I am wondering about the music quality using a HTiB system, I mean, for a $100 or so more, you can get an Onkyo TX SR608 & Energy 5.1 Take Classic speakers for around $600 or so total. I'm wondering if the A/V units are worth comparing...Have any of you made the purchase and what is the outcome? Thanks

Hey Slater, I pretty much have the same setup you just described, got the Son STRDG 720 last week and just purchased these speakers today. Which speakers do you think would be a good purchase to convert this system into 7.1? I have two large polk bookshelves at home although they are a bit old, what do you think?

I just bought the Sony 920 to go with a Klipsch Quintet III 5-speaker surround system and a Polk PSW110 subwoofer. I am VERY happy. It's the best sound I've ever had. The Quintet III's are on the low end for power and price, but they are still outstanding speakers.

I replaced a Velodyne which originally sold for $2500 years ago and the Klipsch does an great job in a large living room.I am not familiar with the other brands except Polk which I use for outside speakers.

In order to use these speakers you need to buy a stereo receiver. There are many available. I bought a Yamaha rxv 373, w two Pyle pcb3bk speakers and spent less than $200. I already owned a JBL Northridge e series 10 inch 150 watt subwoofer from a previous application. W these purchases combined, I have a really nice system for minimal $ Once you have these things in place you then use a hdmi cable to connect the receiver to the TV.

I went with the Polk Audio RM6750 5.1 set. Plenty of volume, no distortion, nice range and they look great. They're currently going for $258 here on Amazon. If you search a bit you can find them for $200 somewhere else (hint: egg). These speakers are good. For $200 they're a steal. There are better speakers out there, but none that I know of that are better for the price.

I'm not familiar with the Yamaha. I have been using Pioneer Elite receivers for my home theater set up since I switched from separate amps and processors many years ago. Never had a problem with any of them. Some of the old units I gave to family members are still going strong.

Just finished setting up my 507 over the weekend, it sounds great, love it for the price, it should enough power for most of the home theather system. It support 5.1 only, if you want 7.2 then should go with the 607. I had been research, compare the similar features and price range receiver such as Yamaha, Denon, Sony, etc, and read a lot of customer review, I finally settle with the 507, I am not regret at all. Good luck.

Personally I have klipsch. Can't speak for JBL. Great digital amp. Had it for 3 months and love it.

Good speaker cables will connect to your receiver. I find the sound of these Bose 301 speakers outstanding. They fill the room with wonderful sound. I do not know about the computer to receiver hookup. Try the "HELP" of the receiver manufacture.

Michael is correct, but if you're looking for particular brands to be suggested you can't go wrong with pairing JBL speakers with Harman Kardon receivers. I've been a fan of Harman Kardon for awhile and I will either get their receivers or Denon. Denon is a bit pricey, but either will do. And like Michael said...you can pair it with any 5.1 surround sound system of your choice.

Hello... When matching speakers you want to get the specs close. Klipsch F-20, very nice speaker by the way. Frequency Response 38Hz-23KHz 3dB SENSITIVITY: 95.5dB @ 2.83V / 1m Polk Audio CS10 Center Frequency Response 53Hz-25kHz SENSITIVITY 91 dB The Klipsch will be a little louder then the Polk with a little wider frequency response. Your Yamaha receiver can adjust the center channels out put to blend in the center a little more so you can hear it. Also you want to look at the RMS watts. Polk is 125watts RMS. Klipsch is only 100watts RMS. Yamaha RX-V375 AV is 100watts per channel, 70watts RMS x 2 channel. So the out come, you should be fine. your mids and highs will be better with the Klipsch towers. You will have a little more lows from the Polk, but that could make the vocals from the center channel sound more natural. Also your receiver can adjust if you use the microphone to self adjust instead of doing it by ear. It will be fine.. Should sound good and I think you would be happy..

No they don't have to be the same brand. I did alot of research and I purchased Klipsch bookshelf speakers for mine. My research found Klipsch to be #1 rated and all the reviews I read were positive. I purchased mine from Hh Gregg and got them for $99 each. They are awesome for such a small speaker.

You only need to look at RMS power for 8 ohms. Klipsch speakers are rated at 8 ohms and are very sensitive too so you won't have any problem driving them with 100 watts per channel. I use a denon 3313ci with my Klipsch RF-62 5.1 setup and it sounds great. Make sure you aDr a good subwoofer too. The best addition to my surround system is my SVS PB2000. I can't believe the difference it made.

Definitely a better speaker than the Infinity and Klipsch. I would not but Klipsch because their speakers tend to miss out on mid-range. The Polks will work better with higher end receivers and will shine with separate amplifiers.

Have done all this, but how do I get 5.1 sound from the external source? Sound only coming through the front speakers. What input should I be using on the receiver to get 5.1 sound from the external source? TIA.
