Here's my set-up now: RF-82’s (fronts) RC-62 (center) RS-42’s (surrounds) Two Sub-10’s (subwoofers) Denon 4308ci Receiver Sony KDL52XBR4 television Denon DVD-3800BDCi Blu-Ray player Onkyo HD-805 HD DVD/DVD player The Problem I'm running into is i'm not saying my sound isnt clear because it is. But its not STRONG, if that makes any sense. I Feel that the dialog in my center is more discreet and soft than powerful and clear. and as for my Front's I just feel they are way too bright! When I go the cinema I feel like I'm hearing a nice strong sound but not to bright to blow you back or make your ears bleed. It's really hard to explain it lol.

How do you all feel the WC-24 compares to the RC-62? I'm looking for that STRONG cinema sound. I've had the 62 for sometime now and am thinking that the problem I keep running into is my center speaker.

So I finally did some tweaking here and there and decided to set all my speakers to smal in my receiver. Now my receiver gives me options to adjust the crossover setting for each speaker (40hz, 60hz, 80hz, 100hz, and 120hz) what do you all recommend for the settings to be at for the RF-82's? When I did the Auddyssey auto calibration in my receiver it set the surrounds to 80hz crossover, the center to 40hz, and the LFE to 80hz Thanks for the help.

Sorry to put this in this thread. I didn't even realize there was a subwoofer thread. Anyways I'm not in a huge room at all. I have one sub on the right side near the right speaker and another on the left side near the left speaker. They both do sound very good but I feel that maybe they could sound better. Unfortunetly I don't have the liberty to put them wherever I want because space is a huge issue, and these are huge subs. The thing I just always felt was my speakers sounded to bright in a way. I felt I wasnt really getting the punding bass in movies that everyone talks about. In fact I always felt my speakers would push out more bass then my subs. Now the thing is if I turn the gain in my subs up they start to get really annoying and dont sound right at all. I couldn't do any tweaking last night becuase after all it was 3am lol. I'lll try some more things out now and see where I get. But I keep hearing mixed reactions as far as setting my speakers to small or large....? Oh and to be honest I never messed with the phase control on these subs. I've always just left them at 0. Now the reason I said this might be a newbish question is cause I have no idea what phase is or even does in terms of my subs. lol I've had these subs for what seems like forever and I have no idea what they do. Thanks again everyone.

Hello, So I’ve been a HUGE Klipsch fan/Owner for 5 years now and I can never see myself owning any other speakers. Keep in mind I’m still young lol. Anyways What I’m trying to do here is set-up my system the best possible way for the best possible sound. Here’s my 5.1 set-up: RF-82’s (fronts) RC-62 (center) RS-42’s (surrounds) Two Sub-10’s (subwoofers) Pioneer Elite VSX-94TXH Receiver Sony KDL52XBR4 television Anyways where I’m getting confused with everything is in my sub settings. For about a year now I’ve been listening to my system with my speakers set to LARGE in my receiver and the knobs on the back of my Sub’s evened out at about or around the half way mark. Now from what I’ve been reading and hearing lately is I can get even better sound if I set my speakers to “SMALL” in my receiver and turn the Lowpass Frequency on my subs all the way up (120hz)…..? And set the crossover in my receiver to 80hz. So is this correct? So then what should I do with my Gain control if I set my LPF to 120hz? I’m not a real bass heavy person but I do want it to sound right, if that makes any sense. I am strictly movies with my system and ONCE IN A WHILE I’ll throw in Dave Matthews on Blu-ray. But I hardly listen to music. What I want to do here is get my sound sounding as close as possible to the cinema. I mean isn’t this what we all wanna do? Anyways thanks for the help everyone. Sorry for the long read.
