plissken99 Posted July 25, 2014 Share Posted July 25, 2014 I'm about to get a pair of kpt-904's to start my new "pro" set up. I'll still need a third for the center and either kpt-8's or 12's for surrounds, haven't decided yet. In thinking of the future with Dolby Atmos, I'm thinking a 13 or 15 channel set up will be ideal. The ceiling speakers will be a set of front heights, side heights and rear heights. I'm wondering if I can get away with the reference series Klipsch CDT-5800-C II speakers. However I have a feeling the better match would be the KL7502THX Ultra2. Question is will they be $600 per speaker better? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But that's with them pretty close to the lp. I think output is the biggest thing to think about. If your sides and back are a good distance away I would stay with the pro stuff. For the celling I don't know. Bill Hendrix son had 3 kpt904s for sale if you are still looking. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
plissken99 Posted July 29, 2014 Author Share Posted July 29, 2014 (edited) I'm about to get a pair of them, but still need a third for the center. The guy I'm buying them from says he knows another guy who should be selling a pair soon, he and I would each buy one, we both need centers. However a bird in the hand... where is the guy with three? Whats he asking? And would he be willing to sell just one? The ceiling speakers are a ways off anyway, plenty of time to ponder that. For surrounds I like the VBATS, trying to decide between the 8's or the 12's, I'm thinking the 8's might be all I'd need.
