Thanks for the impressions/opinions guys, this forum has to be one of the friendliest I've ever seen for first time posters. I'm actually going to get a chance to check out the 61s and some other speakers tomorrow with a couple of the receivers.

I have very particular neighbors, there will be no sub in this apartment until I move out in the next couple of years . I'm operating under a budget of $600, but that's because I've got someone selling me a new pair of RB-61s for around $200 (he owes me.) I'll also be buying the receiver at close to cost. Any combination would be under budget, but if I can save a few bucks by cutting features I can't/won't use, I'm more than willing. I'm really shooting for the best mix of audio quality and value right now, I'll worry about maxing out features on my next amp. I COULD go higher with my budget but the 61s seem like a good start, I'll have to see what I can scoop up the 81s for, if you insist!

Hey guys, I'm interested in replacing the tinny sound of my tv speakers with some punch. I currently sit about 10' from the TV in a living/dining room combo. At first I will be adding only L/R speakers and a HT receiver, with more pieces added as they fit into my budget. I primarily will use them for listening to music and gaming, with occasional TV watching. I've got my speakers narrowed down to 2 choices: RB-51 or RB-61. Furthermore I have a friend who is going to give me a deal on a one of these receivers: Yamaha RX-V series 367 or 467; Denon AVR series 391 or 591. I don't have any feasible way to demo the combination of setups, so I'm looking for someone that has some experience (or at least an educated opinion ) with the pairings. Some people have told me that the Yamaha/Klipsch pairing sounds too bright, but I've also heard that the RBs have required a little more power recently which may remedy this. I can fit the more expensive combos in my budget if it's really worth the extra money. If you have other suggestions feel free to let 'em fly. I appreciate your help.
