That's a very personal and delicate matter...the best way is to listen to the ones available or look for a brand you like and listen to them (if you can find them that is).

Also, those speakers may need to match your receiver as well.

Ah ok, I only have an ancient surround hifi package.

Been doing my homework on this for a long time now, and I still can't afford what I really want.

Good luck though. Hope somebody here can help.

It only has the normal audio ones(the red/white ones). It still gives out really good sound while your watching TV or playing PS3.

rofl, the cheapest receiver you can find and 4 dick smith bookshelf speakers, dick smith centre speaker and a dick smith 10" sub. Will set you back around $400.

The Dick Smith speakers don't really sound that bad either, certainly not what I would expect from $30 speakers.

I have a set of Logitech speakers that I got for about $350 and they're AWESOME. The model number is Z-something or other. If you're interested, speak up and I'll find out the actual model number.

Alright, I got it. The speakers are Logitech Z-5500 Digital. They normally go for about $700, but one of the computer stores in the Green Guide sells them for much cheaper. Can't remember if I paid $450 or $350, but either way it was a great deal.

My setup ****s all over his now. LOL

The Dali Ikons are not too bad at all. Im looking at getting rid of my Vaf front 3 for a pair of stand mounts... Centre to come later.

Anyone after some Vaf DC7s and DC6 centre??
