Need help for my HT,looking to upgrade my speakers

Hi folks,
I enjoy HT 70/30%, just bought a b&w HTM2 for my center, looking for surround suggestions as well.
Now using b&w 602's for left/right (would like to change those) , subwoofer is Paradigm seismic 110 (new sub), love the sub would like to keep.
Should I stay with b&w speakers or is there an alternative speaker that would work well with the htm2, I was thinking of the Paradigm studio monitors v5 but not sure how the whole thing fits. For now I'm using a Marantz AVR. Family room is approx 15x20 high ceilings.
Any input is appreciated
Thank you

hi knownothing,
I'm currently using the Marantz sr5004 but I am upgrading to the Marantz sr7005, btw it had a great review by Home Theater magazine.
the Marantz sr5004 handled my b&w lcr600 center and 602's with no problem. I'm Also looking at b&w 805 matrix.
I am using HDMI for both audio/video, I've been satisfied with digital sound so far, the sr7005 is rated at 125 wpc.
thanks

Hi Tls49,
First let me thank you for your informative thread.
From what I understand I should be looking for a different AVR if I decide to go with the 805's or better.
I enjoy my HT & music played in my family room mostly at (-15 db) with my current avr.
Now that you have clarified some of my questions, I need to decide wich way to go, I'm on my way to listen to the 686 and CM1's
Thanks again
