Am I able to mix in 2 small speakers like bose or something along those lines.. I'm open to suggestions. |

New member Username: SkiiermikePost Number: 5 Registered: Mar-10 | thanks for the advice. I was worried at first about mixing the speakers. Will that still be ok? I would like to keep them as small as possible as I dont want them to stand out. I was thinking of having them for the center of the room on the side walls. |

Silver Member Username: Vm8444Post Number: 149 Registered: Aug-05 | how are about finding just 2 of these mike in black on side walls with no base you can email kef for a local dealer to special order a pair in your area http://www.kef.com/gb/SurroundSound/kht/3005SEW and about mixing speakers.... front speakers are much more important but at least these are still in the family. front timber matching along front walls is really important but since your going 7.1 I would see if you like the way these look cause they would blend in nicely. vm |
