I've looked at several options: Focal, Bose, Energy, Polk. So far, I like the Focal Bird and Little bird speakers. I've got 14 ga. speaker wire in the walls of fairly large room with an HK A/V receiver. Any recommendations?


Answer
I would drop Bose from your list though (overpriced and mediocre at best).

Based on your suggestion of Focal speakers you appear to want some miniature speakers. That said, neither the bird nor little bird are surround speakers so I'm a little confused re your question specifying 5.1. You could cobble together a surround system but you would need an A/V receiver or surround amp to power them. See the 1st link for a review of the Focals. The other 2 links are to recommended surround systems ... some of which may meet your needs.

Personally I prefer speakers with a bit more size, and that opens up many possibilities. If you want small surround speakers Energy Take Classic is a reasonable choice, or consider Orb. If you want something bigger consider Klipsch, Distinctive Audio, Tannoy, B&W, Totem, ...

I would like to buy some speakers, what is the best brand or model to buy?

I want to buy a surround sound system that has a aux input. No price limit.


Answer
I would look at the Onkyo or Denon Recievers almost all have extra imputs..speakers goods buys (in the states any way) exist in the Energy Line and Aperion..other lines to look at include Paridgim speakers B& W...Sonus Faber...
In UK look at the Warferdale; Mordaunt Short and Tannoy brands of speakers.
