Fellow sound nerds, I need your help. I'm upgrading my 5.1 system, and I am stuck on which rear speakers to get. Arriving next week are Revel F226BE (left/right) and C205 (center). I currently have a Rel S/812 sub as well. I don't really have any space in the rear, and so I need something small and on-wall. Revel's M8 SP2 speakers would have been perfect, but they aren't in production anymore, and the only black ones I could find are on eBay for far more than they're worth (currently listed for ~$800 per speaker!). Based on some reviews, the Monoprice Monolith Satellite speakers could have been an ok solution, but they aren't currently available either. Ideally, I want something that doesn't look too visually out of place with the Revels (e.g., I don't want sharp edge/square designs, like the Kef Q series). I have been considering the GoldenEar SuperSat 3 speakers. However, I can't find any objective data in the forums, and I worry that the different tweeter tech might sound out of place with the Revels... but maybe not? What do you folks think? Would the SuperSats be a decent selection, or do you have other small satellite speakers in mind that could pair well audibly and visually with the Revels? Here's my room layout for reference. The black "?" squares are placeholders for the rear speakers.
Thanks for your input!
