My speakers have only one pair of connections, so I can't bi-amp. I think
I
will buy a subwoofer with at least an 8 inch unit - I reckon not much over
£100 if I shop around. Then again, I could go for the full 5.1 surround
sound to go with my To****ba 32" television. Are wireless back speakers
any
good, or will I have to lift floorboards yet again?
