What rear surround speakers?

[admin_exported]

I have a B&W 685 system, and want to add some rears to make it 7.1. I haven't got room for another pair of 686's and the DS3's are way over the top for me. I have a Onkyo SR606 with Chord Carnival Silverscreen cables. I was looking at Monitor Audio R45HD's and BRFX's Anybody got any thoughts on these or any other suggestions please?

Hi. I have just gone from taking my side speakers away from 7.1 and gone back to 5.1 while moving the rears closer behind my sofa.

I have found this a big improvement for my sound field. Also there are so few 7.1 soundtracks that come out that it was a waste of space for me. I am going to invest in a better Subwoofer for my next fix.

Cheers.
