rayzak Posted December 11, 2003 Share Posted December 11, 2003 I am looking to purchase Klipsch surround speakers, and am wondering which surrounds would go best with my KSF 10.5 front speakers. I've tried to find SS-1's, but most places seem to be out of them. Should I stay in the Synergy series of speakers? Or can I pair the KSF's with surround speakers from another series (i.e. heritage or reference series?) Thanks, rayzak Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
M6 Driver Posted December 11, 2003 Share Posted December 11, 2003 Anybody think that the RS-25 would fit the bill? If you've got the room you could dable in 8.5's or 10.5's for the rear duty. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Soundthought Posted December 11, 2003 Share Posted December 11, 2003 Hello, I'm getting ready to downsize my RF7 HT to the following set up. KSF10.5s mains. KV-3 center. KSB1.1 surrounds. KSB1.1 surround backs. SW12II & SW8II subs. I feel that the KSB1.1 should fit the bill, nicely. I was going to use SB1s for surrounds but opted for the KSB1.1s instead. The main reason being that I have 2 pair of KSB1.1s and only 1 pair of SB1s. Since I truly enjoy 7 channel surround, my choices were limited with my smaller Klipsch speakers. If I ever get a bigger house, I want to try a 7 channel set up with Chorus 2s as mains, Forte 2s as surrounds, Quartets as surround backs, and then a single Chorus 2 as the center. That would be something..... Then again, when I get my Cornwalls, I might try a set up with those. Cornwalls-mains Chorus-surrounds Fortes-surround back KG4 pair as center??? Who knows??? That too, would be something. Of course, it's gonna be hard to beat my RF7, RC7, (4) RS7, 3 sub combo. Wow.....it's awesome. I'm going to miss them while they "take a break". Sniff.

T2K Posted December 11, 2003 Share Posted December 11, 2003 Why not buy the correct matching surrounds, the KSF-S5's? The 'correct' center is a KSF-C5. Both appear on E-Bay regularly. Keith Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cjvaldivia Posted April 13, 2004 Share Posted April 13, 2004 I am having that same question. I just spoke to customer service from Klipsch and they suggested to use the RC-35 from the Reference Series as your best match. I've tried the RC-25 but wasn't satisfied with the result. Well, another thing that I have is that I have to upgrade my receiver. The problem that I am having is that when watching a DVD-movie, the dialogues have a lower volume than the actual soundtrack coming from my 10.5s. Did you happen to decide on something?
