I have a 400 watt Yamaha receiver currently hooked up to a basic center-channel speaker and some 20ish-year-old Pioneer speakers (as front speakers). I'm looking to replace the front speakers with new towers. I live in a small garage apartment with hardwood floors so sound tends to reverberate nicely through the room, which is roughly 15' x 22'.
My budget is fairly limited, therefore the really nice stuff isn't an option. I did find a pair of 3-way Sony towers yesterday at Best Buy that were $160 for the pair. Each had an 8" sub along with a mid and a tweeter. Sounded pretty full, sexy to me. Since I can't afford to buy a sub right now can anyone let me know if these speakers would be decent for what I need?
