RADH Posted March 10, 2019 Share Posted March 10, 2019 (edited) Hi, I have a pretty small bedroom with a projector and a 2 channel setup and I found a sweet deal on a set of RP-150Ms $350 CAD or RP-160Ms for $450 CAD, and I was wondering if they are good for side surround considering how small my room is. Heres a link to my Room Setup Currently I just have a set of RP-150M as front speakers and my receiver is DENON X1500H ( I know my receiver is overkill but I got it on sale and I had plans to upgrade my setup later ) I enjoy these speakers a lot and I thought about getting a subwoofer for my next upgrade but honestly the speakers provide enough base in my room. I thought about getting another set of RP-150Ms and have em setup for side surround but I don't know if its a good idea because while I have a little bit more space on the left side of my bed, I have like a feet on the right. What do you guys think? would I benefit from another set of RP-150Ms or maybe I should forget about side surround for now and consider a subwoofer or a center channel? Any suggestion is much appreciated. Thank you, Hossein Edited March 10, 2019 by RADH Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cass99 Posted March 10, 2019 Share Posted March 10, 2019 hi i’d say if you’ve been wanting surround sound & can get a good deal on the rp-160m that match, have them as your fronts & move the 150m to the back for side/rear surround. you could also add a matching center & or sub, later on, if you’re wanting a 5.1 system. I have a set of 280f floorstander’s & i just pulled the trigger on a pair of 160m for my rears. goodluck hossein 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I might be wrong that's why I cant pull the trigger on them yet 😐 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cass99 Posted March 11, 2019 Share Posted March 11, 2019 hey hossein, you also can check into the rp-240s & rp-250s they both match your speakers & are true side surround bi-poles. also the rp-250c center is a match too, if u think about going with a center channel speaker instead. I have a set of the rp-250s’s & they’re great side surround speakers: in my opinion. good luck to you man Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
