Hello Klipsch Nation, I need your opinions.... I currently have Klipsch CDT-5800-C II's as my rears in ceiling and they are amazing. I'm going to add another pair of speakers in the front to achieve a Dolby Atmos / more fuller sound. If you are spending my money which option do you choose? 1. Add another pair of In ceiling CDT-5800-CII's 2. Add a pair of RP-140SA and place them on top of my RF3-II's? Thank you

I've requested info on Blu Ray players/Universal Disc players from Klipsch Nation before, I have received outstanding info and have done some research.... I am 90% sure I'm going to purchase the Oppo 103D, which is at the top of my price range. My 10% concerns are "future proof" related, I don't want to make another disc player purchase for another 5+ years. I don't currently have a 4k TV, but would love to get one in the event one of my current models quits. I know the 103 doesn't support 4k, but does it matter??? Please respond to why or why not I should make the purchase. Thank you

I had some custom oak floor stands made for my RS-3 II's I used to have, they are beautiful and very functional/sturdy. I'd love to send you a picture of them, but I can't figure out for the life of me how to attach a picture to this post....I go to image, it asks for a URL and I'm lost. I would also sell them if you ever made it up to Wisconsin

This is a question for a buddy of mine, which I couldn't answer. He wishes to do a 5.1 speaker configuration with the rears being in-ceiling and the fronts being in-wall. My response was to get the best Klipsch in-wall/ceiling speakers he could afford and buy 5. His response was....if my center channel speaker is so important why doesn't a company make a "beefed up" center to match the other in-wall speakers? Crickets....is what he heard from me. Thoughts from Klipsch Nation? Thank you

Let's say I decide to jump into the new Premiere series stuff, what is a fair price to ask for my RC3-II on craigslist? It's in very good condition no cosmetic issues.

Now that the Reference Premiere series is making the rounds, just curious if someone could tell me if the RP-440C will sound better than the RC3-II? Any and all opinions are welcome. Thank you

I will not be using it for SACDs. I just based my response on hearing so much about the Oppo. So......If I am primarily going to be using it for Movie watching could you please recommend the best BDP player and if possible a model that could also be used for 4k if I make the switch in the future? Thank you

My disc player is only for movies. That's when I want my system to preform. I stream music for "get-togethers" but not nearly at the volume level as movies. So The Oppo is my choice?

The Marantz I would get is the 5007, which retails for $599. How does the Oppo-103 compare to the Marantz-5007?

Its been forever since I thought about buying a disc player. Please suggest a nice one. I could spend $400-500ish but for that much you would really need to "sell" me on why I should want it. I do not plan on upgrading my TV to a 4k until my current model stops working. As always any and all help is appreciated. Thank you

Where are your 4 - 5800's placed? If I had two 5800's in-ceiling for rears and two in-wall 5800's for front.....and then added a RC-64 II for center would the RC-64 II blow the whole show out of the water or would it be a seamless sounding outfit?

I don't have the answer to the Dolby atmos question. Why may I ask would you be wondering?

I have Two 5800's in the ceiling for my rears

It is in my basement which is open and around 1,000 sq. ft. however, my listening/viewing area is really compact. I am sitting probably 12 feet away from Center channel.

Why do you say it wouldn't match? Would it match the CDT-5800-CII's? Thank you

Okay, now that I may have gotten your attention with an enticing title I would love to get an opinion. I am not a fella who knows too much...just trying to do right. I believe the best speakers in my group are my ceiling speakers CDT-5800-CII. They have a titanium dome tweeter and an aluminum woofer. which should put them in the reference category? I am running RF3-II's and an RC3-II center I want a "bigger sounding" "more fuller sounding" center. I assume an RC-64 II would match, but would it be WAY too big for my RF3-II's and CDT-5800-CII's? Would an RC-62 II sound better than the center I currently have? Thank you for your help

great thoughts by all, I fiddle with the settings all the time. Just looking for a bigger sound

I think I have everything adjusted pretty well......I am just getting greedy and want a little more. Can I get more of a center without compromising my system?

I watch movies and sports from my set-up. It seems a high percentage of my sound (mostly dialogue) comes from my center. Very little comes from my towers. Wouldn't it make sense to boost the center some how? Would a 5 or 7 "fit"? I don't really want to spend the $ on RF-7 towers but I could on a center. Thoughts?

I would love to beef up my RC3-II center by adding a twin to give me dual centers. Is this possible, how do I wire and how will it sound? Thank you

Thank you all, any idea where GotHover found that service bulletin?

I have gotten great info from Klipsch Nation on my home audio, now lets try a car audio problem that is stumping me. 2011 F150 with 18,000 miles, stock stereo. still has warranty. Ford won't fix unless they hear "the problem". "the problem" has not happened during 2 visits to the dealership. My passenger side speaker sometimes for a lack of a better term "pops lightly" and sometimes kicks out for a brief second before coming back on. I can not pin point a cause (bumps, speed, loud, soft, cd, radio, speed differentiated volume is off). It just does it when it wants to. approximately every other time I turn the truck on. It lasts for a few seconds then it is okay. sometimes it happens right when the truck is turned on, other times towards the end of a trip to town and even sometimes in the middle of a trip. Thoughts? Thank you

Thank you all for the advice. Next question....how much better do the 6-II's sound than my 3-II's?

I know I should be satisfied and I am, but.....what if I could get better? Having already sawed my Klipsch CDT 5800-C-II's into the ceiling for rears, they have to stay. However, what would be the best Klipsch package (Towers, center, sub) currently on the market to match them? I don't want them to be over-matched (if possible) It is for a basement system primarily used for movies but also for music when friends come over. Thank you

In response to CECAA850's questions.... Do you have a limit on size? No, however, I prefer a box style woofer. The cylinder style of some of the SVS models I think would be bigger than my RF-3's which in my opinion would look out of place. Do you have a limit on price? Yes I have a limit on price, but I want something good. I think for $500ish I should be able to get something pretty good? But, if I listened to something that really made my N_ _ Ts tingle for $800ish I would do it. I don't want somthing that is going to drown out my existing speakers. I have a good sounding system with ample power but they are RF-3's Do you care if it's new or used? New, please Would you be opposed to building something? The only things I like to build are pro-series Vodka and Diet Sierra Mist drinks :-)
