I am looking for new towers and a center channel for my 7.1 HT which is used exclusively for movies. I have a Onkyo 804 receiver and a Klipsch Synergy 10" subwoofer. My room is 15'x 16' x 8'.
My current towers are Sony SS-MF550H with specs of: Bass Driver(s) Yes (Enhanced H.O.P. Cone) Nano FineŽ Balanced Dome Tweeter Yes 8" Improved H.O.P. Cone Bass Driver 3 1/4" Improved H.O.P. Cone Mid Driver 1" Nano-FineŽ Balanced Dome Tweeter : Speaker Frequency Response 45Hz - 50kHz Impedance 8 Ohms Mid Range Size(s) 3" (8 cm) Power Requirements (Subwoofer) 40 - 50,000 Hz Sensitivity 88 dB My center channel is a Sony SS-CN5000 with specs of: Bass Driver(s) Yes (Enhanced HOP Dual 5 1/4" Drivers with 1" Tweeter) Nano FineŽ Balanced Dome Tweeter Yes (rated to 50 kHz) Speaker Frequency Response 85 - 50,000 Hz Impedance 8 Ohms Sensitivity 89 dB Tweeter Size 1" (2.5 cm) Woofer Size(s) 5 1/4" (13cm) x 2 I'm considering replacing the towers with Polk Monitor 50s with specs of: Driver Units Mid/Woofer: 2 - 5-1/4" Diameter (13.34cm), Dynamic Balance Bi-laminate composite cone driver, magnetically shielded Tweeter: 1 - 1" Diameter (2.54cm), Dynamic Balance Silk/polymer composite dome, magnetically shielded Power Rating 20 - 150 w/channel Frequency Response 42Hz - 25kHz Nominal Impedance 8 ohms Sensitivity 89 dB A polk center channel CS2 with specs of: Driver Units Mid/Woofer: 2 - 6.5" Diameter, Dynamic Balance Bi-laminate composite cone drivers, magnetically shielded Tweeter: 1 - 1" Diameter, Dynamic Balance Silk/polymer composite dome, magnetically shielded Power Rating 20 - 175 w/channel Frequency Response 55Hz - 25kHz Nominal Impedance 8 ohms Sensitivity 90 dB My questions are: 1. Are my Sony 3 way speakers better than the Polk 2 way speakers? 2. If the Polk speakers are better, is it a significant difference? 3. Do I have a better choice for towers (not bookshelf speakers) and a center channel than the Polks in the same price range ($400 - $500) ? I do like the boominess of the Klipsch subwoofer. Thank you for your time and thoughts. |
