Well, after building my atlas 15, it really shows how inadequate my mains are, so i need new ones. Problem, 300$ canadian budget. I went to bestbuy ( i know i know, shoot me) and actually was impressed witht he sound of what $300 could buy you. Anyway i mianly looked at these two speakers
The yamahas:

and the Sonys:
(also 300ish at bestbuy, but not on the site for some reason)
http://shop1.outpost.com/product/365...H:MAIN_RSLT_PG
Some things i noticed,
-Yamahas seemed to have a bettersoundstage, but cant give a perfect comparison as they were placed about 5 feet apart and the sonys were about 2
-Sony have larger cabinets, but size is not as issue for me
-Yamahas drivers looked a bit cheap, and not very good quality
-Sony has the cone area advantage with an 8 woofer as opposed to a 6.5"
Which one would you go for? or any other suggestions? they cant be more than 300 cad shipping included before tax.
this is for a 50/50 home theatre/ music system. and my sub is MORE than adequate.
