im putting together a 5.1 home theather system and as of right now i have monitor 60's for the front, cs2 for the center, and some knock offs for the rears. Which set would blend best with my setup... the 30's or 40's??? I want to go with the 40's since they have a second tweeter but if theres no difference i might as well go with the 30's. Please let me know what yall think.

m40s only have one tweeter, you might be thinking they have two drivers(woofers). Obviously the 40s would be the better option in a perfect world. But the 30s can be wall mounted while 40s can not. So unless you were going to get some speaker stands (or wall stands), 30s would be the better option.
I hated using floor stands for surround speakers, they look completely out of place. Mounting them on the wall made a major difference for my setup and had a more surround feel too.AVR: H/K AVR240
