I'm brian.
Here's the current 'home theatre' stack. Only two channel. I had 5.1 for many years but in the end decided it was just a gimmick. JBL Control One's wired up at the moment. I have a sub that is going to slot into that gap between the stack and the wall, just haven't got round to doing that yet. Job for later today:

I use Control Ones in my AV set up to, on the end of a Yamaha receiver. They're surprisingly good for their size. I was watching youtube music videos to the wee small hours & the volume increased slightly with each bottle of lager consumed.

Mine used to be the surround speakers. You can't fault them for the size and price. Think I paid £65 brand new and that included a set of metal wall-mounting brackets.

They don't measure very well though:

My ears are usually slightly alcoholically numb by the time they get cranked up beyond normal tv listening levels anyway so 'belending' the woofer doesn't matter.
They 'belend' a lot better than the speakers built into the TV anyway.![]()

TV speakers are bloody awful. Seems they make zero effort with them these days assuming everyone has an av sound system. I bought a cheap (£180) 40 incher as a stand in while I was waiting for my 65 inch Sony to be repaired and I've had transistor radios that sound better.
