Diss

As you can see in my sig, I had to do some substitutes due to lack of availabilty. I know I did good on the RF 5's for the price. But im not sure about the RC 3II, I've looked at the specs vs the RC 35 and it looks like a better speaker, but im not a audio geniues. Did I make adecent decision on the substitutes?

I orderd it all from hooked on tronics http://www.hookedontronics.com/index.jsp There Klipsch subs are priced well I thought, the rest is a little higher than normal. Thanks

Thanks for the input guys, its really appreciated. One more ? , I browsed the archives and coundn't find anything specific, but how much power is required from the reciever to make this bad boy play at full potential? Will I need a amp or is my reciever fine? Also what kinda cables do you guys recommend for everything in my sig, monster cables, etc... That will be my setup by next friday, if all goes well with the shipping. Im so excited!!

LOL I so envy you, Thanks I placed my order tonight for my first set of Klipsch for the living room. That RSW 15 with the 35 should sound pretty nice when I watch LOTR agian just to hear it on my new setup. Thanks agian.

Thanks I found it for 134 more than the RSW12 so I figured it was prolly a no brainer for that kinda price anyways. Thanks

Im planing a new setup for the living room, Gonna go with the Reference 35 Line, and was wondering which sub will produce the best sounds for mainly movie's. I dont listen to much music, but like watching DVD's. I also was considering the RW 12 but wasnt sure if it would be enough for the action scenes in LOTR. Thanks

Does Klipsch offer any speaker stands for the RS-35 ? I was looking at one of the post here which linked to the www.Dolby.com , and they recommend that the surrounds face each other and are about 2'to 3' above the listeners' ear. I have end table at each end of the couch in the living room. That was was just gonna sit them on and face them forward. I measured the listening level and its 3' for me, I cant mount them on the wall cause of the thermostat on the left side of the couch is 5'. My second question is will they be ok if I just go ahead and let them sit on the end tables, facing forward or on the cornor of the end table agling at the listening positon, or will I be defeating there purpose? They will be about 13' apart. Thanks

I edited my post, it should have read "why didnt i go with the bigger speakers" I just want to be able to go loud and crisp. I want to be able to feel a car door shut in a movie. STuff like that.

Well I've come to one conclusion, and that is Im paranoid. Every since i posted here all I've been able to think about is getting the best system for the money. Then I go through all the specs on the speakers, and I keep asking my self is this gonna be what I want, and thinking maybe I should look at the next level speaker. I started at the synergy series SF-2's and am now thinking of RF-35 line, with at least a RW-12. As for a reciever I'm still not sure what would be the best buy (about $500). Im so paranoid that im gonna get a set of speaker,reciever, and gonna sit down to listen and enjoy it, and think Dang it why didn't I go with the bigger stuff . Cause its alot easier to save a little more now then, buy and have to save all over again to get the good stuff and repeat this whole process. Anyways Im still searching for good deals. And Thanks for everyone's replys and suggestions, there greatly appreciated.

ok since the synergy are ok speakers and the RF-15's that were suggested are a better line of speakers, would they get the job done. Anything has to be better than what I have, I currently have a Aiwa mini 5.1 system, it sounded good in the apartment but now it doesnt fill the room without distorting. If I go with the RF-15's what kinda reciever and im gonna be looking at. Like how much power out am i gonna need per channel, do i need a 100 W out since the speakers are 100w continuas? And are pioneer recievers good, a firiend told me that had bad soound? Thanks

Ok Im a newb when it comes to Home theater setup, I currently own a set of Klipsch promedia 2.1 for my pc, and the own. So i decided to go with Klipsch for the Living room. Im looking to spend about a $1000 and go to $1500 if really needed too. I need a receiver, and speakers. the listening position is about 14 feet from the tv and the front speakers will be about 13 feet a part. The surround speakers will also be 13 feet apart and 14 feet from the fronts, basically a square. I'm giving these dimensions so maybe someone can tell me if what im considering will fill the room. I want sound to feel like it blasting in my face, and I want to be able to feel the bass, in movies and stuff. I was considering the " KSW12 , SF-2 for the fronts, sc-1 for the center, and ss-1 for the surrounds. STill dont know what kind of reciever to buy. Keep in mind im new to this so correct me if im going in the wrong direction. And if im gonna need to take a loan out or im allready overpowering the room. Thanks
