It is still August, if the 9.1s have yet to be received, or can be returned.... speaking from first hand experience here :)

Dan, for the money and far less heartache, get a hold of a pair of Elac Debut B6 speakers. For the price <$300 what Andrew Jones has managed to accomplish is .... words escape me. They punch above their weight and having had Wharfedale 9.1's in my flat in London, they were OK, but nothing to write home about. Before I left the country to return to the States, I left them with a friend of mine over there.
