Pepperamip Posted January 5, 2020 Share Posted January 5, 2020 I've recently purchased a Pioneer LC LX-57 and I now want to incorporate this into my main system which will include my KG4.5s as main L R. I would prefer to match the centre as best i can but being in the UK means high shipping costs for a used KV1/2/3 (I can't even find a KGxxxV) Has anyone had any luck meshing a centre speaker and surrounds from another brand with their Klipsch KG as mains? If there is anyone wanting to sell a mint KV2/3 and ship it to me in blighty Id love to hear from you. What would you do if you was in this situation?

wuzzzer Posted January 5, 2020 Share Posted January 5, 2020 I would forgo the center. It's not a necessity. Properly set up, two front speakers can present a fantastic center image. I use Reference (RS-7)surrounds with Heritage (Heresy) mains with fantastic results. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pepperamip Posted January 5, 2020 Author Share Posted January 5, 2020 Do you know what I might just give that go. If it works with stereo why not with movies. I could always add a centre at a later date if required.Thanks for your input.Sent from my CLT-L09 using Tapatalk Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
billybob Posted January 6, 2020 Share Posted January 6, 2020 Welcome to the forum... Would try to locate some of the KG bookshelf speakers like the KG.5, .1,1.5, even a KG 2 for surrounds. The 2 may make a temporary center until you can locate one of those mentioned. KG 2.2v another 2.5 surrounds. Do you have a Phantom feature or equivalent on your unit? You can use this without a center. Of course, you can look for larger KG speakers to fill in the blanks. Here We do not Expect to pay much or too much for these.
