Default Need Some Suggestions

I have a really small room and i want to get an average audio system i have a 5 speaker surround sound in my room right now but it's way to powerful. Is there any good 2 speak 1 sub systems out there i can get, i also was looking at the sound bars too. Anyone have any suggestions?

I suggest going Left/Right/Center.... if it's "too powerful" the sub is probably the last speaker you'd want to add.... the center channel will provide more intelligible dialogue.... I'd go this route...

if there is nothing wrong with your current surround system, just disconnect the sub, and turn up the level on your center, and keep the volume lower

dont unplug the sub. the sub throws alot of sound that you want when watching movies. what exactly do you mean by "too powerful"? too loud? just dont turn it up as loud then...

My room is not big enough to support a 5 speaker surround system, so the sound is kinda unleveled i'm just looking for an average 2 speak 1 sub speaker system or a sound bar that would fit better in my room, nothing to powerful.

Define too small My room is around 16'x14'. I'm just estimating too. I don't think there is too small for surround sound.
