Looking at downgrading the TV audio (mrs hates my current stereo setup due to the size) so what speakers should I be looking at?

I'm after fronts, rears and centre only, small form factor - less than 20cm on longest edge if possible. To be driven by a Cambridge Audio Azur 540R v3. Max spend for the five is £200.

I have been using the 9s for a while.. love the sound. The sub is the same throughout the range. You get 10% off if you subscribe to the newsletter

Taking away a man's speakers is just stripping away his masculinity.
Spend the £200 on a sub woofer and keep the speakers.

Excellent suggestion, Cheekymonkey888. The wife likes the look of them.

Cloudnine, yes. But on the plus side I get to stick them in the spare room/study, and I've got a nice Naim 62/110 combo winging its way to the house seeing as the Cambridge Audio thing is staying with the telly.

Have you looked on the Richer Sounds website?

They've got some decent looking Tannoy surround speakers for around £200:
