  1. Unfortunately the Quintet line doesn't get much attention on here. How big of a space are you trying to fill with sound? I have the QII's with the KSW10 and I like them. I have a small family room(14x10) and they work just fine for music and movies. I will admit that my next upgrade will be to the Cinema 10's. I have heard them and they do sound very good.
  2. That is very true. I really like my Quintets. They fit my application perfectly and for a small speaker the system performs the home theather duties perfectly for me. Oh and the size was what got me the ok from my wife.
  3. I have all four of my Quintets wall mounted and they have not moved. Use the following directions to fix your problem. 1. Loosen the allen screws first. 2 Using an open end wrench loosen the nut under the rubber gromet/cover. 3. Adjust the speaker to the desired direction. 4 Tighten the nut with the open end wrench. 5. Snug up the allen screws (DO NOT over tighten) you can strip the heads easily. FYI...I have 4 stands for the Quintet II's that I have to get rid of.
  4. Thanks. I didn't think the sound would be quite right. You just confirmed it.
  5. I was asked a question today about using surround speakers as mains. Would surrounds be good as mains. The person asked because he will use his system for movies only. I told him that I would have to get some expert opinion on the subject. His socalled systemm would be Synergy 4-S3's and 1-C3. Thanks for the help
  6. If you have the space go with the SLX5.1 set-up. I have a Quintet II set-up. Due to livingroom restrictions. I like the SLX speakers. When I get an LCD flat panel tv I will be adding 2 SLX's for the fronts. As for the receiver bigger is ALWAYS better! Just my $.02
  7. I have the Quintet II's due to space restrictions. If you are like me and have space restrictions go with the Cinema 10 set-up. That is going to be my next upgrade. The sound is very good. Oh and go with an HK receiver. I have the AVR120 does just fine.
  8. Partial lyrics are "Ladies and Gentleman" and "Do you want it, do you need it"

  12. I hooked up a Linksys router (I use Verizon DSL) to my main computer and when I added my second PC it worked fine for 2 days now the eithernet ligth on the modem box flashes and Internet explorer works irradicaly, also the light for the second PC on the router box flahes. When I unplug the second PC both the modem and router box lights donot flash. Any help would be appreciated. Smokem
  13. I have a KSW-10. And the back has speaker input terminals, the same connections on the speakers black and red screw type connections. I was wondering what they were for?
  14. This may be a basic question but I have to know. What are they for? Could I add 2 more speakers off of the sub? How would I go about using them? Are they worth using? Thanks
  15. You can get the brackets for the Quintet III's from Omnimount. I have 4-Omnimount Satellite speaker stands for the Quintet II's. I have to get rid of them, asking $100.00 for the four of them. I have all the parts that came with them.
  16. For Sale: I have 4 omnimount stands that I used for my Quintet 2 series speakers. What kind of bracket is required for Quintet 3 series? I am looking to get $100 for them.
  17. I am looking for a 37" or larger Flat Panel LCD. I am leaning towards Samsung. Is there any other brand worth looking into?
  18. Which brands make better use of the technology.For example I was told that for Large screen projection TV's to go with Mitsubishi. What brands do better with the technology? I will be buy a new TV in the next few weeks so I was wondering which brands do better with certain technologies. What about Plasma, LCD, CRT , Rear Projection Projectors. Thanks for the help.
  19. I have a 5.1 set up and was wondering how I could add 2 more speakers to my current set up with out going to a 7.1 receiver. My mains and surrounds are SB-2's and I want to add 2 more SB-2's to fill the room. Is this possible?
