system consisting of 5 Quad ESL63s, and an Entech sub... it was a fantastic HT system, but it took too much room for my new digs.
