Hi All,
New here. I've been doing a bit of speaker research and was finding a lot of helpful info reading your forums.
So now I'm looking for more specific advice.
I'm on a $400 budget for purchasing speakers. The good news is that I already have an Infinity Interlude 100 for a sub. (gave up the rest of the system in divorce a few years back, long story, unique situation).
I want to end up with a 5.1 speaker setup that I'll enjoy. Reading advice here and elsewhere, it seems smart to go with bookshelf speakers. Doesn't appear critical to match the rest of the speakers to the sub -- but I do eventually want all the other speakers to match. Agree?
I'm considering Klipsch RB-41 II, and also Wharfedale Diamond 10.1. Nothing else has jumped out at me in my price range. Does anyone have another suggestion?
I do own a very small pair of Klipsch satellites -- off the top of my head I don't even know what they're called -- they're small, but can take up to 100w. I've thought of using these as my left & right and buying a center channel first, then adding new left & right. Surrounds would be last.
Eager for suggestions. Probably purchasing pieces of the puzzle about one year at a time.
Will be buying new receiver too as my old Denon 2 channel won't do anymore as I'm aiming at surround sound. Looking at Onkyo NR414, Denon 1513, and Harmon Kardon 1700.
I know better equipment, brother is outfitted with Paradigm & NAD. But this is my budget now.
