Default What would you recommened for my back surrounds

I figure this won't break me but right at this moment iam not satisfied with my Adp-170s Paradigm

I would like it to be a match for my front M-5si (Mirage) iam also looking for the same tweeter (PTH pure titananium hybrid dome with cloth suspension) i also would like it go at least 100rms or higher

My goal is to have mirage all around and i find alote of them on E-bay so iam thinking what the hell.I might as well grab one I just want the best pair for me ?

Any Suggestions are welcome

Get a pair of PSB Image S50 bipolar speakers and live happily ever after.

I have a pair and I really like them. You know that I am a big fan of Canadian speakers, particularly PSB.

Hey Ozzman, as you see in my sig I run Paradigms all around and would like to make a suggestion about you ADPs - I also found that after I purchased the ADPs to use for rears I was just not satisfied with the surround experience there just seemed to be something missing. While on some forum, not sure which now, it was suggested that I move the ADPs to be side surrounds and get some direct speakers for the rear - so I picked up a pair of Atoms and moved them to the rear surround position w the ADPs as side rear and voila that is what was missing. Just something for you to try before you dump the ADPs completely

I see you have the 3800 maybe you can try the above or use the speaker for the ambiance speakers - that is a yamaha option is it not?

Anyways - just an idea from a local Canuck

Funny story but ill keep it short have Atoms V5 little while ago traded them in for My fronts in some cash.

I just looked at the PSB speakers you posted and there looking alot like what i have as Paradigm.Iam thinking get bookshelves Hook them and have them drop a bit over my head

I want all 3 front speakers to go Mirage.I have an opportunity i get a pair of Paradigms .Don't know the Model " but its from the Reference Line.But they are older .There two towers with two speakers in each. (I would use them for rears)They look like these speaker,Just missing a woofer on each
http://images.google.ca/imgres?imgur...__212%26sa%3DG


2 month back i was going to replace My backs S to PSB for the simply fact that my rears are PSB.

Are you with me so far.I think having all Mirage from the same era would might be my best bet.Iam a little shaky with this.All iam trying to do is ,too do this right once and for all.
But i will tell you if i go a different brand then my fronts for my rears and b.Surround it would make my life alote easier(but will i be truly happy)

I know for sure you know what iam talking about Big Daddy.
You know what i want in a center (MC-SI-Mc-2) and i thought in the back of my head a pair of M-7si's would make great rears or speakers close to them.I have a couple of options here,I just don't really know what is the best route

Honestly What would you do for my Rears and Back Surround.Remember iam asking what you would do if you had my speaker setup and weren't going to give up your Front Mirages

I remember a time back that you told me to hold on to the ADPs until i got a bigger place.

I Will say i love my rears but iam willing to get paradigm rears.I could even if i wanted to,Grab them and keep them here for a couple of days but i think the PSBs are going to show them up.They got great low range and the highs on them,There are sweet

You know just typing this in makes me realise that i really don't know which direction i want to take for the rears and back

I seriously need a game plain or iam going to end up with something stuipid and try to convince myself that it's great
