[First home theater speaker choice.]

Great advice, thank you. Leaning towards the premiere stuff I shared previously. Again, this us my very first system, I'm used to hearing my TV speakers until I got the Sonos I will teturn. One step at a time. Thanks again!!

I'm not against perhaps spending a little bit more. What about this? http://www.klipsch.com/products/reference-premiere-home-theater-systems#rp-150

I live in the Cedar Rapids area. What does rebadged icon mean exactly? Yes, I was trying to get an initial 5.1 system for under 2000 including a receiver.

stay away from best buy "reference" stuff. look into reference premiere stuff

 

and welcome.  

 

what is your budget and location?

 

I had heard someone else mention staying away from the best buy stuff, why is that? I am returning the Sonos stuff I bought there but could just get a refund instead of exchange if need be. Is direct from Klipsch better?

 

Budget is not great, 1500-2000. I live in Iowa. This is my first attempt at building a home theater.

I am setting up my first home theater to replace the Sonos setup I just spent $1800 on and will be returning. It sounds good, but not true surround and pricey.

 

My question is this. I was thinking about using one of these two set ups and would appreciate some good advice. I am getting a 7.2 receiver for future upgrades. 

 

1.

Front and back - 2- R-15M

Center - R-25C

R10SW

 

2. Simply replace the front with the R-26F.

 

What are your thoughts...good first system?

 

Thanks!
