Hi folks,
You were all tremendously helpful when I set up my first HT system almost 10 years ago. The suggestions were so great that my system survived (and performed well) through a fairly hectic life (9 moves in those 10 years)! So, I'm back for round 2.
My trusted Onkyo SR506 died this weekend, so I went ahead and bought a new receiver (another Onkyo, this time the NR747). Researching that receiver has definitely brought the "audioholics bug" back for me and now I'm wondering if I should also update my speakers and subwoofer. I'd love your help here - would you upgrade the speakers and/or subwoofer? If so, what would you get? If not, why not?
Here's my current set up:
TV: Samsung 65 (UN65JS8500)
Receiver: Onkyo TX-NR747
Blu-Ray: PS4
Speakers: Mordaunt Short Premiere MS302 x4 + MS304 x1
Subwoofer: Dayton Audio SUB-80 8" HT Series 80 Watt Powered subwoofer
Room size: 15 x 10 (I hesitated on posting this part because this is likely my last rental and the next move will be to a larger house, so if I buy speakers, I'd rather they also work on a much larger TV room)
My budget for the speakers is ~$1,000. I very strongly prefer to stick to bookshelf speakers.
I think the best speaker option I found so far is the Elac debut B6 x4, and C5 x1.
Thanks in advance for the help!
Let me know if you need extra information.
David
