Are you a new company?
No, we have had experience in designing, developing, and manufacturing high-end audio products for more than 20 years. Many high-end, name brand products come from our source, but due to undisclosed and OEM agreements, this is all we can say.
Our brand names FBS (Firebird Sounds) and Phoenix have been well received and recognized among various international trade shows, magazines, and audio enthusiasts since 1992.
In order to introduce our high performance products with the lowest possible prices to a more general public, we decided to launch a web site to sell our products directly through the internet in the U.S. market. Now you can also benefit from the best performance to price ratio in the business.
Why do you sell speakers through internet?

Can I mixing & matching the speakers?
Each speaker is uniquely designed, timbre matched, and seamlessly coordinated in its own system; in order to ensure the most impressive sonic attribute and true cinema experience, we strongly encourage you to mix & match only in the same series of speakers.
If your order includes 5 speakers, and one subwoofer, you are entitled to receive a set discount. (subwoofer not required in Chopin SA & LE series)
Our ordering system is not able to recognize all mixed sets; however, we will personally review each order and apply a set discount when appropriate. The actual charged amount is not reflect in the order pages, and the discount may be different than the standard 5.1 set. You can also E-mail us at order@hometheater2u.com to find out if a discount is applicable for your mixed set.
Do I need a subwoofer?
It really depends on your room size, the main purpose for you speaker set, and personal taste . All our speaker sets are capable of providing deep, firm bass even without a subwoofer. However, for a true cinema experience complete with greater dynamic frequency response and greater dynamic range, we encourage you to consider purchasing a subwoofer for today's special effects packed movies.
A subwoofer is a speaker designed exclusively to reproduce a range of very low frequencies (20-200Hz). It is typically powered by its own amplifier; a separate track (the ".1" in a "5.1" recording) is recorded for the subwoofer in home theater. It dramatically transforms your hometheater into a cinema celebration .
Emotion is often projected through a movie's soundtrack and a subwoofer reproduces the compelling low notes that can absolutely knock you out. If your budget allows, invest in a good powered subwoofer- it is definitely a SOUND investment.
Are high performance cables worth the high price?
Speakers sound only as good as the cables used to connect them, so don't let low-grade speaker wires be the weak link in your audio system.
The supporting technology of great speaker cables is quite clear. In order to send an audio signal from one end to another with minimal signal loss, you require:
- A proper thickness (lower the gauge, thicker the cable)
- High ranked (99.99%) Oxygen Free Copper (OFC)
- A large number of singular strands of wire to put together each cable
To ensure the overall performance of our systems, and to avoid the usual overpricing of accessories, we have developed and manufactured our own high performance cables and stands to sell exclusively with our systems. Due to the high praise and demand of these products from its users, we have now decided to sell these accessories to the public to pass on the savings to you.
