Upgrading Speakers

[Benchman]

Hi just last year I made my first jump into home theater and bought the klipsch hd 300 (which I love) and an onkyo ht-rc230. These have been great for me as a beginner but I think I'm ready to upgrade. I have been looking at the polk monitor60's as my front, a psw10 sub, monitor30's as my rears, and a cs20 as a center. Do you guys think this is a good upgrade and do you think my receiver can power these or not? Thanks

Do you want to take a little step up, and later take another little step or make a nice double step now.

I'll take the double step now

My post was a little short, if you take the double step, give a budget.

That is the real question, how much are you going to spend.

Myself and a few other will try to find the best upgrades for ya.

I have around $500 to spend right now

My advice would be to keep saving. If your current system (which you have no immediate complaints about) can sustain you for long enough, why not try & double that $500 (or more), rather than upgrading now and getting the upgrade itch again in a few months, but starting from scratch? Its not like your receiver is broken, or your watching movies through clock radio speakers.

And it might just be me, but saving up money and knowing where that money was going to be directed has helped me focus & stave off the upgrade bug. Use that time to read up & listen to as many speakers as possible...
