I am looking to add a pair of rear speakers to my somewhat basic but growing system. I have Mission speakers for the front and centre and want to keep consistency but am unsure as to which to go for. Options are Mission M30i, M31i & M32is. Yes they are budget but should the obvious choice be the more powerful ones namely M32is or should it not matter too much. I don't want the weight of the M33i floorstanders to drown the rears.
Also should I consider another pair to turn my system into a 7.1 and buy 2 pairs of the same?? Which would compliment what I have?
Whilst on subject I am lost with the current wave of new av receivers and want advice as to whether I should concentrate on a receiver capable of handling 7.1. Would I hear the difference or should I think about a 7.1 receiver and bi-wire the fronts (limiting to 5.1) or should I just buy a 5.1 receiver??
I have been looking at Denon 1909/Yamaha 783/Onkyo 606 with particular interest of price and ofcourse availability. It will be my first receiver and although on a budget (£400) wish it to be as future proof as possible. Ability to handle upscaled 1080p signal needed, HD-Audio, Ipod dock option and min 3 hdmi inputs ideal.
Any recommendations would be warmly received.
Sorry I am a forum virgin so break me in gently
