Speaker Suggestions/Opinions

[BrendonR]

Hi Folks,

Hopefully, after christmas morning, I'll be running a new receiver (Yamaha HTR6160.
high current, 6ohm, 95w/channel, 7.2channels (running a 5.1 for now - possible upgrade later on).

Now I HAVE speakers (6/7 year old JVC HTiB speakers) and a subwoofer. The only thing I know of them are that they're 8ohm, don't remember the wattage. I was planning on running these until more $$$ is scrounged up (or a good boxing day sale).

Can anybody drop their opinions on small/smallish "decor" [read: fiance doesn't think they're big and ugly (ala my previously desired Monitor 60s)] friendly?

I've been looking @ Polk RM10s w/ 10" polk sub

or Polk audio has a deal on at the moment - spend $500 get a free subwoofer

What about RM85s w/ the PSW10 Sub?

Budget is around $500 or so for the whole kit-and-kaboodle (5.1). Any and all recomendations would be greatly appreciated.
