Bipolars or Bookshelfs for surrounds?

Thebug · 21 May 2008 at 08:54

Ok just got myself some Mordaunt Short 906i's as front speakers a 905i centre and a 309i sub, but cant decide on the rears.

So my question is what would be better some bipolar's or bookshelf's on stands? And whats better about them.

Thanks

bipolar's are better they bounce the sound around the room more.

Yeah bi-polars are designed as surrounds and are generally better, however they don't suit all rooms/positions as far as i am aware so it might be worth investigating further.

My room looks like the pic below - how can you tell if they would work ok?
