Afternoon all!

My audio kit for our main 65" TV is currently Jamo A102 5.1 kit (paired with a Sony STR-DH800).
Had them for around 9 years and they've been great and can't fault them for what I wanted them for.
However, now my speaker requirements have changed a bit and would now like decent fronts for music and a better center as the TV is in a much bigger open room.

I'm happy with the receiver, sub and rears and don't particularly feel they need to be changed yet.

I've got my eyes on the Q Acoustics 3050 / 3050i floor standers and a 3090C / 3090ci for the center whilst keeping the sub and rear speakers for now. They're within budget and aesthetically will suit the decor.
Not sure if the "i" versions will be worth the extra as I expect either will be a considerable upgrade to what I have.
I use primarily Netflix and Spotify.
Will these Q Acoustics suit the receiver OK or any reason not to go down this route?

Thanks for the info.
This is all like pc upgrades really isn't it? May well get a bottle neck somewhere when only upgrading certain parts at a time.

Can only try it I suppose and faff about with positioning as that's reasonably flexible.
If it's a noticeable improvement then it will keep me happy for a while!

Was initially looking at spunking out on the whole 3050i 5.1 kit but then reigned it in a bit to do the L/C/R speakers only.
I don't find the sub that bad TBH, it's what you relate to really. Nobody I know has a decent set up to compare to so it's all I know!
To you or others reading this it might sound truly woeful! :D
