  1. I finally purchsed my first pair of Klipsch fllor speakers speakers. I've been using smaller klipsch in my HT for years. I picked up a set of KG-4.2's which are used with a Panasonic SA-HE200k 6.1 Home theatre systems. The thing I notice is that I don't get much sound from the horns unless I really crank it up. I was wondering if it the amplifier makes a difference. Reading through the forums it sounds like it some amps are better at driving the horns than others. I appreciate any feedback. Thanks for the help.
  2. I'm looking for a 10" or 12" sub. KSW, RW something along those lines. I bought Qunitets off of UBID and need a sub badly.
  3. Does anyone know where to go to buy a used Subwoofer. My luck with buying thing's on E-bay is about 50-50.
  4. I'm curious, to the difference between the RF series and the RP series speakers. I always see the RP for sale on UBID. Are they last years model? Thanks
  5. Let's say I scrap the Quintets, maybe use them in another room. The family room is about 25 X 25. My listening range is pretty broad but lets make it simple and say pop music. I would use the system primarily for home theatre. Lets say a budget of $1000 dollars for speakers. quote: Originally posted by dougdrake: You are definitely going to need a subwoofer. Those Quints will only go down to 100-120hz, and you'll miss the first two or three octaves where the bass lives. For an interesting chart that shows all the activity in that region, go here: http://www.azstarnet.com/~solo/musrange.gif You could try running the fronts in "phantom" mode on your receiver, which means it creates a virtual center channel using the front left/right speakers. You simply say NO center speaker in your receiver setup. However, I believe that with the Quintets (IMO), you'll want a physical center channel. Get a Klipsch SS-.5. It's the closest match to the actual Quintet center channel, which are not sold separately and harder to find on Ebay than snowballs in Phoenix right about now. If you are serious about scraping the Quintet deal, let us know your budget, the size of your room, music tastes, relative mix of home theater to music listening...and you'll get some suggestions. The Quintets are great speakers for their purpose. Doug
  6. I have always wanted Klipsch speakers so I purchased some Quintets off of UBID. I am now trying to match them up to create a 5.1 or 6.1 system. There are so many deals out there on speakers now that I started to consider just scraping the Quintets eating the loss and starting over. Does any one have any suggestions for what I should buy to match them up. Should I first invest in a center channel or sobwoofer. I'm still in the market for a reciever but I think I've settled on the Toshiba sd3755 dvd player. I would appreciate any advice. Thanks
