TLDR:
- I need a speaker setup for music, home theater, etc...
- preferably 5.1
- Absolute max is $550
- price does not include receiver, I already have one
- need mounts for only 2 of the speakers
- This is what I have right now - https://pcpartpicker.com/user/MichealJoeden/saved/ttwyXL
- please use B&H, Amazon, or Newegg
I am parting out a home theater system for my parents' living room. It is not a large room, but since it is open to the rest of the house it will likely serve as a music system that needs to be loud enough to be heard from everywhere. I swayed them away from complete systems, because they seemed to be lacking in speaker quality for the price point we were looking into. The front speakers can be placed on the media center, so they do not need a mount, but the rear speakers have no place to sit, so the budget must include mounts, as well as enough speaker wire to reach everything. Length is not a concern, just the quality, gauge, and insulation for an attic. Our budget is $500 USD, but $550 would be accepted including mounts and wire. No receiver is needed, since we already have one capable of 5.1. Here is the one that I already did, I am not sure if these are the best speakers for our application, but from research this is what I could scrounge together. https://pcpartpicker.com/user/MichealJoeden/saved/ttwyXL https://pastebin.com/RwGr9xHs
