  1. I can put it on the mantle. Its deeper than the mantle, but maybe there is some work i can do to "Help it Fit"....I was looking at RP-450........It looks like what i am aiming for, but the spec sheet said it had rear firing bass ports? Does that mean i cant put it in a wall? Do you think the RP 450 would be a good fit to replace my Icon Center? Rear firing would mean that it would be best to have some space between the ports and the wall, yes. If you were really sold on the RP line though and just had to buy something, I think the 440 might do better though, simply because of the 4 inch drivers in your configuration already. Thank you for the feedback. Its funny...the W Icon seriis 4,5 inches..........theRP-400 is 4 inches.....and the RP-405 is 5.25. Almost right in the middle....1 question.....i know there is no substitue for listening, but woud the larger speakers (RP-450)be more mid and bass heavy? Would they over power the Left and right?

  3. Thank you for the feedback. I admit...I am worried about sacrificing the sound quality moving to a soundbar.......Are there any other Klipsch Centers that i should consider? If i am going to dig into the wall......i might as well ask...right? Lol I was thinking perhaps a wider center for a wider field of sound.....?
  4. Hello All. I was hoping to get some suggestions from the group on the best path forward. I am moving and my new location will have a fire place under the tv, so i don’t have a place fot the cabinet ( which was where i put my center) My current Pre Move Set up is: Klipsch WF-34 Icon-W Series Floorstanding Loudspeaker for my Left and Right ChannelsKlipsch WC-24 Icon-W Series Center Klipsch XW-300D Sub Qty 2 P.O.S Surrounds (That definitely will be replaced :-) ) Onkyo 5.1 Receiver I wanted to keep the setup with the exception of the center, because i don’t want to dig in the wall (unless necessary). I have been digging around the Klipsch site for a passive Soundbar that i could substitute and the closest i got was the G-24. It looks like it will do the job, but i have a few questions. The first question is that the Klipsch G-42 is listed as a L/C/R Soundbar......can the G-42 Soundbar just be used as a Center channel only in a 5.1 set up. If the answer is yes....will using it as a center only power all the tweeters in the speakers? (The manual says that each L/C/R speaker has its own connections, so i am trying to figure out how this would work to wire) Second question...am i missing any options.....That Klipsch can provide with out digging out my wall? Any help is appreciated Thanks XW-300D SUBWO
  5. I know i can manually set them to 80hz acorss the board, but if i run the audussy eq (room set up ) it will override my settings Question right now i have my sub set at 80 for hz for low freq cross over If i set my front and centers to 80...what would you suggest i set the sub cross over to?

  11. Happy Hollidays All, Question for the forum. I have been told the Klipsch W-34 will take a little while to "break in" and i will notice how much the sound will improve... the question is.....the break in period i have heard from different people ranges from 1 month, to 1 year would love some thoughts for people that have purchased Klipsch previousley
  12. Happy Holidays All. Question... I will be running a Onkyo Sr-607 which is supports bi amping the front Left and Right speakers Is there anything to be aware of with this type of set up?.....Any suggestions if I am going to do this .... Thx -Brad
  13. Hello All and Greetings. For my Hanukkah present my wife let me go out and buy myself a very nice set of Klipsch Icon WF-34 for my Front Left and Right. I could have sworn the speakers are 34 inches high (thats what all the website for various vendors say), but the gold old klipsch site itself says they are 40 inches high I will get around to measuring them at bust buy, but does any one know which height is correct? This is important, because I am centering my TV between the left and right speakers with the lower edge of the Samsung even with the top of the Klipsch speakers Speaking of height for the TV. I purchased a 21 inch tall Salamander synergy AV/stand....whats the general consensus on how hight to place the tv above the stand....is there one? Thanks all...I look forward to being part of the Klipsch Community Oh yeah...for Hanukkah i got...... Samsung 46 inch LED TV (240 Refresh Rate) Klipsch WF-34 for my Left and Right Front... Klipsch WC-24 for the Center Klipsch SW 350 for the sub woofer Onkyo SR-607 reciever and I am re using my old Cambridge soundworks fronts as my rears Its a good Hanukkah!
