Weird mix? Need to match tannoy arena centre to new fronts!

[admin_exported]

Hello. First post on these boards- go easy on me!

I added a Tannoy Arena Centre to my old kef 2005 setup (to boost the dialogue, in the small space I have available for a centre), and now I'm thinking I'd like to get more out of the front left and right speakers.

I have very little space so only smaller bookshelfs need apply!

Are the Tannoy arenas the only match? What would the kef 3001s be like? How about something altogether different like a wharefdale or Q?

This is a very tricky business!

The Tannoy Revolution DC4 would be an option if it is not too big. It has a Dual Concentric driver like the Arena.

Thanks- it's not too big either.

How much space should someone leave behind a rear firing bass reflex speaker? I could save up a bit for the signatures (front firing), if they're even still available!, but would go for the standard DC4s if I can get away with a small 5cm space before the wall
