Does anyone have a setup of all monitor speakers? I am looking to get the 45B's for the front, and have the 25C as my center. Right now I have T15's as my left and right, and will transfer them to the back once I get new speakers for the front. I'm on a budget and one day will upgrade. Are you happy with the setup?

    Its not that the setup is good or bad, but what are the requirements/expectations that the system needs to meet. For a large room it may fall short on impact, but will sound great in a bedroom or small den.

    For HT, I was very happy with my full 7 channel Monitor Series II (predecessor to the New Monitors). Where I became disappointed was when I tried to watch at lower volumes...they would lose some clarity at lower current levels.
    And they weren't very musical when listening to concert blu-rays.

    If my room was solely for movie viewing and nothing more, I wouldn't hesitate to buy them again.

    Thanks for the feedback! I am anxious to get the 5.1 going and with a budget, I chose this line. Down the road i'll look to upgrade to a better series.

    Agree with everything said above. I had the Monitor 60s, CS1, and Monitor 30s. Worked well for movies but for music they left a lot to be desired. Just avoid the PSW10 at all costs.
