KEF1005.2 @ £299 or Tannoy SFX5.1 at £199

I know neither of these are current, but I'm looking to replace my Yamaha YSP-1 sound bar to try and get better surround sound in my odd shaped lounge - I get next to no rear surround and limited left/right from the YSP due to firing across the narrow width of half of my long lounge/dining room (i.e. no right wall to bounce sound off and a window smack bang on the left wall)

I will possibly get a new receiver to upgrade my unused Yamaha of 4-5 yrs vintage (can't recall the number and not at home as I post), so my budget on speakers is limited - £300 tops. And they need to be small and discreet - one of the reasons I got rid of floorstanders etc before I got the YSP-1.

So, Tannoy or KEF (or maybe even Jamo)? Advice appreciated.

Thanks
