Belial- I have an Onkyo TX-8511 Stereo receiver hooked up to Quintets. I get crisp, clear sound. I purchased the Onkyo for there simple, no frills operation. The unit I have, as all Onkyo have, uses a larger motor.
I have my receiver hooked up to my computer, and I play internet jazz thru it with wonderful results. Clean music, commercial free. Hope this helps.

I've had a lot of enjoyment using Formbys furniture refinisher. Also Formbys furniture cleaner is another great product, that for me, has worked taking out blemishes in wood products without alot of work.

checked out the site again. You might notice that they haven't updated there site since Aug 2001.
Prices seem high to me, YAWA.com has better prices,i don't know if they carry what your looking for .
let me know -bill

Haven't purchased from them-because of there Yahoo 2 star rating, plus there shipping costs seem to be very high compared with other dealers. In addition I just didn't get a warm fuzzy feeling about the products offered, or the web site in general. (the saying -if it sounds to good.....) let me know what you are buying.

Onkyo reviews show that they have good internal construction. I personally like the simple, easy , no nonsense operation of there receivers. No flash and bang, just good quality, simple operation.

For a good inexpensive Stereo receiver i like Onkyo tx8511. For HT go with Denon 1801 at Wal Mart. The price is 369.00. They also have the 2801 at a resonable price also. Just my view. Let me know. Bill

Hi- I am assuming your going with Klipsch. Go to the Klipsch web site. They have information on which speakers work well together. Takes the guessing out of the buying equation! Let us know your decision. Bill

Hey-FYI Wal-Mart,(yes that's correct), is selling the older, 1801 and 2801. For the money you'll save you might be able to buy more Klipsch speakers! (1801 is selling for about 369.00.) Let me know Bill

When I try to connect my computer to my receiver to play internet radio, my receiver (Onkyo TX-8511) makes a loud humming noise. Don't have Aux input on rear of receiver. Where do you suggest I connect to that will stop this humming? (Regular fm,(non-computer) works fine. Bill

Bob G, thanks for the advice, went back and unhooked my tv from running thru the receiver. Hooray! no more bussing from the receiver. Thanks for the advice! Now I can listen to Internet radio thru my receiver, and best of all the Klipsch Quintets sound great!! (Plan on up grading to SB-2 later on.)

Help- Hooked up my Onkyo TX-8511 (stereo) receiver to my computer, to play internet radio thru my receiver hums loudly, (not when I play regular FM stations). What if anything can I do to cut out the humming. (I have no Aux inputs on this receiver).
speakers are Klipsch Quientets.

Hooray! Solved my own problem! Thanks for the advice everyone.

FYI- If anyone out there is retired military or in the reserves. You can purchase Klipsch speakers at the AFFES store, from what I can tell they have great prices. They don't carry every model, but the ones they have, seem to have Super prices. Thought you'd like to know. Bill

Also Crutchfield is now selling Denon, in case you didn't want to drive. They are a reliable dealer.

<[bR>Noticed your receiver is a Sony 975-how do you like it?
I am building a complete system, looking at Denon 1801, and NAD T751. Price being the factor. Your ideas, suggestions please. This will go along with my Klipsch SB-2's.

Hi,
I see what you mean, on the savings, just worried that IF,(BIG if), something were to go wrong, can I get the Merchant I bought it thru, on line, to honor the warranty? Its a toss up 548.00 online for the NAD 751
or pay a Dealer, 748.00. Thanks for the input!

Visited the Indy Ovation, on 82nd street today, heard the SB-2. Salesman was a little snooty, but not bad. Price was right in dealer specs, no deal there. Clean nice store.
As many Ovation stores there are in Indy, I'd think you'd find one that would work.
I live in Terre Haute,IN you want a nightmare, come down to Audio Connection for a real weird scene!

Thanks

Please read the post "goodbye Klipsch", on the promedias! You don't have to worry about anything "smoking" the promedias-they do it themselves, quite well.
