Hey daddio, might have a perfect set of speakers here for you. They're Wharfedale Evo 30's ... for now They're nice speakers, but the problem is the tweeter they use is average at best. I'm going to replace it with something far better and totally redesign the crossover network. The cabinets are pretty cool too, well built and good looking with a teardrop shape - but one of them has a couple dings in it. So the plan is to fill the dings in with high bond filler, prepare it like a car and sand it all down, then lay an automotive gloss finish on 'em. The two colors I'm considering are a high pearl titanium silver, or Ferrari Red!
How would you feel about having some speakers in the house done in an automotive finish? If you like the idea, what color would you want?
That's actually a trend now in higher-end speakers ... talking 10,000+ a pair speakers. And I guarantee they'll sound fantastic after I work my magic

damn, silver all the way.... How much do you want for them? Is this a 5 speaker set or 7 or what? I'm still shopping for a decent receiver. Any suggestions? I think 7 speakers will be overkill for such a small room.

Not sure on price yet, I'll have to see how much the body shop charges to finish them ... but I'll offer them to you at whatever cost I have in them. Right now I just have the front two, but could easily make a center channel to match. For rears there are any number of good bookshelf speakers I can recommend ... or I could build you something for them as well. 7.1 would probably be too much for that room, since the rear surrounds in a 7.1 system are meant to be placed well behind the seating position.
As far as receivers go, they change so quickly that let's wait till the time comes to give any advice.
