I am slowly picking up the necessary pieces and now it's time for the Rear and Centre speakers. Not having listened to any decent AV systems I am interested to know how much weight of the sound .. and the general experience comes from the rear speakers. I do not feel that a little pair of trebly bookshelvers stuck at each end of the sofa is going to cut it for me .. I am thinking of a pair of decent floorstanders which will have the tweeter at ear level ... I want the full experience all around .. and not just some tweets coming from the rear ... ...
Does this make sense ... or will I be going for overkill.
The reason I need advice is that I am considering purchasing some KEF 105's for the front .. and I will put my refurbished and redrivered Castle Howards at the back .. They have an upward firing mid bass driver that I can place under my slanted roof which will throw that refection out and up and back towards the listener .. I just have a feeling it could sound quite special in that application .... Any thoughts anyone ... and also centre speaker type ... whats wrong with just an ordinary bookshelf thingy in there ? ....
