Anonymous | I have decided to purchase Onkyo TX-SR601 for my receiver and would like to know what's a the best speakers to match with it. I'm planning on using it for HT and music equaly. My price range is about $500.00 for the speakers. Also what subs should I consider? I've heard velodynes are good but polk seems a bit cheaper watts/$ wise.... Thank for your response in advance. |

For speakers, try to hear these and go with one you like - you gotta like it. These are pretty good ones.

Front m3ti Back QS4 AMMS4 center AES sub All for About $800 and it will sound even better than the above ones - I would recommend this one over others. You can read reviews on them here. http://www.axiomaudio.com/ Many audiophiles are saying it's the best deal in afforadable speakers. |

Anonymous | Axiom is a bit too high priced for my budget. However, I did looked at the pair JBL Northridge E80 series and they did sound nice. I was wondering what everyone else thinks of this model? |
