  1. Heck all those jumpers are is a piece of wire bent around i can make you some out off Brass,Copper,how much would you like to pay?Rick

    Thanks for the offer Rick but I managed to find some of all places, at pawn shop.

    They had some rca cables, rf cables, and 2 pair of jumpers in a box;they cost me a whole 50 cents. lol

  2. After being on hold for 30min, the salesperson found what I was looking for. The cost per jumper is 1.50, shipping this tiny item is 6.50. I think I'll order a dozen and sell some on Ebay. lol

    Thanks for the information fellow Klipschmen.

  3. Does anyone know who sells pre out jumpers? I've tried Best Buy, Fryes, Tweeter, Ebay and Radio shack with no luck. I am aware that I could use an RCA cable instead but it just doesn't look right.

    Thanks,

  4. Thanks to all for your input on this, I appreciate it. My system is set up for full blown surround but when it comes to music, I prefer good old two channel. My listening room is 16*16 with a carpet floor. My power comes from a Carver 35x amp going through my Onkyo 919 receiver. I'm pleased with my Forte IIs but I need more(concert level) slam in my life. From what I've read it appears I'm gonna become a Cornwaller come next April. I plan on using my Fortes, much to the chagrin of my wife, for the rear channels. Now all I need is a Heresy for my center channel. lol

    Thanks again fellow Klipschmen.

  5. Next April I'll finally be able to upgrade(Forte II) my home system and I've narrowed down my choices to these two. The question I would like some input on is which of them would you choose?

    Also, which of them has the greater "slam" effect?

    Thanks,

  6. Update!

    My Quintets finally arrived via UPS yesterday afternoon. I must say, for their size, them lil dudes put out some nice sound. Great for movies not so great for music but hey, I have my Forte II's for that. All in all I'm very satisfied.

  7. Should a receiver "heat" up if one is using an external amp to power the main channels? I understand a certain amount of warmth is expected but I think something may be wrong. I recently hooked up a Dolby Digital processor via a 25pin connector to my receiver yet the processor doesn't have any jumpers inserted in the pre-outs.Could this be the cause?

    Thanks,

  8. Thanks for the replies guys. My "warden" wanted something "cute" for the living room and when I showed her the Quintets, she quickly approved. I own a set of Forte IIs which sad to say are in the hall closet. I really need to invest in some sound proofing material since there are 4 windows in my living room. lol

    I'll let ya'll know things workout.

    Again, thanks.

  9. I own a Carver TFM 35x and much to my chagrin, my level(needle) meters are no longer working. Has anyone ever had theirs repaired?

    If so, how much can I expect to pay.

    Also, I need to have the bulbs that light up the meters replaced.

    Thanks,
