Advice on 5.1 setup
« on: Jun 09, 2012 at 03:42 PM »
I'm thinking of this setup for an HT. room size is around 10sqm. Will this be ok? Will be used for movie watching only.

If your looking for a basic set up, consider the Polk Audio TL1600.

You'll be fine with those unless you feel you need to be dissuaded here.

i think you would need a more powerful amp to really drive those wharfs to sing. you can try polk audio or mission. they are also a good match for those onkyos.

That set's okay as long as you don't intend on playing loud. You can do better if you can spend more, but it's hard to complain at that price.

If you have a chance to listen before you buy, please do so.

Wharfs are hard to drive but for a 10sqm area, it think it should be ok.
