tony61 Posted March 20, 2002 Share Posted March 20, 2002 Hey guys and ladies, First off let me say that this site is one of the most informative and interesting on the web. I've just upgraded to klipsch and all I can say is WHAT? I CAN'T HEAR YOU! These things are incredible! All I'm looking for now is your expert opinion on the sensibility of my purchase in regards to sonic matching and receiver quality. my system: KSB 3.1'S IN FRONT KSC-C1 CENTER SS-1'S IN BACK TWO (2) YAMAHA YST-SW160 150 WATT DUAL 8" SUBS, ONE IN FRONT AND ONE IN BACK Also, the "ks" series speakers have a metal grill. does this adversely affect the sound, should I leave them off? And lastly, the velcro pads on the SS1's grill and the Klipsch logo on the KSC-C1 have come off. How do I go about getting replacements? Thanks in advance for your help.

QUiKSR20 Posted March 21, 2002 Share Posted March 21, 2002 Hey Tony .. Welcome to the forum. As for leaving the metal grills on or off I think thats up to personal preference I dont think it will affect the sound I could be wrong but personally I think youll be fine. Recievers theres alot out there some will make your ears bleed with klipsch and some will sound beautiful. Most around here will recommend either of the following brands. Denon Harmon Kardon Outlaw Onkyo Yamaha My personal opinion I like the top 3 the best and the outlaw 1050 www.outlawaudio.com Is amzing for its $499 price Its just a little dated with its bells and whistles but will do 6.1 As for your parts question and the grills you can call Klipsch Parts and order new parts. Customer Service - 1-800-554-7724 Hope this helps and good luck with your setup youll probaly end up owning more klipsch then you want and spend late nights bs'in on the forums ( there nothing wrong with that is there guys? ) ------------------ Thanks, Daryl Gregg MY Home Theatre Page Sony STR-DE975 HT Reciever Sony DVP-NS400D DVD SB-3 Mains SC-1 Center Quintet Rears KSW-12 Sub X-BOX w/Advanced AV Pack AR Proseries Interconects This message has been edited by QUiKSR20 on 03-21-2002 at 04:44 PM Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Audio Flynn Posted March 22, 2002 Share Posted March 22, 2002 The 3.1 were my first home Klipsch speakers. In my opinion they would sound better with the grill off. With 4 kids 2 dogs and 3 cats in the house it is a very robust grill to keep the woofer safe. They are now my rears and RB 5s are my fronts. The RB 5s grill stays out of the way of the music, but is considerable more frajile. It would be interesting to get Bob or Klipsh administrators opinion of the metall grill. It seems to be only rarely used on a Klipsch speaker. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
