I have looked around for used good quality small speakers. I have run into a lot of BS so far, and done a lot of running around to no avail. Since the speakers aren't for music, I am not being as picky as usual, but the 60's sounded just fine to me, so hoping the 40's with similar drivers will be fine too.Besides getting the good music speakers out of this system for reassignment, the other (main) reason for changing the HT speakers is I want a matching sound-wise center (CC in this case). That has limited my used choices (i.e. need two pairs in effect) so dealing is tricky. I am a recent convert to the "center matches the fronts" thing, I do notice the difference/improvement very much compared to when the center is "mismatched". In fact, I think a mismatched center is worse than no center in some ways. This is at friends' houses who have cheap matching front/center speakers, sounds better than with my good fronts and mismatched center as far as a "sonic front" goes. I always intuitively knew this was the way to do it, and since I have invested a fair amount in this system already, it's time to do the speakers. BTW, though Paradigms have quite set prices, they are very reasonably priced in Canada compared to imports, possibly excepting Magnepan.
