For a full sized bookshelf speaker, something like this is what you need: https://a.co/d/00prnhO9

Yes, I will likely try both evo express and evo Acustix with each saved to a different preset. The svs sub has auto EQ which i used after doing the manual adjustments to the speaker size and changing the crossover. It currently sounds good to me but I don't have a lot to compare it to.

I think it'll sound much better though once I run evo express which will hopefully better adjust my two different subs.
My favorite thing for comparison without more scientific A/B/X testing: pick a song you love and have played on repeat and feel like you know every bit of, something you've heard a lot and in different conditions (speakers, headphones, sing-yelling along to car radio, transit, maybe even live). If you've got a CD quality source (or better) you're already testing your hearing and the room more than the quality of all but the most bargain basement equipment these days. Any nuance or unexpected dynamics you pick up in a favorite piece of music is the speakers delivering more of what you're actually trying to pay for. That's worth more than a few % on some chart piled with numbers.

That's great if you're just buying a stereo pair for 2 channel music listening. Not as useful if you're buying a whole surround sound setup that will mainly be used for movies. Why not? Because during movies/TV it's the CENTER speaker that's carrying most of the output (60-80%) and 99% of the dialogue, so the quality of the CENTER is the single most critical factor in how much you enjoy your system. Problem is, most audio shops including Best Buy don't have center speakers available to audition alone, only stereo pairs. Which is one of the main reasons there's no replacement for an IN-HOME audition, using the many liberal return policies we are blessed with here in the US. There are lots of decent to great tower and bookshelf pairs that come with mediocre or lousy "matching" center speakers that will severely hamper the end user's HT experience, unfortunately.

Finally decided to pull the trigger for fun. I already have a set of the RC-70s, and two pairs of the RC-10s from back in 2013.
I can not say I really needed the extra set, but will be fun to compare.

Just check back in a week or so, it'll probably be renewed again. Seems to be happening again and again with this deal.

Please tell us what you think!

Haven't pulled the trigger yet, but this looks to be the best bang for the buck speaker set atm.

That it is, by far. I'd grab it while you can...even with all the shipping damage issues that other folks are reporting. Especially given today's tariff-hyperinflated market.

You'll need a surround sound receiver (AVR)---you'll connect all your video sources to the receiver, which will feed the video to your TV while powering these speakers. You'll probably want a subwoofer too if you watch a lot of action movies and want to FEEL all the deep bass effects (rumbles, crashes, etc.) which produce half of the visceral impact of the viewing experience. I'd buy a used receiver given today's crazy tariff inflation ($100-200 for a 5 year old Yamaha, Onkyo, Denon, Pioneer, etc vs $600 and up for a brand new one) and for the sub, at minimum a $340 RSL 10e (google it).

Should I jump on this deal or stick with my old school Infinity SM 155 speakers? For music only. I don't need surround or 5.1. ?? Would they sound better than my SM 155's for album and CD listening?

For music listening I'd just buy a pair of towers or a pair of bookshelves with a starter sub to fill in the low end, but get it from someplace with an easy return policy because user preferences are much harder to predict with music listening than with simple HT use. What's your budget max? Also: what genres of music do you mainly listen to? How loud do you listen? How far away from the speakers do you sit?
