Thanks for the advice. Perhaps I've got untrained ears, but when I ran my test tone, and with the help of a SLP meter, the KLF C7 sounds great as a center between the two Cornwalls. I've currently got a couple of small polks for my rear surrounds, and have to crank the gain way up to even them out with the Cornwalls. Any suggestions on a good, but small Klipsch that would do the job adequately for the rears? Thanks

You can find them on ebay for around $450 + shipping. They match well with the CW's and the klf-c7. ---------------- I'm actually looking for something smaller that can be ceiling mounted. I'm new to home theater-for rears, is it enough just to match the sensitivity of the front speakers, or is it important to have tonal match as well? Any suggestions on smaller klipsch speakers that might fit the bill? Thanks Greg

I'm looking for small rear speakers to match my Cornwalls and KLF center. I was thinking something in the RS series, either new or used. Anyone have any experience with this type of setup? Greg

According to the owner, the pilot 225 is an old solid state. Greg

I've got a KLFC7 as a match for my Cornwalls. You can tell a slight timber difference when setting them up with a test tone, but I swear I don't hear it during movies. Blue book pricing on these is about $300. Greg

The HK is SS. The Scott is a 222C Greg

Thanks for all of the help and advice on matching an amp to my Cornwalls (to replace my Onkyo AV receiver) Based on the input, I decided to look for a Scott 222, or a Harmon Kardon 730 if I couldn't find the Scott. One of each showed up on E-bay- given my luck on E-bay, I bid on both, expecting to get one of the two if I was lucky. You guessed it, got em both- $100 for the HK, and $178 for the Scott. Now I've got to convince my wife to go visit her sister while I wait for the UPS man. Thanks again for the help.

Anyone know anything about the Pilot 225? Greg

Thanks for all of the replies. In response to a couple of the questions- I didn't inherit the cornwalls- but I did get a great deal on them 15 years ago- they came out of Chet Atkins house in Nashville Pure music off of DVDs sounds harsh as well- no real difference compared to CDs I am looking for a 2 channel only amp and to seperate it from the home theater set up. In reading over the numerous posts, I'm leaning towards tubes. I've got my eye on a Dynaco SCA-35- I would like to keep my investment down- any other suggestions on good tube "starter" amps? Thanks again for the help

but I know what I like. I recently replaced a very old Yamaha receiver with a new Onkyo as part of my home theater, with Cornwalls up front. The system sounds great as a theater set up, but sounds very harsh when playing music cds in a two channel mode. The old 30 watt Yamaha sounded a lot better (warmer?). Any thoughts on what might be a good amplifier to match my speakers? Nothing too esoteric. Thanks for any help.

I have Cornwalls up front, with a KLF-c7 center and am looking for something small that can be ceiling mounted for the rears. I've looked at RS-3 and RS-7s, What about the smaller KGs? Any advice? Thanks
