For a budget of around $13,000 I'm looking for a good set of 5.1 speakers - mostly for audio but also fill in for HT use.
I have auditioned The B&W 802s and feel they are worth the upgrade over the 803s. I also compared the 802s to Thiels and preferred the B&W. Likewise preferred B&W over the Martin Logans.
What else are people looking at for this MAX price range for the whole 5.1 setup? I've heard great things about the Revel Studios but that 5.1 setup is considerably more.
For the surrounds I'm thinking the SCM-1 or the 805s and the HTM1 over the HTM2 for the center.
The ASW850 for the sub or maybe save some money here and go with the SVS 20-39PC plus sub. Anyone compared these for music (music is much preferred over peel the wallpaper effect some posters thrive on).
I've heard the 7.1 pitch but think I'll be content for the near term with 5.1.
