I'm looking to shuffle some equipment around at home and find myself looking for recommendations (and offers if applicable) for a nice used receiver to drive a pair of Klipschorns in a 2.1 channel Features it must have: - Excellent with music - Phono preamp - Subwoofer output (with built in crossover) - Cost less than 450$ Since I don't need video switching, or any surround modes... I'm thinking that for that money I should be able to get an excellent, older, obsolete, Dolby HT unit. What models would you guys recommend? ROb PS: I would consider separates if the combined price falls into that range.

A very slippery slope it is.... [:$]

Happy 49th MC... Didn't realize the longest active member listed here is Tony Reed who is listed as 1999/06/12 .... []

It's the people that keep us coming back.... []

thanks... []

Here you go, an updated picture.... seems like it's been a long time since i posted a picture.... but still have some work to do (new center + refinish mains) as well as I have a couple additional pieces coming in.... ROb

My outboard subwoofer amp is plugged into the "amp" pass through of my power conditioner for surge protection...

As in sprayed on polyurethane insulation? If so, just a side note, you'll have to verify local building codes if you are considering leaving the it exposed on the inside... as it is not permitted by our local fire code.

Try the search feature on www.projectorcentral.com web site.... i agree you need a relatively bright unit so stay away from the HT units that sacrifice brightness for accuracy (ie: stick to the buisness units)... check out the features you like at http://www.projectorcentral.com/buyers_guide.htm and then give their search engine a whirl. I've seen a couple of Dell rebates recently that made their unit pretty inexpensive (dell canada though).... ROb

two words Paper Weight ...

[:#] The way i see it... there'll be alot of lucky guys... [] ROb

lol... given our population... i think we outnumber you guys percentage wise... [] guess we get bored in our cold winters and talk shop and watch movies...

Nice meeting you too Terry...welcome to forum... As you will see, it's a pretty friendly family on here. Actually there are a couple of montrealers who post regularly... including myself (klipsch heritage) from the east island... theEAR (klipsch reference) from central... and Kudret (klipsch heritage) also west island. Then there are a couple of guys just south of the border... like frzinvt... etc... [] ROb

Michael, did you ever get around to taking / posting an intimate photo shoot of a 60anv khorn? I'm really curious on the detailing... and how the top hat sits on the bottom (without a spacer?). Is the bass cabinet taller (1/2" or 3/4") to include the lowest "home plate"? ROb

I'm actually using both those techniques as i power both my subwoofers with pro-amps. QSC,no longer offers the "quiet fan" kit... but you can do it yourself using an after market unit (although it "technically" voids the warranty)... and it is still lightly audible.

It is important to note that the PLX series is fan cooled (as are most pro amps), and therefore it will be audible in a quiet room.

these T's su¢k... i didn't order one of these "only available to american customer" tee shirts cause they don't come in small... [6] Ditto... PLEASE... no bikinis for these guys...

I used "Same Day Right of Way" www.sameday.ca to ship a pair if Klipshorns (on a palette) from Winnipeg to Montreal ... as well as a some large (5'x4'x8") electronics from Vancouver to Montreal. Worth calling them for a quote... ROb

Like these?... As I mentioned in a email to Greg, mine are also up for trade as i no longer use these as a center channel and would like to go back to the K22 muds like would have been originally in there. Obviously i don't want to cut in though... [:$]

I'm pretty sure it wasn't just the ladies who were ROFL.... [] .... let me know next time you have one of these parties... []

ummm... did any of this involve alcohol and a pole, horizontal or vertical? ... and the plot thickens... [:|] have you ever wonder why you've had that many adversaries? [:^)] ... but i'm sure if you showed a pic of it to your doc, he'd ok it... [8-|]

Mike... don't think i don't feel for you... BUT.... i can't believe no one picked up on: ummm.... shirtless dance?? what happened to the shirt.... you forgot where you left it? [] it's not like a set of keys, you know.... [8-)] Oh... and for the posture... you still got that "lazy boy" computer chair? .... yeah.... it's gotta go.... ROb

Ditto... and including a "don't ask" only begs the question even more. I'm think mosh or hardcore dancing? [:|]

As far as i know, "Layne" has gone missing in action... leaving you Klipsch, or maybe BEC has some older ones in stock...
