Roger..how do u rate the JL audio Fathom f113?? will it work well with the klipsch THX subs inmy setup??am getting a great deal on that?? plz share ur thoughts

I took a leap of faith after talking to Trey Cannon.. Engineer with Klipsch. He swears about these for either stereo, or Home Theater. They sound musical, but also have a LOT of punch too!

They are just that good with the rest of the Klipsch lineup.

Stay with the KA 1000 amp, with the KW 120 subs, and get 2 of them too!

Do it right! I know I could say, "Just trust me!" But that is tough, you do not know me at all, but this THX system was created with THOSE THX subs in mind. So think about that a while, and get it right.

thanks Dr. who..

Indy, i definitely trust you mate..or else i would not ask for ur suggestions..thanks for ur inputs..i will stick to my THX subs..no way i wanna get rid of them...i was considering the JL fathom for the add on....looks like the wise thing to do is get a THX KA amp and a THX subwoofer....

By the way, i have ordered Auralex panels for my room acoustics...am eagerly waiting for them...

Viggnesh, you have a fun thread to read! The excitement of choosing and purchasing is a big part of the package, and I can tell you have enthusiasm about it!

I just bought the THX U2 front three about two months ago. I'm very pleased and can't wait to get all the other parts of the system.

I'm looking forward to detailed impressions and photos of the room. Don't abandon us!

Best wishes,

Tony

I just read this thread and was looking at the sub options. Currently run the Ultra II setup with the system subs, however don't feel I am getting the "wow" sound. I currently use a Pioneer Elite vsx 54, but just got the UPA-7 on closeout in an attempt to upgrade to separates. Was planning to keep using the Pioneer until I decide what to get for a pro/pre. I would like to get the Emotiva XMC when it comes out to match the amp, but also looking at the Marantz models. Will the upgrade to separates alone help my "wow" factor? Specifically with the subs?

ihave used quite a few subs and this pair gives me more than the wow feel...a few things to keep in mind....

the sub preout from the preamp/receiver is very important..and am sure either the emotiva or the marantz THX av 8003 will suffice..

trust me..not heard a better sub at this price

so -- my AVR could be the issue? A new processor could give me better bass? I thought the bass was driven by the KA-1000 amp...
