Looking for a used Denon 1602 receiver in excellent condition and reasonably priced. Have checked both ebay and ubid.

Klipsch web site, I see that the matching speakers for the KSC-C1 are the KSB series: 1.1, 2.1, 3.1, and S1 surround. You can find these used, as they were recently (within the last 2 years) discontinued. You can find this information on the Klipsch web page by floating your mouse over Home Audio then clicking on the Classic link. Scroll down the list to the KSC-C1, click on it, and voila -- there's your matching speaker list! Pretty handy, huh Randy! DD2 P. S. I'm treading on thin ice here, but I have read on this board that some people feel that the Sony receivers MAY sound a little bright/harsh/hissy with Klipsch speakers. No personal experience myself, and I've read it depends on the model. Just passing it along. Doug, Thanks for the info. I'll start looking for reasonably priced used KSB 1 or 2's given the space I have to work with. Also thanks for the PS on the Sony receiver. I may replace it some time next year. Any suggestions on a moderately priced receiver?

How big is the room? What type of equipment are you using? DD2 Doug, Prefer bookshelf size. I do want to keep center and rears. Room is approx. 12x20. Sony prologic receiver, Sony S-360 DVD player, no CD player, JVC 32" TV. I'd like to spend $300 or less so I am considering used equipment. Thanks for your reply.

I am upgrading the speakers on my HT system. I currently have a KSC-C1 center and a pair of quints for the rear. Am looking for the right speakers for the front and the right powered SW. Mainly use system for watching DVDs and some music listening. Any advice would be appreciated.
