Hello... yes, this is my first post. Hopefully you guys can help me out. Im upgrading my current home system as its just not "cutting?" it anymore. Im upgrading my sub, fronts, receiver and center. I have the older Klipsch KG5? bookshelf rears, I think I'll hang on to those... Im using some older sony fronts and an older Klipsch Sub with the 8" front and 10" rear passive speaker. "sorry, cant remember the model names :P" Im also using a Denon AVR-1500 receiver... but I think I want to take advantage of the new DTS and 5.1 surround on the new receivers.
Im thinking about the Yamaha HTR-5460, Its fairly affordable and seems to have some nice features. Any thoughts on another receiver would be appreciated.
This is where you guys really come in handy Im curious as to which Klipsch fronts you guys would recommend... and before you tell me to "go listen to them at HIFI buys" Im not... My living room isnt sound proofed, and I dont have the same room configurations as they do... So I want "real world" experience. I like the look and specs of the reference series RF-3 speakers. Yet I also like the Synergy SF-2 speaker as well. Please give me some feedback and suggestions on those 2 speakers if you can.
The Sub, I love bass... I play just as much music as I do movies, and I have to have bass. What are your thoughts on the KSW-12.A 440watt powered sub seems like it could handle the job, but there again... I havnt heard it. I would keep the sub I have now, and possibly have 2 subs. Any thoughts on this?
Center channel is no biggie... I just need to decide which fronts to get, then I will match the center with that.
I will thank you guys in advance for any help you can offer me... Its a big decision for me... so please set me straight
Thanks Again
Ryan
