I am looking to build a new 5.1 system that will be primarily used for movies.
My current setup was built using Blues MTM for towers/center, and Blues TM for surrounds. I have enjoyed them, but I am ready to move on to something else. My budget is around $1000 a pair, preferably less. They will be powered by a Denon AVR X3500 and will need to be 6-8 ohm. Tower placement will be an issue as they will need to be fairly close to the wall and have furniture next to them. I was considering finalists or Statements, but ruled them out due to these issues. I was also looking at ER18MTM with ER15 center, but I don't know what I would use for surrounds. The surrounds will be wall mounted and the center will be on a media cabinet below the tv.
Any design I choose must have a matching center and surrounds if possible. I am not as concerned about bass, as I have a PSA S3601 sub. Whatever I go with should out perform the Blues speakers I have now.
It seems every time I find a design I like it either doesn't have a matching center, uses discontinued parts, or cant be driven with my receiver. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks!
