Swaping out my rear maggie 1.6's
« on: 8 Mar 2011, 07:36 pm »
I'm considering swaping out my rear effect speakers which are magnepan 1.6's. The main reason is due to the fact that they are floor standing speakers and 60% of the speaker is hidden from the listeners ears by the back of the couch which sits 5' from the back wall. Without creating a which is the best surround speaker out there war. I'd like to ask, Which speaker is the best out there? I'm looking to go with a wall mount in the neighborhood of 12 to 15 hundred dollar range. One that will pair up well with a Bryston 4b amp and my main magnepan 3.6's and CC3. My room is 19' x 19'
                    Thanks,

I'm a big fan of the Paradigm Studio ADP-590.

Why not the wall mountable Magnepans?  They are not as tall as the 1.6s
