do most people listen to 7.1 enhanced when watching tv? i have been debating it alot. to me it seems as the surround left and right dont function the same as on 7.1 enhanced, all of the sounds on the tv go to all of the speakers. any thoughts?

thanx for all the help. after hour and hours of searching i finally found something that works. i pick it up on monday.

My klipsch center speaker is too large for my entertainment center. Rather than shop for a new one, is is safe to place my 45 inch tv on top of the center speaker or will the vibrations cause problems? thanx....

thanx for the input. it helps alot. i havent played dvd on it as of yet. will get the 10 inch today.

1. I upgraded yesterday from a klipsch HD 500 series to VF-35, VC-25 and VS-14 and have a Yamaha 465 receiver, but i am using the 6 inch subwoofer that came with the HD 500. Will this work fine or should I get an 8 or 10 inch woofer? 2. I hear conflicting ideas on speaker settings in the receiver. Do i make the front and center large and the VS-14 small? 3. Does it really make a difference to set the subwoofer in the receiver to both the front and sub instead of just the sub? 4. What crossover and volume would you suggest for the woofer? it is currently at 80 and the 11 o'clock position. 5. From watching TV shows in 5.1 I dont seem to hear alot of effects coming from the VS-14's. Should i manually adjust the volume or keep it with what the auto adjust did via the plug in microphone and YPAO test? That should be all. Thanx for reading and or responding.

thanx for the help

I bought klipsch 500 speakers, yamaha 465 receiver, rocketfish wireless speaker system with 16 guage wires last week. I have noticed when playing movies on my ps3 blueray that sometimes the rear left speaker makes a crackling static sound when something loud happens in the movie. it only happens on the one speaker and i have rewound the movies to the spot where it happens and it makes the identical noise over and over. is this a problem within the dvd movie itself or should i get rid of the wireless speaker system and put the rear speakers directly into the receiver? has anyone had a problem with this happening? also i have my center speaker in the cradle sitting on top of may cable box and have noticed that it rattles sometimes during dialogue like it is blown, but it isn't. i am not sure if it is because the top of the cable box has ventilation holes in it and that is causing it to vibrate. should i mount the center speaker on the wall or put it at the base of my tv? thanx for your help. dean in seattle.
