StanO Posted April 13, 2008 Share Posted April 13, 2008 I have upgraded from 430 cti to 1080p TV(Samsung LN-T4669FX). I wanted to explore the Blu-ray movie option that 1080 has, so I bought a Playstation 3 40 gig. Last night I watched my first HD movie,Resident Evil:Extinction and was surprised at how well it looked. Not to mention that it's a great movie. I am going with a Denon AVR-4308CI receiver. It's a true 7.1 with 140 watts per channel. It also equalizes the speaker placement on its own. When it comes to selecting 7.1 speakers, things go Grey for me. There is not much of a selection out there right now. I am looking at: Klipsch Quintet SL Home Theater{5.1), Synergy KSW12(subwoofer) and either a ceiling or wall in mount between the front and rear speakers. Klipsh SCW-2. Will this work,should I go with separate speakers all together? What are your recommendations? 18r StanO Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

wizop Posted April 14, 2008 Share Posted April 14, 2008 I have a very similar setup with an Onkyo 605 receiver. I started with a C-2 center and S-2 fronts even though they shouldn't be in front. I got them because I needed to wall mount the fronts and those were the best I could find locally. Eventually I got talked into moving the S-2's to the read and getting new fronts. Like you I needed ceiling mounts on the sides and went with the KHC-6 which you can find at Best-Buy. My subwoofer is a KSW-12 just like you are looking at. That's not the current model but it is making me happy and I bought it online at a substantial discount from Vann's. Which brings me to my fronts. I bought a pair of SLX wall mounts from Vann's. They are kind of the big brothers to the Quintet's you are looking at. Unfortunately a quick look at Vann's didn't show any. Maybe they sold out. They were a great buy at a little over $100 a piece. I see them on Amazon but for twice what I paid. If you could find the SLX for what I paid, you could get seven of them and add a sub and you'd be happy. I suppose you could call Vann's and see if they have any left. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest srobak Posted April 17, 2008 Share Posted April 17, 2008 Or buy from an authorized dealer ON eBay (Sound Distributors) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
StanO Posted April 17, 2008 Author Share Posted April 17, 2008 buy from an authorized dealer, not ebay. your right nezff, the guy is shipping the speakers as I write this,so his response is fine. But the poor guy that bought the house,purchased a sound system just to find out that the seller is willing to leave his with the house......has been doing this for years. How Manny houses is this guy buying??? I got a conformation on the sell/shipping thing and responded back wanting to know about, what kind of factory warranty I'll get with the speakers.

Moderators Youthman Posted April 17, 2008 Moderators Share Posted April 17, 2008 Unless you are buying them from an authorized dealer, it is my understanding that the Klipsch Warranty is not valid. Correct me if I am misunderstood. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brac Posted April 17, 2008 Share Posted April 17, 2008 I looked at the auction I am gonna guess no warranty, but only a guess. The auction says "This is a new, factory sealed, first run "A" stock unit purchased from and authorized dealer" let us know how it goes and what he says about warranty. When you get them post your serial #'s and one of the Klipsch people will tell you where they came from. Peace Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
