You can determine it by yourself on auditioning side by side between the bookshelf and floorstander of the same series. Personally, I would go with floorstanders if space is not an issue but it is most important that you choose a speaker that you feel sounds accurate and pleasing to you in your listening environment.

If the price is not much difference definitely will go for floorstand
But the quoted price for Zensor 5 or Zensor 7 triple the price of Zensor 1, so really need auditioning before make the decision.

Totally understand on the budget, so is best to invest in sub because HT cannot be without sub

lol if go for Floorstand, temporary use back my old pioneer 12 inch sub. Next only change the sub
Btw, floorstand zensor 5 vs 7, which 1 should go to match my Zensor Vokal? Is the Zensor 7 (7 inch woofer) make a big difference over Zensor 5 (5.25 inch)?

It does make a difference.

Hi, is it worth to spend 4k for center spk.tq

Depend on what you have for front to match it

Pair with B&W 683 S2 n Center B&W HTM61 S2 any commend.tq

HTM61 s2 is 4K?

Dali Zensor 5 should be good enough. Try to spend more on the sub but if budget is not a constrain then DZ 7 would be better of course. All LCR must be timbre matched. You can also consider Dynaudio speakers if budget allow.

Actually 4.2k but after 10% discount is around 3780 so do u think match my spk

Most probably will go for DZ 7 cause different by few hundreds only compare to DZ 5 if I chosen floorstand. Btw, since all my speaker can handle below 60Hz, should I set the crossover at 60Hz or 80Hz as recommended by THX?

I will think 20% discount will be ok to go. It will match the front

The setting depends on your sub as well. For myself I set it at 120hz

7" has different power requirement, which make the difference especially during play loud.

aventage can set each channel crossover
my pi0neer cannot

Actually i also bargain for 20% but cannot unless during sale, cannot wait so just buy n another 70ringgit for courier service. Nvm as long as happy n match should be fine. thanks bro.for the commend

cross over setting 120Hz setting on AVR or sub? If AVR, what's the reason?
I read article said if your AVR have dedicated setting for each channel, set as low as your speaker can handle. If only 1 setting for all channel, choose the highest usually surround speaker will be the bottle neck.

It's on AVR. The reason for this my SVS ultra can handle it. Having cross over overlapping certain range of freq is always better to ensure there is no loss of freq.

May I know, any 1 here have an experience comparing bookshelf speaker with Htib tower speaker. My intention is, i want to buy AVR and bookshelf speaker and subwoofer for the starting. I wonder if bookshelf speaker can't match Htib tower speaker. I assume bookshelf is more powerful than Htib tower speaker. The price of 1 pair of bookshelf speaker already can buy a whole new Htib.

I just want to make sure when I buy everything, the system will sound better than than my Htib especially for the fron speaker. Room size is an issue also. I afraid if i buy tower speaker, it will overkill because room size only 10x12x10. My prelim plan is going for bookshelf.
