I think di-pole speakers work best even in smaller rooms, my BW surrounds have a switch for mono or di-pole so I have switched back and forth several times and di-pole works best with better signal spread and disapear much better. I think matching 3 fronts is very critical but the surrounds dont play much importance so you can get what you like to look at and afford, I have had in the past a matched system and now have VMPS front and center and BW for rears. time after time material doesnt justify the hassle or expense in matching brands.
What difference between..........
I am in need of surround speakers.
My sytem: Jm Lab Diva Utopia be, Center 1000be speaker.
There is a SR 1000be speakers in the family of the Jm Lab.
My goal: 2 channel and multiple music and Home Theater.
I have the opportunity to buy the Micro Utopia be from a friend of mine. The Micro Utopia be is a monopole speaker.
What is the difference in regard to sound among the monopole,dipole/bipole speakers.
Which is better or advisable to have as surround.
If I understand correctly if I have as a SR a monopole speaker I will prevent myself of having the "magic" sound of the sound effects behind me.
Would you advise me to buy the Micro Utopia be?
My room is 21'x12.It is my living room.
My listen position is 7' in front of the speakers.
Space behind me 10'.
Thanks
