Great advice Busa. They are the oiled walnut finish. I'll head out today to get some oil. I'll look into to the crossover updates. I'll ask if he has a kit for the center as well. I've got an engineer friend that I'll ask to help me with the soldering. Thank you.

Thanks for your input T2K. I've got my eye on a couple Ebay listings for those surrounds. The KGs actually don't have keyhole mounts. I'm just a little leery using stands because I've got a 4 year old and a 9 month old tearing around the house. Maybe I'll see if I can talk the wife into a larger entertainment center.

So I recently inherited a pair of KG2.5 bookshelfs, a KV2 center and a SW-8 II sub. With a little bit of research, I understand that they're not world-beaters, but they're certainly better than the HTiB Onkyos that I currently have and I'd like to keep them going for sentimental reasons. For what it's worth, I also recently upgraded my receiver to a Yamaha RX-V677. Anyways, I have a few questions. First, is there anything I should do, maintenance-wise, with speakers this old? They've been sitting in my grandpa's TV room playing jazz and old movies for 20+ years. To my ears, they sound good and besides a little dust around the edges, they look good, as well. Also, could anyone recommend a good pair of surround speakers to match these? I know it might be hard to match up discontinued speakers this old, but I figure its worth a shot. Last, I currently have my left and right mounted on the wall on either side of my screen. How should I set these up? Stands? Mounts? There are 4 threaded holes on the bottom, but I'm not sure how to find mounts that would match, plus they're pretty heavy. Thanks for any input. I greatly appreciate it.
