Testimonial: "Maybe you could advise me again. Im looking either to get another pair of the same speakers (four in every corner) or a pair of floor speakers."
Wow that's allot to ask of only 40 watts,the more speakers the quieter they'll all be.By adding 2 more speakers you'll only have 20watts per channel.Speaker selection is important too.A 4ohm speaker is louder than an 8ohm one,but less ohms translates into more noise earlier on the volume dial.The high ohm speakers are quieter but they are a cleaner sound.If you want fidelity and more volume or sound you'll need more watts.You can't really do much with your system being under powered.And high volume levels cause distortion which causes speaker failure.The dial may go up to 100 but how high can you really turn it up before the clarity gives way to noise?Your system is designed for a small room that doesn't need much volume.A living room needs more watts to fill the room with sound,maybe 100 watts a channel.A 5.1 system would have 100 watts per channel or 100watts X 5=500watts total.So you see,40watts just doesn't leave much room for improvement.
My daughter just turned 16 and she wanted a better stereo for her room.I bought her a 400 watt system.100 X 2 speakers and 200 X 1 Subwoofer.WAY more than she needed for her room,with the door closed she can knock pictures off the walls.
I sure hope this helps you out?
