I am sorry!! Bad info. My surrounds are actually khw5 not rcw. The fronts in question are kg 4.2 Also, should I set my speakers to large or small, and what should the subs crossover be? Right now, I have all set to small with the crossover at 80. I do watch a lot of movies and hd with this system. Thanks and sorry for the confusion!

I have the following klipsch floorstanding speakers that I purchased in 1992. http://www.klipsch.com/product/product.aspx?cid=135&section=specs I am using them as my front speakers in my home theatre. Are these effective? I will list my others speakers below. Center - SC3 Surrounds - RCW5 Sub - ksw12 Thanks!

Thanks guys! I do have another question. If you stretch the picture is this the same result as the full screen dvds in which you lose part of the picture? While all programming might not be in Dolby Digital, will the the ones that aren't be in pro logic? Or will this improve, albiet slightly? What gives you the best picture, the stretch or 4:3 with the black bars? I know this is probably subjective, I am curious. Thanks again!

I am in the process of purchasing a new widescreen HD ready television. Along with that I have to get a new directv hd receiver. I have a very nice surround system that I have built piece by piece over the years. All Klipschs of course, and a Sony str-995. the system sounds great but I only get pro logic quality audio from the satellite since the receiver I am using is so old. To my need for info: Once I upgrade my TV and Directv receiver, will all programs be in Dolby Digital, or just the ones that are high def? My old receiver just had the white/yellow/red conncections where the new receiver will have optical and component hookups. Also what about picture quality in regular satellite programming, will that improve with 16.9? Will all programs be in widescreen, or will I have to watch the big black bars on the sides for several programs? I know the HD channels/broadcasts will be greatly improved, but I am confused as to the benefit of the new technology with regular digital programming. I am looking at the new Samsung DLP hd2 50", or the Sony LCD rear projection 42". Any help would be appreciated!
