lucasd2002 Posted March 15, 2006 Share Posted March 15, 2006 OK, so it's not really a HT with just 2 speakers but it's on the way! I'm really excited!! I got a good deal on a pair of RF-15s (I realize they are bottom of the Ref line, but they are Ref). I also bought a HK AVR 340. I am now looking for a center channel, sub, and surrounds (probably in that order). I was thinking about center: maybe an RC-25 if I can find one in my price range sub: KSW10 or KSW12 surround: no ideas They will come, slowly but surely. I do not want to skimp on the center but the 25 may be overkill - I would like to hear some opinions. Thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lucasd2002 Posted March 15, 2006 Author Share Posted March 15, 2006 One thing I forgot - I was thinking about speaker connections- maybe banana plugs? what do people recomend? thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dirtraven Posted March 15, 2006 Share Posted March 15, 2006 Wires connectors, Banana on the receiver end and Spades on the speaker end, but Banana - Banana is fine too. I just like spade connectors on the speaker ends only because it looks cleaner with the way the wire come off as oppose to the bananas. Center is your next step for HT, then I would go sub, then surround speakers. Subwoofer, get the 12" if your budget and space can accomodate it. For movies, there is no such thing as too much bass! BTW, don't think you have bottom of line speakers, really doesn't matter, what matters is that you gonna have HT experience! Enjoy! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rplace Posted March 15, 2006 Share Posted March 15, 2006 Go with the RC-25 Center, because sooner or later (probably sooner) you will get bitten by the upgrade bug. So, down the road you can get RF-25s for mains and move the 15s to surround duty. You might just want to plan this as you buy the other parts. 1. 15s in front 2. 25 center 3. Sub 4. New 25s for mains moving the 15s to surrounds Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lucasd2002 Posted March 16, 2006 Author Share Posted March 16, 2006 Is there anything else comparable to the RC25 (in case I can't find one)? Also, is there a significant difference between the KSW10 and KSW12? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fletcherkane Posted March 16, 2006 Share Posted March 16, 2006 The KSW line has been discontinued. The new Synergy Sub 12 and the Sub 10 are huge steps above the old KSW's Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

wuzzzer Posted March 16, 2006 Share Posted March 16, 2006 Actually, the RF-10 is the bottom model. Just wanted you to feel better about your purchase! [] Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
