I had literally no idea MTX made home speakers. They were a popular car audio brand in the 90’s and early 2000’s but to hell with buying anything of theirs for home use.
​
Compact speakers are easy. I have a very reasonably sized ( 9.7 x 14.2 x 5.4 in ) Cambridge SX-70 Center as seen here, that I would sell you for $100+shipping… but it is walnut. It sounds great, and is in perfect shape but I wanted something ported to better match my towers, so I’ve replaced it.
​
For Compact Bookshelves the Micca MB42x for $89 a pair get my vote.
Compact subwoofers are harder, as good extension and output in a ported design requires cabinet space. Your $200 budget could get a Dayton Sub-1500, but thats a large sub. Could also get a BIC F12… but again, these aren’t small speakers. To get any performance at the $200 mark… it’s going to be a big speaker.
​
As for the receiver, if you paid $250, I would return it and buy something from accessories4less and save the extra coin, or spend the same $250 and get a much better receiver.
