I currently have a 7.1 system consisting of 2 Triton Twos, Supercenter XL, 4 SS 50s, and a HSU VTF15H. What GE speakers should I use for the width and height channels? I thought about Triton Sevens for the width channels but then rethought this that this may be overkill. Now I'm thinking either 2 Aon 2's and 2 SS3's. Or 4 SS 3's.

The room is a dedicated hometheater with a 110" Dalite, Sony HW50ES, and powered by Marantz AV8801, MM8077, MM7055. The room has a 12 foot vaulted ceiling and is about 17" X 19". Any advice is appreciated.

Thanks.

Great system.

Depends on what fits, most popular is the SuperSat 3. Aon 2's or Invisa 650's are all good alternatives depending on, again, what fits. Aons would be the most full range of all those choices, although I don't think that matters for height and width channels.

Hope this helps.

Thanks. I decided to go with 4 SS3s with the SS3 floor stands. I have enough room to use Aons but I don't think I need the extended bass for width or height channels. I'll post how it sounds once I get it set up. Thanks again.

Satsam,
You are making us all jealous here, I bet that will be a killer sounding home theater when you get it done.
Enjoy and PLEASE write back and tell us how it turned out.
God Bless,
Wayne

Well, after much work pulling wires through walls and the attic (which I hired out), all is back in place. And it sounds great. More depth and expansive sound, of depending upon what is playing. I'm extremely pleased with outcome. I'll post pictures when I get a chance. Thanks for the advice.
