  1. I have a set of KLF-10 legends with a few speaker prongs broken from the grill. Are there pieces out there to buy so I can fuly attach my grills at all 6 prongs or will I need a whole new grill? Furthermore, One of the rubber grommets that accepts the prongs is damaged. Can those be ordered as well? If so where can I find all these parts and how much are they? Thanks.
  2. I found a Denon AVR-5700 when I first set up. It hasn't let me down yet. Ubid for $1100. I was also interested in the Yamaha receivers but I couldn't pass on this deal. THX and all. Goes great with my KLF 30's.
  3. Thanks for everyones help. I've been browsing around ebay and noticed this twisted blue wire that they claim beats all other wire as far as noise reduction. Is it just hype or does a twisted wire perform better that the standard oxygen free copper? I know it matters a very little difference based on your postings and I appreciate your input, but this twisted blue wire intrigues me for some reason. User Name quote: Originally posted by Malcolm: Years ago, the folks at McIntosh did blind A/B tests. The result was that once you had large enough wire, there was no audible difference between speaker cables. A lot of people will argue with this. People have come up with all sorts of esoteric speaker cables using CAT5 wire, coax, Litz wire, etc. that they claim to be big improvements over run of the mill speaker cable. The cables forum at www.audioasylum.com has more that you will ever want to know about the topic. IMHO plain old 12 gauge speaker wire is fine for reasonable runs, say 50 feet or less. I am currently in the process of pulling it in my attic and walls for my HT system. Acutally, its not quite plain old 12 gauge wire. It is plain old 12 gauge wire in a CL3 rated jacket. Cost about $.18/foot. I would suggest buying the cheap stuff and see if you can hear the difference. At worse, it is a cheap experiment. At best, it could save you a good deal of money.
  4. Hello all, I recently purchased some KLF 10's to add to my home theatre collection and had a wiring question. I originally wired my original system with 12 guage monster wire but I had just enough to get by. Now that I am adding speakers, how important is it to remain consistent with the speaker wire? Should it be the exact same kind? I realize it's probably good to go with the 12 guage again, but how important is it to use the exact same wire?
  5. The legen KLF 10 is advertised as a front channel speaker but I have seen other guys on this board use the legends in the back too so I was wondering if it makes a difference to how it's wired? I have a Denon AVR5700 which allows 6.1 and 2 sets of surrounds. I currently have KSP S6's on one of the surrond channels on the reciever and they hang on the side walls. My intention is to put the KLF 10-s in the back on the other surround channel and keep the KSP S6's on the side walls. So I guess my question is does it matter if I have my KLF10's on the Surround A terminals or the surround B terminals, or is it just the same? Thanks.

    6.1

    Is anyone out there currently using a digital 6.1 or THX Home theatre? What is the 6 in 6.1? Is it an extra set of rear surrounds? Is it a single speaker in the back between the surrounds? Is it a set of front effect speakers between the center channel and the front mains? What the heck is it? If anyone out there knows, please shoot me an email or show me your layout. I'd like to see some of your plans on how to layout your home theatre. Thanks to all. Cheers. User Name ------------------
