hey guys well i dont know where to post this but what do you guys think is better for my rear surround?
a pair polk R15 bookshelf or onkyo Skm-100?
all other speakers in my current system are onkyo so i think it makes sense to get onkyo all around
HOWEVER the polk is physically bigger and deeper hevier
so which matters more?
same brand same model ? or physical size and weight of speaker?
