For approximately $170 plus the cost of wood and a few other parts, you can build yourself a very good set of left and right surround speakers. These speakers use a forward firing 5 inch woofer and two tweeters firing in a bi-pole configuration towards the side at a 45 degree angle. These speakers will work best mounted to the wall at approximately 1 meter above ear level, and approximately 10 degrees behind your optimal seating position.
