Surround Speakers matchup with B&W 804 diamond

u571

Dear chings,

I am planning to upgrade my front and center speakers to B&W 804 diamond and HTM4 respectively (5.1 system with sofa against he wall).  I have a pair of Mirage OS3 as Presence speakers.  My amp now is Z7 and probably will add a power amp too later.  My SW is JL 113.  What should I use for surround to match up with the B&W front and center speakers?  Is MK SS150 a good choice?  My listening area is around 150 sq ft.  Many thanks in advance!

最好當然係B&W 8 系SURROUND...SS150一D 都唔平..我諗都要一萬1對..如果係咁我就揀返B&W..

    Thx Francis ching.  But I don't see any 8 series speakers dedicated for surround and the old DS3 series already stopped production?

Why not consider B&W DS3?
The B&W's and MK's quality of sound may be different.
