As much as I'd like to spend a ton of money on the high-end speakers I read about on here and in other places, I just can't justify the cost right now. When I move into a new house and have a dedicated HT room, I'll look into those. For now, though, I'm looking for suggestions for speakers on a budget.
I have a set of Logitech z-680s on my computer, and to be honest, as long as the speakers sounded at least a little better than those I'd be satisfied.
The one thing that is really important for me is that music sounds good through them. I want movies to sound good too, obviously, but this stuff will be in my living room and I probably will be listening to music just as much as I will be watching movies, if not more.
My living room is 20x13. The TV and couch are on opposite ends of the room, lengthwise, and they are both up against the wall. I can't really change this because of the furniture and other things I have in the room (rowing machine, coffee table, etc), so I'm also wondering what the best way to place everything is (most specifically, the rear speakers).
I know it's not ideal, but that's why I'm going the budget route - I know with the current room that my options are limited anyway, and that I'll probably be in a new home within a couple years, so I'll go all out at that point.
So now I'll shut up and see what you guys suggest. I'd like to keep it under $1000 for speakers and the reciever/amp.
