Thanks Venkat for such a detailed and clear response. Surely found it helpful. Thanks to all the others as well.
I am going through with a number of auditions and getting to know something new each time. The latest is that, I am moving away from sub/ sat and considering FS included combinations. Though I was willing to go with some of the best sub/sat like the KEF 3005SE or the B & W MT 20, they were not up to the mark with simple 2.1 stereo music. They were brilliant for movies, but sounded very OK for music.
In the FS systems, for the Front L & R, I am now considering B & W 684, KEF IQ5 and Jamo C60. I heard the Wharfdale 9.5, but felt that it lacked refinement. Any other I should add to the list? Just as an update, I am more or less decided on the Onkyo 705 as the AVR.
Thanks for all your comments
