Hi guys. I took advantage of black friday and got me a 60" led tv and im interested on getting aome good sound to go with it. How ever i dont want to spend a fortune on my first set up. I got a cupple of options and this ia where i need help. I woul like a 5.1 system so i was thinking a pioneer rwciver vsx 522. And for the speakers i got this options i would start with a 2.1 set up so i got this optionsEnergy take e xlc center and lr front.For abaute $120 usd4 b&w rock solid minitors whic i would use two for center channel and two for rl front channels for $400 usdYamaha ns f150 and later adding a yamaha center channel for $4805 speakers that ware made for chapsrral comunicstions inc. Which are a center channel. 2 floor standing fronts and 2 bookshelf sourrands. Now this one is a gamble bacause i dont have any info on them all i know they ware made for this company but i dont know who made them. But the price on them is $250 usdI know im all over the place that is why i need your help. Somthing important im in mexico where is very hard anx expencive to get good equipment. I know in the use you can get better for much less but this are my options.The set up will be use in a small room rectangular in shape with concrete walls and a single window. I will use it mostly for movies with ocasionally music. I will really apriciete any imput you can give me.

Forget the twin center speaker idea. Just don't go there. Keep the 4th in a closet till you find a speaker for your 5th. Or run front and rear without center speaker(AVR have phantom center mode).

Are you having them shipped to a location in the US then driving across to get them? (there is a guy on here in Canada that does the same)

Speakers are a taste thing, but of your list...I would take the B&W(which is the set you'd use without center).
