I have a room size of 13*19ft and this is my living room and my wife does not big bookselves speakers (ok with a smaller bookself speakers) want I am deciding between infinity primus 153 fronts with PC 251 and a sub (either BIC f12 or SUB-100) for total of around $430 or a Martin Logan MLT-1 (~$300) . On the MLT-1 we would be mostly using it as 3.1 for immediate future untill we move. We listened to Martin Logan MLT-1 in frys and liked it.
We arrived at Inifinity primus basically reading some of these forums and comparing the speaker sizes.

My main purpose is movies, regular tv and music. Receiver I have purchased is Denon 1911.
These are my only two choices which one would you recommend?

Is that really your only 2 choices - I would not put the MLT-1 in your
size room. The Infinity 153 would work better.

thanks! We settled on this after considering the recommendations and the speaker size. Let me know if you there are other bookself speakers with relatively smaller profile.

I use to own Infinity Primus speakers.
Hands down - my choice would be the Boston E40 - You can get
3 of them - use one as a center speaker. I use to own them, and
they are real good. They use to list for $399 each.
