Default Speaker recommendation

Currently running a 5.1 setup using Polk tseries speakers, and a Yamaha v379 received. Just casually wondering if I have money burning a hole in my pocket and wanted to upgrade somewhere, where would be best? Fronts ? Center?

I'm more than happy it sounds great, but I'm always open to improvement

There are speakers that cost from hundreds to thousands of dollars, and many brands to choose from. It all depends on your budget, and what you are willing to spend. Speakers doesn't produce good sound by themselves! A person must have a good quality receiver as well.

I had a 5.1 running, and I just grabbed myself a pair of the new SVS Prime Elevation speakers. https://www.svsound.com/products/prime-elevation

They're very nice, I'm currently using them as front heights, and in a smaller room like mine, the front heights have done more for my listening experience than rear surrounds would.

I'm running a full SVS system, with Prime Towers and a SB-2000 subwoofer and I'm very happy with it. I'd recommend them if you wanted to spend a little money and upgrade any of your speakers, but adding a pair of those new Elevation speakers was a great addition for my own home theater.

I upgraded from the Polk Monitor II line to the SVS Prime line and I love the way they sound. I was also happy with the Polks, but after around 5 years, I wanted a change. The clarity is more than I could have hoped for.
