Ive been out of the speaker game for a while. I started with a kenwood htb505 htib and moved on to upgrade to an hk 435, polk rti6 mains, polk csi3 center and Svs PB10 sub. I then took up the challenge of designing and building my own speakers.
Now for my greatest challenge...keeping the WAF high enough for me to enjoy good quality audio on par with what i am use to and make sure she doesnt object.
So far ive been investigating in wall, sound bars(to simulate front and center), smaller wall mountable speakers and so on.
Surround speakers shouldnt be a problem and im looking at the SVS sb12 for bass duty. Its really only the fronts that are an issue.
To give an idea of the roomits about 18x14 and the tv will be above the fireplace(gas). There is a small ledge above the fireplace about 5 inches deep. The center will either rest here....or wall mount above or below the tv. There is not much distance to space out the mains because of windows on each side but any wall mountable speaker would work.
Id like to field any and all options that you think would meet our needs. ive been looking at mirage, aperion in wall, all sorts of sound bars encompassing c+r+l duties and so on. Id like to keep the price of the 5 or 7 speakers to under 2.5k. Thank you!
