Should I get the Behringer TRUTH B2030P Passive Monitor Pair?

[Hanif]

I got an Onkyo TX-SR506 - 7.1-Channel Home Theater Receiver and are looking for speakers. I already got a HSU subwoofer as well. I am selling my 5 channel Polk RM10s and are going for 2 speakers that are high quality in music, gaming and movies. Please suggest, I live in Brampton, On

I am looking at these:

Will those connect to my A/V?

Hi how big of room are you talking?
And how far will you be listing?

Hi. I can't say if you should get those, but I can tell you that they will connect to your Onkyo TX-SR506. Also, they have a nominal impedance of 8 ohms, which isn't a concern for that receiver.

thanks for the quick reply guys

the room is a standard bedroom

I had the M Audio AV40 studio monitor speakers for PC and they were impressive - I wanted similiar speakers which I can connect to my receiver

Update: Going to pick up Infinity P152 speakers and test them out ($149.99 each) so I'll grab a pair

WmAx says that those Behringers have a very flat off axis response to 60 degrees, and will a slight modification (to fix an air leak) make a great speaker for the money.

This speaker is a lot more expensive in Canada. I wonder what the shipping cost from musicians friend is?

For that money I am pretty sure you could get Matt34's Beta 20's from the Classified Section.

These can be modded to be hifi and you would get the 3 so you could have your front sound stage set.

Use the same peelnseal rockwool replacement of the lining. Add some Oak rib braces and walla!

The 152's are very similar to the betas.

The B2030P outperforms the Primus speakers, although the Primus speakers have higher quality drivers. But higher quality drivers do not over-ride the lesser quality crossovers, cabinets and poorer dispersion that is characteristic of the Primuses.
