Rear Surrounds Energy takes?

[Chrisk327]

need to pick out new rear surrounds for my living room. I had Polk R15s which worked fine as rears but now that I'm moving my setup in the living room and mounting the speakers on the wall, they seem large. I was looking for Satilite speakers as the will be mounted to the wall in plain site I want them to not stand out.

I have wharfedale Diamond IIs as fronts, Pioneer center and a Mirage S12 sub. Eventually I will revamp my front speakers, but as of now i need some rears to fill out the 5.1

I was looking at Energy Take 2.2s as rears. Price seems right, they get good reviews and based on what they say its what i want. I haven't had a place i can test them out.

I was also thinking about the Athena Micras as rears. Again around the same price etc etc.

I listened to the Polk and Infinity satellite systems. I wasn't all that impressed besides maybe the larger polks. The smaller satellites were too tinny.

I seem to have trouble locating retailers that have the non big name brands on display. I either have custom installers or best buy.

Either or.. I think I'm leaning towards the energys as they have deeper bass response.

I listened to the Polk and Infinity sattilite systems. I wasn't all that impressed besides maybe the larger polks which were adequite, but not impressive. The smaller sattilites were too tinny.

Any thoughts?

My neighboors use Energy Take sats. as background speakers in their house. For their size they have great bass. I would recommend them as rears, they should do the job just fine.

What about Athena S.5s?

They come with their own little mounting brackets, I'm listening to them right now they sound great!

Edit: I just checked it says they only have one S.5 in stock, but they have the black ones too, for $93 a pair or something.
