Ive had my AV setup for around 3 years and am now looking for some smaller speakers to be less obtrusive in the living room (wife's idea!) as we have just had some building work done.
I currently have the following:
Mission 771e Fronts
Mission 77C1 centre
Mission 77DS rears
Yamaha YSTW-90 Sub
Connected to:
Yamaha RXV795aRDS Amp
Yamaha DVDS795
The other half want's Bose speakers as they are tiny, but ive listened to them and thought they were ok but not as good as my current setup. (The cheap ones sounded poor ,only the £1000 ones seemed acceptable to me).
Anyway, Ive always thought of Bose as not proper HiFi.
My other choice is the Mission FS2AV or the new (cheaper) FS1s but Ive yet to hear them so has anyone any advice on whether these will sound comparible to my current missions?
I may want to upgrade to 6.1 and beyond in the future and I think the FS1 prevents this. I also understand it is possible to add extra FS2 speakers to the set. Is this worth looking at?
Are there any alternatives I could look at? My budget is only around £500-£800 at the moment as the extension has cost a fortune and just bought a new car as well!
Thanks for any advice.
