Thanks, I know the right center channel now. Since my bedroom is a regular (not the master bedroom) would it be overkill to set up with RSX-5's as the mains with RSX-4 as surrounds, or should I go all RSX-4's? Now it still remains what is the best reciever to get for them. If no one has any ideas, does anyone know a good link to educate me on how to match up speakers and receivers? I'm considering being able to spend up to $500 for it, but If that would be overkill for this setup, I'd still like to save where possible. Also, I realize I'll want to upgrade eventually, but I think this will be a good bedroom setup for a long while until i get my own place where I can really set up a nice main system. Thanks again.

Hi, I will be upgrading my HT setup very soon, but am still learning the technicalities to a good setup. After testing out different kinds of speakers, I have decided on Klipsch. Since i'm also consolidating from my current setup (an Aiwa 5.1 shelf system from 1998, L/R main speakers are 60w surround is 33w) I was looking at smaller speakers that output big sound and like the RSX-4. I probably listen to music 55% in 2.1 and movies the other 45% with my system in my bedroom. So my first question is should I settle with the RSX-4 or go with the RSX-5? I could not find a local carrier who carries the RSX-5 to compare the RSX-4 to so i'm looking for opinions. Also for the center channel should i stick with the RSX-4 or would the C-1 or 2 be an ok pair up? I will be pairing this with a new CD player (an Oppo DV980, I like the idea to have the option to get sa-cd or dvd-a), I have a PS3 for blu-ray and will also be using various game consoles on it, and I need a a/v reciever. Now my second question is what reciver would be good to pair this setup with? So far I have heard that Harman Kardon, Marantz, NAD, Onkyo, and Pioneer Elite are good with Klipsch, but what should I look for, how much power, or if someone already knows a good match let me know. I'd like to stay within my initial plan of no more than $300 for the reciever, but I am considering stretching that a bit further, but again, I don't reallly know what exacty to look for to get the most out of the speakers. I want to be able to play music in 2.1 when desired so I need a reciever that will output to the sub while in stereo mode, from what I've seen this eliminates the standard Pioneer recievers. My TV only outputs 720p/1080i, and does not have an HDMI input, however I do want the option to connect the oppo though hdmi for music, and if it will allow a reroute for hdmi to display through component would be nice, though not neccessary. Also a 5.1 reciever is fine, this will remain a bedroom setup, later on when I have my own home, i'll think about 7.1. Any help is greatly appreciated.Thanks!
