I'm still on my hunt for bookshelfs to replace my current side surrounds. I'm looking for direct speakers that sound great with multichannel music as well as movies.

I'm running some Aperion 532's now, they sound ok for music and movies but just don't have the umph for a large room.

I guess what I'm looking for is a speaker that can fill a room like the QS8's but keep the sound direct for music.
There is nowhere in my area where I can do any listening comparisons, so I'll rely on your guys knowledge and experience.

Obviously I'd like the best bang for the buck, but I also want some great speakers whether they are Axiom, Revel, Onix. or any of the many brands out there.

Any advice is much appreciated. I'll try and post some pictures of my setup in the next few days. Thanks
