My son is an original Phish fan. He new them before they were discovered. Anyway, thanks again for the input. When you are building a house every change cost $$$$$$$ big time. Therefore I have gone as far as I can afford to go with the HT room. It already cost me $5000 to expand the room to support a built in TV set up. I think I am just going to sell the Corns and take your suggetion and build a total match with the inwall speakers. Does Klipsch offer a complete package (front, rear, center and sub) that is balanced technically and has quality that approximates the Heritage line? What is it called.

Hi Doug, I can't modify the area. The ceiling is 10' (4' above the TV). What about the rest of my questions? Your opinion? Tom

Can I ask for some more of your valuable opinions? My wife does not want floor standing speakers all over the family (HT)room. So checked out an array of Klipsch ceiling speakers for the rear set up. What do you think of using SCW2 or RCW5's? Also, I just do not have any room for large center. I only have 8" of space above the built in TV to fit a center. Could I use an SCW2 or RCW5 in the ceiling above the TV as a center? If not what would you recommend? Our home is under construction and I am going there next week to wire for the speakers before the drywall goes up. Any recommendations on cable?

Thanks Chuck for all the detailed info.

OK OK OK, Uncle I give up. I will just have to increase my budget. Thanks for the input. The next Coke is on me. Tom

Chuck, Thanks for the response. How much did your system cost. I am not a tech type. I gather you are and built the speakers yourself. Is is hard to do and where do you find the material? I live in Orange County, CA. Tom

WOW...thanks for ALL that information. Now, I just need to win the lottery to pay for all your recommendations! My room size is 22' long and 18' wide. The ceiling is 10' high. I don't have room for a CII Center. We listen to all kinds of music and watch a lot of DVD's. My budget is in the $500 to $1000 range for center, rear center, sub woofer and rear speakers combined. This is why I was thinking of selling the CII's because it cost so much to buy speakers to match the Corns. It may cost less to just by the complete Bose system. Who makes the SVS CS+ sub you mentioned? Cost range? Does it come in a complete package for a 6 channel system? Are the Heresy and Academy and Chorus speakers Klipsch products? Cost? Once again, thanks for all your time and tremendous info. Tom

Hi Cool, Thanks for the reply. I live in Tustin CA, Orange County. How much would you give for my CII's? I am moving and may not want to take them with me. Tom

I own Cornwall II speakers that I purchased in 1986. I am 59 years old and just posted a question on using the Cornwalls with Home Theater. If you have any advice I would appreciate hearing from you.

I have a pair of Cornwall II speakers that I have used in my Surround Sound Home Theater set up. I want to build a high value/$ system and wondered... A. Do I need a subwoofer with the Cornwalls to enhance the low end in DVD's? B. If I stay with the Cornwalls for my front speakers, what speakers or tech specs should I use for the center and rear speakers. C. Or..should I sell the Cornwalls and replace them with more modern speakers for the front? If yes, what would you recomend replacing them with. D. What are a pair of Cornwall II speakers worth?
