Unfortunately I won’t have them on stands. The surrounding furniture isn’t very high either, so I can’t go much bigger than the B-200 size. It’s a really odd setup, pretty tough to describe. I appreciate the help though!

Thanks, I will plan to get a subwoofer, looking at something like a R-12SW. Seems to be about the right size to fit in the area up near the projector screen. I may still swap out two of the front speakers, but I'll stay in series with some B-200s instead of the B-100s. The second set of B-100s I might put in as rear placement as environmental, though they won't be perfectly aligned for the main listening area.

Hi all, I’m working on a very odd setup, basically a wife-approved HT setup with extremely minimal impact; no towers, a center and bookshelf speakers only, and as small as possible. No stand, wall, or ceiling installations. So far I have a C-200 center channel with 4 B-100s on the way. I was considering sending two of the B-100s back and instead putting slightly larger speakers on the front, something like R-51Ms. I’m not certain if that’s worth doing particularly. There isn’t a lot of detail of what is different between the B-100s and the R-51Ms, they appear to be about the same price, but the R-51 is larger so in theory it should produce more mid range sound than the B-100s. I also don’t know if it’s a good idea to mix and match the various speaker “families”, or if they’re intended to be used together for the best results. The watching area is a relatively small space, but it’s part of a large space that’s pretty well covered by Sonos. I just wanted a hardwired HT setup within the media section. Given the visual restrictions, it’s difficult to pull off though.
