ANDREW HENSON Posted January 22, 2002 Posted January 22, 2002 Do they sell as a pair or are they individual? i can't get answer anywhere. do they ever sell quintet 5 piece with center channel? any help would be appreciated how do 5 sats sound compared to center channel? Quote
QUiKSR20 Posted January 22, 2002 Posted January 22, 2002 I bought a pair from UBID and my experience was good. You have to bid on 2 to get a pair atleast thats what it said when i bought them a month ago. I would imagine its the same now. i got 2 for 89 Shipped and they came in one box factory sealed so my guess is you still have to bid on 2 to win a pair. ------------------ Thanks, Daryl Gregg MY Home Theatre Page Sony STR-DE975 HT Reciever Sony DVP-NS400D DVD SB-3 Mains SC-1 Center Quintet Rears KSW-12 Sub AR Proseries Interconects Quote
Malcolm Posted January 22, 2002 Posted January 22, 2002 Don't know about uBid, but you can find singles and pairs of the Quintet satellite lots of places online. Quintet center is near impossible to find except as part of the complete Quintet package. A Quintet satellite will work just fine in its place if you don't require the center channel form factor.

edster00 Posted January 22, 2002 Posted January 22, 2002 Hello Andrew, welcome to the BB! I have been watching Klipsch speakers on uBid for over a year. I have never seen them sell a the complete Quintet (5 piece) system. Ubid only sells Quintets by the pair (so far). I have never seen a Quintet center channel there, only KSC-C1 and KLF-C7's. Good luck! ------------------ Ed W Quote
ANDREW HENSON Posted January 22, 2002 Author Posted January 22, 2002 thanks for help. i want 5 speakers 2 front 2 rear 1 center do i bid on 3 ? 3*2=6 or do i bid on five? sounds stupid but i don't understand Quote
edster00 Posted January 22, 2002 Posted January 22, 2002 At uBid you have to buy them buy Quintets buy the pair. Your bid price will be per speaker but they require you to buy two speakers. A $39 bid will cost you $78 + shipping/handling. To get 5 Quintets you need to buy 6 of them at uBid (you will get the Klipsch factory warranty). There are folks at ebay who sell them in sets of 5 sometimes, but I don't believe you will have the Klipsch factory warranty (no matter what the seller leads you to believe). ------------------ Ed W Quote
oogins Posted January 22, 2002 Posted January 22, 2002 Where can you find single satellites? I'm trying to get one so I can have a 7.1 setup. Right now I have 5 satellites and the center. Quote
Porsche Posted January 22, 2002 Posted January 22, 2002 You should use eBay to buy the complete system. It's called the Klipsch (Synergy Series) Quintet Microtheatre. It comes with 4 Satellite speakers and 1 Center channel. Here's a few sets currently being auctioned: http://cgi.ebay.com/aw-cgi/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=1324541988 http://cgi.ebay.com/aw-cgi/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=1325512921 If you just want the Center, here's an auction JUST for the Center(it's an outrageous price though in my opinion, and I can't believe 3 people have actually bid on it): http://cgi.ebay.com/aw-cgi/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=1325440209 I'd probably do a little more shopping if I were you. I'd start off with TWO MAIN speakers (FRONTS), and then work your way up to a CENTER, and then buy TWO SURROUNDS - but buy HIGHER END Klipsch speakers. The Quintet are okay, but you may quickly desire a more full-range system.

dougdrake2 Posted January 23, 2002 Posted January 23, 2002 Porsche's point is a good one, that if you are looking for good music reproduction as well as Home Theater, if you can swing it, step up to the Synergy System 6 from Klipsch. The Quintets do nice on movies, but will leave you feeling cheated on music... Doug ------------------ My System Quote
Guest BobG Posted January 23, 2002 Posted January 23, 2002 FWIW, neither of the E-bay auctions sell product that is covered by Klipsch warranty. Quote
