Title: ISO Surround Speaker Suggestions
Post by: nickgregory on October 26, 2007, 08:53:16 AM

I am just getting around to finishing out the surround portion of my playback and need some input.  I currently have VR-2 fronts and a LCR-15 center, but need something small for the surrounds.  Reasoning is I sit ~8 ft from teh fronts and my seating position is against the back wall of the room so I dont have alot of room for a traditional set of floor or even most bookshelf speakers.  So as a result I have been focusing on a set of the B&W LM-1s for their size and reported clarity, but was curious if anyone had any other suggestions in this size range...

Thanks.

preferably I am hoping to end up with satellites, as bookshelfs are going to be a bit bulky, but I am not sure what I would be giving up from a sound perspective...have to determine what the trade off is I guess
