What would be good bookshelf speakers for around/under 200$ budget? I would be using them in seperate room from the HT mostly for music listening(set as speaker B's) I am currently looking at Polk R20's,Infinity and probably JBL's.. please suggest.
Thanks!

I currently use the R20's with a H/K AVR125 and I think it sounds really good. I have 4 R20's A Polk Center and a Dayton sub. It isn't very spendy, but I think it sounds great.
thanks Thomas i was thinking of R20's too because they are on discount at Circuit City these days.. i also saw a pair of Klipsch at Best buy which seemed a good option, do you remember what wattage R20's are rated at?
Yeah, Polk recommends between 20-100W of power. My H/K puts out an honest 45W of power. It is more than enough to make them go as loud as I care to listen. I got them dirt cheap and have never regretted it. I know there is better stuff out there, but for a first system and a start in HT, they have been perfect for me.
I would suggest JBL S38II's. They are large for bookshelf speakers and getting hard to find but they are a bargain at the ~$250 price places have been selling them at recently.
Thanks Mark, well size is a constraint to an extent with me so i dont want them too large but ill have a look at them definetly and keep them in my options, probably Best Buy should have them.. thanks!
