quintet sats for front speakers????

[jwatson364]

im thinking about building a setup in my bedroom with a C-1 center and two quintet 3 sats for fronts, combined with my 12in sub....

my question is how will the quintet 3 sats hold up as fronts????

any advise greatly appreciated!!!

I think it would be fine in a room the size of a bedroom, especially with your sub. You can't expect extreme volume but I would guess it should do just fine.

I have some Quintet's but it's either the original or the ll version, they were in a bedroom at one time and they did fine, really better than I had expected.

What you purpose is almost on par with Promedia 5.1s (Ultras).

My system is great in the bedroom for movies; and adequate for music.... (PM 2.1s sounded a bit better IMHO).

MY point? You should be fine; but do not expect the world...... Those sats can not do mid low bass..... (must be crossed properly; ~120hz)

Good Luck!

if not the quintets whatcha think about RB41 II BLACK, they are reference series bookshelfs....???

Those are a step up in overall soundstage.

Honestly; Klipsch does not make a bad speaker. (IMHO).

My advice would be if you are going that direction.....

Seek used instead of new...... You can find as good or better used for 1/2 price of new.

Every item in my siggy was used. I paid 40% of new or better....... (My receiver was ~$900 new; I paid $150; Heresies $250; $1200 new; etc....)

Good Luck.
