Bill, Thanks for the welcome. Here is my current setup. My Current Setup Front L/R: Klipsch KLF 20’s Center: Klipsch KSF-C5 Surrounds: Vandersteen 1’s Rear L/R: Boston Acoustics Micro 120X ç I know, I know, sorry. These are what I'm replacing. Subwoofers : 1 Dayton Sub-120 HT + 1 Boston Acoustics PV700 12” sub Receiver: Denon 3311CI I was also a little vexed when I recently swapped the C5 with a KEF IQ60c. I bought the KEF at a garage sale for a steal and put it in place of the Klipsch. I put the Klipsch back as my center channel after several AB tests against the KEF IQ60 center. The KEF is much better in the low to mid ranges. Using Rambo - The Fight Continues as a reference, you can feel the thump thump of the jeep mounted high caliber machine gun with the KEF, but it barely registers with the Klipsch C5. By contrast, the Klipsch outperforms in the high frequency ranges which was highlighted in House of Flying Daggers. It starts in scene 3 when the heroine has to prove she's blind. Before the "Blind Woman Drum Circle Challenge", her "madame" takes a breath standing behind a curtain of beads. The breath she takes is so clear with the Klipsch C5, I can almost smell what she ate for breakfast. Same scene with the KEF and the breath the madame takes is barely there. I believe the high frequency difference is due to the 6inch horn tweeter in the Klipsch. Which Klipsch center can deliver the great mid's along with the high's. -mprice33

Hi everybody, I'm upgrading my rear surrounds. Which would you choose, Synergy B-20's or RB-41 II's? Thanks, Signed Mprice33 (The Noob)
