Just want a few suggestions/opinions/recommendations. What to do next?
Hello all, I'm very new to here.. sort of, I did do most my research before buying this setup listed below:
Polk Audio CS2 Center Speakers
Polk Audio R50 Tower speakers (2)
Polk Audio PSW505 Subwoofer
Onkyo TX-SR805 7.1 Receiver
Now that I have this setup, I was wondering: 1)if the receiver choice I picked was a good one?
If it is good, my next question will be, 2) should I upgrade my Tower Speakers to the Tsi's maybe? (Although I'm not really for spending unnecessary money) But what difference would it make? and 3) I'm looking towards some surround sound in the future, so what speakers am I missing for a kicking awesome sound? I'm thinking about the bookshelf speakers. But then again, maybe I'll get new front towers and move my R50's to the rear? Any recommendations?
Glad to hear from ya'll.
btw I got those 2 R50's on black friday at frys. I forgot how much it cost me but I vaguely remember like $110-130 or so. Both, that is. Was the few who acquired the last remaining in stock.

Sounds like a plan too me, but I make sure the AVR you're looking at has pre amp outputs. You're not using them now, but you don't wish not to have them later.

The Onkyo 805 is a beast of an AVR, i'd personally get some Monitor 70's to replace the towers and a pair of Monitor 30's for surrounds before doing anything else.
