JSChapman Posted April 15, 2009 Share Posted April 15, 2009 Ya that's right I'm back at it again. I'm on the hunt for more cherry Klipsch! The reason behind this is because I just sold my Polk audio rear speakers on craigslist so, the money from that sale is going toward my new surrounds. Now with out getting into the whole discussion of WDST or direct radiating(since it really doesn't matter for me). Is it possible to find Klipsch Synergy B2's in cherry? If not I still want B2's for surrounds. I'll try to find and add a photo. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JSChapman Posted April 16, 2009 Author Share Posted April 16, 2009 Wow, you found that fast. Thanks for the link I will definitely check it out. I took your advice on getting rid of the Polk's so, if I can get them it would be an awesome match to my front Cherry F2's. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JSChapman Posted April 16, 2009 Author Share Posted April 16, 2009 The link keeps sending me to Vann's website and they seem to no longer stock them. I haven't given up yet so, the hunt continues. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tommyboy Posted April 16, 2009 Share Posted April 16, 2009 NM, you're right. When you try to checkout it does take you to Vann's.... Look on Ebay Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JSChapman Posted April 16, 2009 Author Share Posted April 16, 2009 I think that's where I'm headed next. Unless someone here on the forum's has a pair they want to sell? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tommyboy Posted April 17, 2009 Share Posted April 17, 2009 Don't think I've seen anyone on here with them......... Trey? You got the hook up on these? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JSChapman Posted April 19, 2009 Author Share Posted April 19, 2009 I haven't given up my search for a pair of Cherry B2's just yet but, it's starting to look nearly impossible. I am going to post a WTB in the Garage section and see if I get more hits there. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JSChapman Posted April 19, 2009 Author Share Posted April 19, 2009 Okay so after reading a countless amount of old post's today on the debate of WDST or bookshelf speakers for surrounds I decided to go with a pair of S1's. According to everyone here on the forums that was the right way to go. So, I put up a Bid on Ebay and got pair of S1's for under $100 bucks. Pretty good deal I think. Oh and Tommyboy I do really appreciate your help in trying to find a pair of Cherry B2's. Though according to some of your older posts you prefer the S1's over the B2's so, I think I made a good decision. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tommyboy Posted April 20, 2009 Share Posted April 20, 2009 Since I couldn't post the pic in the PM....... here's how mine are set up....... Mains are about 7' apart, surrounds about 10'........... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tommyboy Posted April 20, 2009 Share Posted April 20, 2009 Ya, I tried the B2's, and IMO it sounded a lot worse than the S1's, so.............. No problem with the hunt bro! Another problem with bookshelves is placement. With our room setup the way it is now, there is absolutely nowhere to put bookshelves. Right under each surround is end tables. But for surrounds, you made the right choice. WDST is the way to go.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JSChapman Posted April 20, 2009 Author Share Posted April 20, 2009 Oh okay. I was thinking you had them on the side up against the back wall. How do they sound on the back wall? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tommyboy Posted April 20, 2009 Share Posted April 20, 2009 IMO, the same as they did when they were on the sides. If mounting them on the sides is possible in your room, by all means, mount them like that, but if not, my setup sounds great Our room was basically 180'd. The wall where the couch is is where the TV/entertainment center was, and vise versa. The right main and Sub 12 were too close to that door in the pic, and I wasn't very fond of the doggie always bumping into it, so we "flipped' the room around. I thought I'd lose a lot of sound from the S1's, but like I said, they sound about the same; although I did have to turn the db's up a little bit on my surround levels.......

JSChapman Posted April 20, 2009 Author Share Posted April 20, 2009 If mounting them on the sides is possible in your room, by all means, mount them like that Ya I can mount them on the side or on the back wall. Side mounting is preferred and I think I have a pretty good spot for them. My room is 10x12x8 and I sit fairly close to the back wall but, the S1's can still be mounted in the ideal position.

tommyboy Posted April 20, 2009 Share Posted April 20, 2009 And I thought my room was small! Ya, I say put em on the sides at about 5' up............. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It works though and since I'm still living with the folks I can't complain too much. LOL Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tommyboy Posted April 20, 2009 Share Posted April 20, 2009 I hear that brother! My room is bigger than I thought though. I would have guessed about 10*15; but I measured it, and it's 13*18............. now all you need is a Sub 12 to drive your folks mad!

JSChapman Posted April 20, 2009 Author Share Posted April 20, 2009 now all you need is a Sub 12 to drive your folks mad! Check my, Is it worth the MONEY? thread and you will see where I am headed next. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
