Ok, time to show my ignorance. Any help will be appreciated.
I know one should not randomly mix and match speakers. How does one determine is speakers are 'compatible'?
I have 4 Paradigm Mini-Monitors (circa 2000) along with a CC-370 and PS-1000 in a 5.1 configuration.
I'm looking to upgrade to 7.1 for my HT. I'm considering getting three good speakers for left/center/right and using the mini-monitors as surrounds.
Which speakers would work? Only Paradigms? Only a subset of Paradigms? What determines what speakers will work well as surrounds for a given set of main speakers? The LCR will be behind an SMX screen so I'm planning on three identical speakers there.
If this is a 'stupid question', please help me by pointing me to an FAQ somewhere that will get me started, or by giving me keywords to search for.
Thanks!
