Acoustic Energy Aelite Speakers 5.1 as seen here
I'm rearranging my home cinema room and would like to use the chimney breast to install a gas fire (low, modern). I need a centre speaker to embed in the wall above it so it needs to be fairly small depth and height wise although I've got plenty of width. I guess it also needs front firing ports as well if it's going to be in a recess/wall mounted.
My current surround speakers are pretty large but I'm happy with them, but there's no way the centre is going to fit, so I was thinking of replacing it with the Monitor Audio Apex A40, but I'm concerned about how well it will integrate with the other speakers. Budget doesn't really allow the full Apex set although it would be nice!
Anyone got any thoughts about this? Any other recommendations?
Cheers,
Ed
