Welcome to posting on the forum!

Very nice, but I doubt the KPT-100 can't manage. (1) There's never that much surround content. (2) There are Cinema speakers after all, with 113 dB maximum output at 1m; that's only down 8 dB from Klipschorns. (3) I use them with Klipschorns and they manage for me! It is not a volume issue.It is a quality/clarity issue. They muddy the sound. They are nice little speakers and worked fine in my previous setup, but the QP setup is really amazing. Ok then. Did you do the crossover mod to remove the X-Curve?

About the opening of Edge of Tomorrow... True that! The family went "WHAT?"

La Scalas don't dig deep, but they do 80 Hz and above very well! Better than the Heresy! What would you use as center? surrounds? Three LS II in the front would be awesome.

Nice tv stand. Optical illusion. The La Scala is flush with the wall. The TV is on a wall bracket. But thanks!

I agree but then they are oddy half way in the room. I run the fronts set as large and can feel tons of air pushing out the ports. I have moved them 18" from the wall and they do sound better. I have heard from someone at Klipsch that plugging the ports will help tremendously. 6 to 8 inches might be enough? Also, if it were me... I'd lower the TV and center speaker a bit. They seem high to me. The speaker could cover part of the hole in the wall without any real downside. Nice seats! I'd try moving them forward about a foot. Too close to the back wall might not be optimal and it looks like you have a little space to give.

100 lbs is not so easy to move around... Two-person job for sure anyway.

P37-F 98 lbs (44.5kg) RF-7II 87.1lbs (39.5kg)

Klipschorns on the long wall then! They disappear into corners and hardly take up any space!

Nice Chad, but we gotta get you using some Klipsch.

Wow, this thread got forgotten...

Amazing Spiderman 2 (just okay, I guess). Seducing Dr Lwewis (exactly the same script, just translated, as the original version; good movie!)

You could DIY a Table Tuba if it's for music.

Picking the first track, defining dynamic range as peak minus rms average: SACD 11.88 dB SACD CD hydid layer: 9.4 dB 1985 CD version: 21.96 dB No contest... 1985 CD version is much better. I wonder why the SACD is so bad! Peaking at 0 dB is a good thing in that the noise floor is decreased as much as possible. I don't know how http://www.dynamicrange.de define dynamic range but the script http://dr14tmeter.scienceontheweb.net returns 20 for my CD track of the same (likely 1985 version as well)

Note that the two extra speakers going from 5.1 to 7.1 go to the rear. In a 5.1 system, the surrounds should be on your sides, not your rear.

Wouldn't it be something if you walked into a Magnolia or some other store and they had KPT speakers setup in a high-end HT? The slogan could be "Bring the real Cinema to you".

Help me here. Are we talking audibly better for BD movies, SACD's, DVDA's, or CD's? I know HDMI can pass high resolution audio and optical and digital coax can't but for redbook CD's, is there a noticeable difference? Bill For CDs, the biggest question is whether you have a higher quality CD player or receiver as far as doing the DAC decoding as well as if your CD player has a digital out. But then you see the occasional person using analog output from the CD (because it's better) into an AVR with speakers set to small.

One "l" my boy. Did you miss my sarcasm? Rhetor is looking for Heritage speakers for HT while at the same time saying the Chorus wasn't designed for HT and suggesting to use Reference instead.

You should reconsider your end game. The Heresy, La Scala, Belle and Klipschorn were not designed for HT, but for exemplary 2 channel listening. They are no good for HT.

Yeah, I am not so good at taking pictures of screens with content and there are lots of pictures of the W6000 on the net already. But there are pics with the screen down in my galley! https://community.klipsch.com/index.php?/gallery/album/23-psgs-ht-room/ :-)

Sorry to hear that. Yes, you can always rebuild...

The Optik TV (basically fiber-optic delivery) decoder sends out either 720p or 1080i, which was why i didn't think component would make a difference. I guess it's the extra D/A and A/D steps involved that degraded the image. Audio was run over toslink.
