Well, if you already have a short list, listen to the model of those brands in your price range and compare.
Best bang for buck in HT speakers under $1,500
looking for the best bang for the buck in a HT system. I currently have a Velodyne ULD15 sub and would like to create an HT system. Need center, mains, and rear speakers. These will be used with a reciever not yet purchased. I have narrowed to three manufactures: B&W, PSB, and Revel. I would prefer to use towers as the main and bookshelfs for rears. Your thought welcomed. I've some about the Revel F12 with C50? would this combo work with a 75 watt reciever?
