Hi,

I am currently building my HT and I need some advice. I have read a lot of reviews/comments on forums but now I am stuck on one last part of the build, the rear speakers.

First of all, here's what I got or plan to purchase:
Front : Monitor 70
Central : CS-20
Sub : Polk PSW-110
Receiver : Denon AVR-1912

Now, I need to choose the rear speakers... the thing is that I'm in Canada. I was going to buy the Monitor 30 but It doesn't seems to be available anymore in Canada. Neither is the monitor 40. So Now I'm looking at 3 models that fit my budget : TS100, M10 or R150. I have read that you better try to fit the speakers series but it seems impossible to do, except if I'm willing to pay ridiculous brokerage fees.

Which bookshelfs speakers would you recommand considering the rest of the build ? I rather have a better sound in Music listening (5.1 blu-ray show) than in Movies.

One last question I would have his, would it make a really big difference to get the TS200 instead of TS100 ? Considering right now that there's almost $100 difference between the 2 in Canada.

Thanks a lot for your help/advice! I really appreciate if some of you would share their experience/wisdom! :)

    From what your options are I would go with TSI 100. They should be fine for surround.
