I purchased a Pioneer VSX-1015TX receiver (the price difference to the VSX-9300TX was a little steep for my current budget). Now I'm looking for rear surround speakers for 7.1 mode. I need small, light, inexpensive, high wattage, "hangable" speakers (you know the kind -- holes in the back from which the speakers can be hung on screws, etc.) The speakers probably need to handle about 100 W/Channel peak to be safe. I have listened to the Sony SS-MB150Hs (which sound ok for rear surround speakers, but a little big, heavy and no holes. How about the Rocket OD100s for this purpose? Any other suggestions? Or would I get more "bang for the buck" by bi-amping my Deftech BP2002s?
Here's my current setup:
Pioneer VSX-1015TX receiver
Pioneer DV-45A DVD player
JVC Tape Deck
JVC SuperVHS VCR
Sony 42" LCD TV
Deftech BP2002s (Front main)
Deftech C/L/R (center)
Deftech BP2X (rear surrounds in 5.1 mode)
I've set the Pioneer 1015 to 6 ohm mode (as Deftech recommended) and it is a relatively small room (about the size of a speaker demo ("sound") room at a Circuit City Store, if that helps).
