What are good sorround speakers?

Question

I will spend $100-$200.

Answer 1

I have a Logitech x-540. (bought from amazon for around 50bucks on sale). They work well for me. For $200 you can get a way better system though.

Answer 2

STAY AWAY FROM BOSE!!!!

I install home theater systems, and Bose is by far the worst I have come across.  Stick with a company like Jamo or Klipsch.  They are very good quality, and have affordable models.

Answer 3

Get a set of used Klipsch Quintet speakers on eBay. You get right and left front and rear, plus a center channel for around $200. You'll love them, especially if you eventually get a subwoofer.

And, for the guy who said Bose: Bose is over-priced and I think they sound terrible (muddy bass, missing midrange, and hissy treble). I bought a $600 set of Bose Accoustimass speakers that sounded so bad I gave them away to my stepson. I replaced the system with some used Klipsch Quintets and SW-12 powered subwoofer for about $500. Klipsch absolutely rocks.

Answer 4

No highs, no lows, must be Bose.

Bose:  Better sound through marketing.

Answer 6

Get the most expensive set of Logitech speakers you can afford.  The Z-5500's are the best but out of your price range.  Maybe you can pick up a used set on eBay?

Answer 7

BOSE

Answer 8

Personal preference, everyone hears differently. Best to spend some time and find what you like, not what everyone else says.

I prefer Polk myself.

Answer 9

For that price, Logitech X-540 will be the best bang for your buck. But to get the greatest surround sound, you should buy Bose.
