Pretty sure I was open by looking at other brands when before I was just looking at Klipsch for subs. This is why I ask questions is because I know I’m not experienced like you guys are and I appreciate the advice. At the same time, subs are also pretty expensive so I also need to make it fit a reasonable budget. I was advised that two subs would provide better results than just one, but I’m still learning the process and finding out what would be best before I decide and make the purchase so that I can have best results without too much regret. Your experience and those of others here is valuable.

No worries, thanks! Any thoughts on the subs I mentioned above? Will they do the job? Interested in using them for movies and not so much for music.

I’d like to keep it under 3k I’m not sure what this means. Sorry for my noobness!

Ok so how are these two for sub options: Either BIC America F12 or Polk PSW505 I’m leaning torwards the latter. I can get two of these Polk subs and cut down overall cost on my proposed system and still have a good performing system for movies.

Would getting one R-112sw sub enough instead of two R-110sw? Room about 12’x23’. Would something like Bic Acoustech PL-200 II be a better option?

Ok so something like this: Fronts RP-280F X2 Center RP-450C X1 Sides RP-250s X2 Rears RP-160m X2 Sub R-110sw X2??? Do I need two? Ceiling CDT-5650-C II X2 Ouch its getting costly! How does the set up look? Are any bundle type of packages out there that can drive down the cost some?

Thank you for the input Wuzzzer. I appreciate the advice. The only home theater system I’ve had before is a $300 box kit from Wal-mart so I can only go up from there! I will get the same subs like you mentioned to make them work better together. Is two ceiling speakers enough or would the 4 be better? So wide dispersion design for the sides and direct dispersion for the rears. Does that mean the RP-250 is significantly lacking in those areas? I’ve reconfigured my proposed system to incorporate those changes. I could only find individual pieces and not a “set” so not sure if there’s something better for similar price. How does this look: Klipsch 2x RP-280F rear floor standing (direct dispersion?), 4x RP-240s for the sides and wide dispersion, 1x RP-450C center channel, 2x R-110sw subs. WIll run me a little over 3k just for that, which is my upper limit. Same receiver as posted above. Oh and the 2x Klipsch CDT-5650-C II ceiling Atmos speakers.

I’m currently finishing my home theater room and will be starting construction on it next week in our basement. I’ve been looking into affordable yet quailty home theater systems and have created what I think is decent, based on my budget and what I’ve been able to find online and through forums. I will readily admit that I am largely inept at the whole AV world so please feel free to offer advice.Here is what I am currently planning on getting.Marantz SR7012 AV receiver, that features 9.2 channel capability, 125 wpc, Audyssey for test tone generator calibration, pre-outs for possibly adding a 220w or so amp for extra speakers and providing sufficient power, Atmos/DTS:X capable, 4K upscaling, Bluetooth capable, etc. Alexa compatible is nice but not necessary. Klipsch 7.1 RP-250 Reference Premiere speakers with R-110SW sub. I will also be adding height ceiling Atmos speakers, Klipsch CDT-5650-C II, either 2 or 4 speakers, and an additional and larger sub, Klipsch R-124W 400 watts. I’m planning on a 7.2.2 or 7.2.4 configuration. Does this look reasonable and like it would work well together? Am I missing anything or is there something better in the same price range that I should consider?
