I recently upgraded my television to the Sony 34" KV34HS510
hdtv, and bought the Harman/Kardon AVR230 Receiver.
I have had a set of Onkyo 5.1 speakers that I bought at CC about 1-2 years ago (time flies....:b )....They are the Onkyo SKS-HT500, which I think were around $300 for the set. They sound pretty darned good for 300 bucks.
Anyway, I would like to upgrade the speakers, beginning with the fronts. I want something that will be great for music as I listen to a lot of music, but will also be good for movies.
I have been reading this forum off and on for the last couple of weeks, but find myself more bewildered than ever. I am pretty much a novice at home theater at this point.
Anyway, I can't spend a whole lot of money for the speakers (I am thinking $500 or less for the pair). The room is 13 x 20 feet.
I would then obviously add pieces later on.
Then the question becomes once I have the two fronts, can I still use the center, sub, and surround speakers, or would it sound cruddy?
Consumer Reports had rated Sony SS-MF750H number one in November, but I could not find any posts regarding these speakers here. Please help!!
