Over the last year I've been getting more into my home theater (aka living room) set up. I know I need to upgrade my LCR speakers and do a better job with locating them. Due to a non-ideal room setup I currently have my LCR speakers in the ceiling with angled monoprice speakers (roast me all you want), driven by a Denon x1700 and I recently got two SVS PB-1000s https://omegle.onl/ vshare .
My questions: (1) Is there a significant difference between bookshelf or in-wall speakers? Probably a loaded question given so many variables, especially budget, but "dollar for dollar" if you will. (2) Are there strong recommendations either way for speakers in the range of <$2k? I don't mind used and have been keeping my eye out for deals. (3) The KEF T101/301 and 301c caught my eye; would those be ok or are slim speakers not ideal?
I realize almost anything will be better than what I have now so hoping to get something I'm not going to want to change after 6 months.
