SVSound - Complete Systems

Try to find speakers that were specifically designed to be wall-mounted. Vibration and resonance can be a real problem when wall-mounting. Some speakers are designed with this in mind, and other speakers are designed specifically to have some open space behind them. I've seen a lot of di-pole rear surround speakers, but less options for the fronts. would you be open to the idea of stand-mounted front speakers in front of the wire outlets? That would open up a LOT more options (stand-mounted fronts, wall-mounted di-pole surrounds).
Also, I imagine you'll want a sub. How big is the room (overall volume estimate).

SVSound, the link in my previous post, sells high quality wall mounts for their book shelf speakers that are used as surrounds in their 5.1 and 7.1 speaker sets. You will be hard pressed to do better than SVS speakers for the price.

You should go to your local Hi End Audio / Home Theater store, ( all ways support the local guy Stay out of big box stores) talk the them, and see what they recommend, and if they would come out and install them for a weekend trail period.. The only way to know if you are going to like them is in your home.

Polk is very good in that price range.

Done all my home work. Going with the Polk RM20 set with the Polk PSW125 sub.

You must have found a set for cheap. Hope they work out for you. The woofers in the surrounds and center channel are pretty small so you shouldn't have any problems with a wall mount at all.

Well, they only have the pewter at Amazon. Can't find the black set any where. They are 699.00 with no sub, but you get 199.00 off of qualifying subs. Not sure if I want to go with pewter, but I really want those speakers.

Well the black Polk Auaio RM20 series has been discontinued. Went with the RM95 series, and added a DSWPro 400 sub. WOW!! Great sound. Every thing is crystal clear. I play Resistance Fall of Man alot and I now hear little sounds that I never heard before. What's mst impressive is that my wife noticed this as well. She has asked me two or three times now to boot up the game to hear it. Movies sound great as well. Put in Transformers, excelent, and 300 just to top it off. Amazing!!!!!!! Great speakers for anyone wanting a set under a 1000.00 bucks.
