5.1 under 4k?


I'm looking to upgrade my speakers and sub and hopefully stay under $4,500. I'm using a Marantz sr7007 and my room size is 10x20x12. Any suggestions on a used purchase? new?

Thanks in advance

I'm currently using polk audio rtia3, csia4, rm8s, & dwspro440 sub. I do not plan on adding a external amp any time soon but it is in the back of my mind.

I'm currently 30 day trialing a set of ascend acoustics siera-1s, center with nrt upgrads, htm-200s for surrounds all on 24" stands and lv12r sub. The system sounds great but I cant help but feel its lacking something.

Thanks in advance for the help.
I see a lot of advertisements for the svs ultra towers on the intranet. What are you opinions?

Worth the $3600 for the set?
Forgive the newbie question. Since the sr7007 can amplify 2 channels can I get away with purchasing a 3 channel amp to improve the overall performance of my system? I hooked up the rythmik LV12R last night and it sound pretty nice. Still doing some testing.

Since the RX1s have a recommended amp of 25-80w would spending money on a 200w amp be beneficial?

Thanks for all the information and help.
Based on some advice here I traveled an hour to listen to some Monitor Audio silver series speakers. I loved what I heard and ended up taking some speakers home.

I purchased a pair of rx8s, gx150, and a pair of rx1s for surround. I cound not justify the $1200 or afford for that matter for the sub. Can anyone recommend a good sub to match this system?
How do I tone down an amp to not damage the newly purchased speakers? I'm considering purchasing an anthem mca-30 for the front 3 and let the receiver power the surrounds. Opinions?

Thanks again
