Hi guys,
been lurking on here for a while admiring everyones set ups, finally deciding to plop down some money and upgrade mine. To start off I have an old HTIB from Onkyo so the speakers are all pretty crappy and the receiver wasnt great, about 4 months ago i upped the receiver to a Sony str-dn840 (still not great I know but better). I am now looking to replace my front left,right and center speakers.
I was looking at Monitor Silver 6's but went to a store to demo them and they didnt have them, instead the salesman insisted i listen to Golden Ear Triton 7's and that they are a better set. I listened to them and I do admit they sounded pretty good but they were being played on a $4k Anthem receiver, so I am not sure if they would sound even close at my house.
My question is would these Golden Ear speakers be a good purchase? Or am I wasting my money due to my receiver?
Thank you for your help.
