    the CS1 should suit you just fine....
    I never had it like this where I grew up. But I send my kids here because the fact is you go to one of the best schools in the country: Rushmore. Now, for some of you it doesn't matter. You were born rich and you're going to stay rich. But here's my advice to the rest of you: Take dead aim on the rich boys. Get them in the crosshairs and take them down. Just remember, they can buy anything but they can't buy backbone. Don't let them forget it. Thank you.Herman Blume - Rushmore

    Thanks guys! This is going to be a bedroom setup. What budget speakers can I go with for the rears. Although, going budget, I would like the speakers to sound great with no popping. I will power these with a NAD t743 50wpc.

    my vote would be for the monitor 30's, but if your budget allows -- poss two more 40's

    Not that I abuse my speakers, but will these speakers I have listed above give a decent theater effect as well as play music efficiently?

    You guys have been a great help.

    possibly the M10's, but they use a different tweeter than the monitor line and believe it or not, they're 4 ohm speaks (so you may want to consider that)

    other than that, the pair can be had for considerably cheaper than the M30's

    Definitely get some Monitor 30's. They have been onsale at Tweeter for $129/pair the last few months (called t20-e's). I have them as surrounds, they sound great, hold up well to loud volumes (no popping I've heard), look good, and are a great deal.
    Stereo Rig: Hales Revelation 3, Musical Fidelity CD-Pre 24, Forte Model 3 amp, Lexicon RT-10 SACD, MMF-5 w/speedbox, Forte Model 2 Phono Pre, Cardas Crosslink, APC H15, URC MX-950, Lovan Stand
    Bedroom: Samsung HPR-4252, Toshiba HD-A2, HK 3480, Signal Cable, AQ speaker cable, Totem Dreamcatchers, SVS PB10-NSD, URC MX-850
