Surround speakers


any suggestions on surround speakers for under 200 or close to that? Preferably dipole???

You really should try and purchase surround speakers that are timbre matched to your main speakers and centre channel. This will almost always mean buying surround speakers from the same manufacturer as your main speakers using some of the same drivers as your main speakers. If you don't do this you will most likely end up getting an inconsistent sound when listening to 5.1 soundtracks and especially with hi-rez 5.1 music recordings.
I see a used pair of Paradigm ADP-150 Dipoles here for $200

I can also recommend Definitive Technology and NHT if you can go up a little in price, but I don't see any dipoles here.

I also see a pair of Elan thp650ss dipoles in your price range, however I don't know anything about them, except they're listed as new.

I don't know about dipoles, but you can find KEF Q series monitors, very nice ones, here on the 'Gon, for just under $200. I have been using Q15.2 for surrounds for 5-6 years now, and they haven't disappointed me yet. They have matched well with the two different speakers I have used for mains, too. Can't go wrong with them, IHO.

Good luck,
