Ken, I assume your looking a Tubes? If not, I love Creek and Cambridge Audio. The creek is about 695.00 w/remote and the cambridge is only 250.oo. Just my opinion.........

HDRB, Thanks for the excellent, consise review. I found a picture and unit at www.nbizz.com/soundclassic/listings/243.html Unit lists for 225.00 To much? Any recommendations about sound classics? Thanks again for all you help.

I am intrigued! Are there any pictures of a HK 430? i HAVE looked all over the web, and can't find any. Can someone explain is this an amp or receiver tube or solid state? Thanks Bill wm12324@hotmail.com

Jalen01, You are on the right track. Since you have the Cambridge Audio CD player, look into Cambridge audio Integrated amps. They use the interworks from Creek, which is a wonderful company. Cambrige for the money is well worth the time............. let me know what you do....bill

Justin just joking -seems you got excellent advice. How do I reach your site for pics? I can't pull up your setup! Bill

Justin, It sounds like you need to go to a Local dealer for Klipsch. Where you could purchase everything you need, and check to see about future upgrades/tradeins. If you go with Klipsch, check the series in the form, to get the Matching recommendations for rear/center channel speakers. Start small and work up! But mostly work with a LOCAL dealer-for the service and support for this kind of money-they would most likely setup the system for you! Good luck rich guy!

A, If you listen to just music, instead of HT look into Cambridge Audio-For clean perfect sound, also Creek, who makes the componets for Cambridge. Regrards.........

Ice, For music, go with seperates Cambridge Audio, or Creek. You can buy a tuner,integrated amp for your price range. If you are into HT go with Denon. The 1802 is a good mid priced model that should serve you well. hope this helps........bill

Kenneth is correct. I have a system set up like this, where I have a 1/8 headphone connector with two connections coming out of my computer,I have cable (radio shack audio cable) running to two integrated amps where I just hook up to the AUX connection with a Y connector. I run two sets of speakers with no problems. I listen to Beethoven.com internet music. Total cost was about 12.00 dollars. Hope you get this done, I love listening to music thru my computer. regards

Dave, I listen to music thru my computer. I just plugged in a cable, (same size as my computer speakers). and ran it to my integrated amp,(creek), where I plugged it into the aux connection. I listen to internet radio beethoven.com and get great sound! As far as cd players so look at cambridge audio, thru the audio advisor web site. They work well and are about 225.00 or less. regards

Deang, My experience is with CREEK Audio, hooked to SB-3 Klipsch's. I Love Creek for the simple construction, and wonderful power and sound. PRICE was my consideration. For 695.00 I got an Integrated Amp that is so powerful a 45w per channel, that I can't turn it up past 2 clicks. A company that makes excellent equipment using creeks componets, is Cambridge Audio. It can be purchased even cheaper than Creek and works just as well. Good luck

Boychu, Look at the Creek 4330 integrated Amp. It reproduces simple, clean, direct sound and the price of their equipment is resonable on your wallet. ------------------ Bill

Thanks everyone who answered my question so thoughtfully. I did as suggested, and It works great. The Integrated Amp is a Great difference in sound and power! Thanks Again ------------------ Bill

I just got a Creek integrated amp. Due to budget limitations (kids new glasses), I have to wait on the tuner. Can I hook up my Klipsch speakers, and cd player to the amp and run it through my present Onkyo receiver? Or does anyone have other suggestions for me. New to this type of set up. ------------------ Bill

Daryl, For a Little more money, look at NAD. Also research audioreview.com for specific models your interested in. I have the Onkyo stereo receiver, that I like for its simple features, and better build and quality insides. Also check yawaonline.com for prices of NAD products. ------------------ Bill

Pete, Don't want to confuse the issue, both are good. Reviews I've read says go with Onkyo as Denons quality seems to be in question. Also if you want a good, no frills receiver,for movies- look into NAD 751 or 761. A little more money, but better quality that will go well with your Klipsch speakers. IMO ------------------ Bill

Indy and everyone who made a comment Thanks. I went back to the Klipsch Dealer, who kindly refunded the major portion of my price. I then purchased the Correct length of speaker wire I needed. I have my Klipsch SB3's humming now, and love them. Again Thanks for your responses. ------------------ Bill

Inso I sent you an email-but instead of fixing yours, I have a set (less than 1 year old), I just retired -bought the SB3's. email wm12324@hotmail.com if interested. ------------------ Bill

Moon, I did the same thing myself. I realized that having someone -nearby to talk with about problems with equipment was worth the price over The Deals-you may or may not get over the net..... Good luck. ------------------ Bill

Silver, My problem is I have the speakers right next to my wall unit on each side, with no room to move them. What other recommendations do you suggest? ------------------ Bill

Moon, You should really look into NAD audio products. They are pricey, but for the value/quality they give I believe you will hear a noticable improvement in your systems preformance. ------------------ Bill

I just became a Klipsch member, with the SB3's, which are wonderful. I bought Kimber Kable,(I know don't beat me up), but the lengths I bought I find are about three feet to short on each side. Should I just admit I made a mistake and buy new, longer cable, OR is there a way to use connecters and make the wire longer? Kimber Kable 4VS is the make of wire. Bill ------------------ Bill

Ignoring all the junk spoken here, to answer your question. Try Sound Distributors, located in your home town. Also try YAWA.COM they have good products,pricing,and low shipping costs. For good warrenties, try Crutchfield. Excellent service, far prices. Hope this helps. ------------------ Bill

Don't remember seeing the c7's per se, but ebay has had a lot of Klipsch products, (bigger speakers) on there site. ------------------ Bill

Belial- If you haven't already purchased, you might check out the Wal-Mart.com web site. They were selling the Denon's last years model, 1801 for 329.00, and the 2802 for 499.00. Good Luck Personally I like the Onkyo's for there easy to setup and use. ------------------ Bill This message has been edited by wm12324 on 11-13-2001 at 03:03 PM
