This is what I was hoping to hear!!!!!!!!!! I think fuse is blown. The fuse I removed is a 1.25 amp is it correct to replace with 1.5 amp?? Thanks again, Jeremy by the way am I the only one who was too stupid to realize that the grey thing was a fuse???? ******************* edit:sorry I just noticed that there was a seperate forum for powered subs this is the only one I ever go to. Thanks for answering my question anyway. I'll do better next time I promise..... This message has been edited by jm on 10-20-2001 at 11:18 PM

After 2 months of pounding away my KSW-12 seems to be malfunctioning. When plugged in no sound and led light is not illuminated. Any suggestions for a quick fix???? I kept it plugged to surge protector all the time in standby mode, is this correct? Anyway, looks like I should have purchased the extended warranty ie authorized dealer purchase. Should I contact Klipsch and send directly to them or find a dealer to send it back for me? Can a dealer work on it for me? Looks like I will be forking out some of the money I saved to get it fixed. Still ahead for now though, and still loving rest of reference series speakers. Thanks for any help, Jeremy

OK this is what I have done and it seems to be working well. My VCR does not have S video out. I ran component video from DVD to TV and Digital audio from DVD to Receiver. I ran Coaxial to VCR and then Coaxial out of VCR and into TV. I ran analog RCA audio from TV to Receiver for Audio while watching TV. I also connected S video from Receiver to TV on Seperate input which I can switch over to any time I want to see onscreen stuff from receiver. This seems to work best for me. At least so far. I might change my mind when I get all the speakers hooked up and use it for a while. Thanks again for all the help, I am going to be working alot the next few days but I will get back to you when I get everything running smoothly and all speakers hooked up.

Thank you very much for the help. I will let you know how everything turns out. This will be my first surround sound system so I am very excited and cant wait to hook it up and watch a few movies. Jeremy

Thankyou for the response. Let me be a little more specific. I have Toshiba CW34X92 TV, Toshiba SD 5109 DVD, Samsung VCR, Denon AVR 3802, KSW-12, 2 RF-3, RC-3, and 2 RS-3. Before I had Coaxial cable running to VCR and then into TV. TV has Coaxial input. DVD was hooked up to component inputs on TV. Now I have DVD hooked to Component inputs on receiver and Then component outputs from receiver to TV. I also have video and audio outs from VCR to receiver and then from receiver to TV. I do not have a converter box just the coaxial cable running out of the wall. I guess the best way is to run coaxial into VCR then I think VCR will pass through signal out of Video and audio to receiver then to TV. Initially I wanted to hook TV input coming through Coaxial cable directly to Receiver so I could select between VCR, Cable TV, or DVD, on receiver. This would require some kind of adaptor to split coaxial signal into video and audio out or s-video so it would plug directly into back of receiver from wall. Is there such an adaptor and will it degrade signal? Signal is not too good to begin with. Does this make any more sense? Also, What settings should I use for different speakers, small or large? What about sub crossover point? Thanks again Jeremy

I am hooking up reference series speakers to denon 3802. I also have VCR and DVD. What is best way to hook coaxial cable signal out of the wall to receiver. I thought of buying coaxial plug to regular video (which looks like RCA) plug adaptor, if there is such a thing. Is there such an adaptor? Am I missing something?? Thank you for any help, Jeremy PS You can make fun of me some, but remember I have feelings too......

Thankyou for the comments. I finally took the plunge today. I bought speakers mentioned above along with Denon AVR 3802. I thought I could always go with direct surrounds later on when I add other two rear effects speakers. I will let you know how everything goes with internet order.

I am new to Home theater. I have Toshiba CW34X92TV and Toshiba SD5109 DVD. I am thinking of buying RC-3, 2 RS-3, 2 RF-3, and KSW-12. I am also still a little unsure about receiver. I am leaning to Yamaha RXV 800. Is RXV1000 worth extra $$? What about Onkyo 696?? Any features that I need that one of the above doesnt have? I am thinking of ordering from crazyeddie.com has anyone had any bad experiences with this vendor or is there any reason that I shouldn't order over internet. Website states items are new in box.
