speakers?

Can anyone recommend in-ceiling rear surround speakers? max $100 per speaker. To be used in a 5.1 system, I have not picked other speakers yet, I thought I would start with the rears. I intend to use with a Pioneer VSX-1021-K (spec below) Power Output Per Channel(20Hz-20kHz,.08%[email protected]) 90...

I was given a nice pair of MB Quart PCK-116 speakers, complete with crossovers. They are 4 Ohm sets with fancy crossovers and positionable coaxial tweeters. These were designed for in-door auto applications. They lack punch and sound mushy just suspended in air. MB Quart does not publish...

I have been modelling these for use as surround as I can get them to go down to 30 Hz which suits a 60-80 Hz crossover to the sub. My question is if the box size is too large at 4 cu feet? :scratch:

Looking for some replacement speakers with 50mm drivers as I kinda want to build my own headphones. Anyone know of any or am I going to rig up something ungodly?

Hi guys, [Setup] I am new to surround sound and am trying to upgrade the surround sound in one of my rooms to a 7.1 channel system. I ordered (5) Polk RM7 speakers (one of them is a center) and the Yamaha V667 Receiver. I will most likely order this speaker stand for maximum height on my...

I was sitting here wondering if I should change my system from a traditional 7.1 to a 7.1 useing the front hieght speakers since I now have a reciever with that capability. I haven't seen much talk about people doing this and what they thought about it so I figured I would ask if some of you...

I'm installing a HT in a new paneled den and my better half doesn't want to put holes in the wall or have speakers or wires on the floor, etc. I have looked into a soundbar system, like the Polk 6000, and it's also been suggested that I buy the Artisan speakers that attach directly to the...

Hello, I was considering purchasing 3 Behringer Truth 2031P monitors to use as side surrounds and a center in a second setup. I have an Onkyo TX-SR702 with external amp driving mains and wanted to use the 702's amps to drive the 3 Behringers, the 702's spec sheet gives a dynamic or peak...

I have my living room wired up for 5.1 surround sound. I would like to have the speakers mounted in-wall. I have a budget of approximately $2500. I need a receiver, main speakers, center speaker, sub, and rear speakers. Any input would be very appreciated! Thank you!

I have upgraded to a Onkyo 807 , and now want to see about my speakers. Room is 15 widex18 long , it will be used for 99% movies , and 1% music. If what i suggest is a waste of money tell me that. I really want to go with small speakers in this room. I have seen a sale on the POLK RM75 set...

I have a pair of Pioneer CS-G305 3-way speakers with freq of 35-20kHz, impedance of 6 ohms, and power of 120w. I also have Sony SS-MB215, imp 8ohms and power of 140w. Which speakers would work best as front speakers? Would the other pair be usable as surround speakers? Thanks

I broke mine and really want another pair, but Yamaha doesn't make them anymore. Anyone know where I can go to repair them or buy them?

I no this doesn't apply to speakers made of paper but if the speaker is made of poly can it be painted? I know the surround shouldn't be but I was just thinking about the cone. If so would it matter what kind of paint is used? Thanks.

I'm looking at the Axiom in-wall/on-wall speakers for my living room (16'x20') music/HT set-up. WAF is the primary driving force here. The system will primarily be used for HT. Are there any in-walls I should consider for around the same price (about $1600 for LCR and 2 surrounds) that would...

I currently have a MOD2 Orb audio running my rear surrounds. The speakers have no crossovers, so I'm forced to use my receiver's crossover. I currently have them set at 80hz (which is the lowest recommended point). Since I have the crossover set at 80hz, all of my front channels are running this...

Right now I have direct firing speakers for my back center pair. Nothing fancy and they are pretty small. They are 18" apart and above listening position about 12 ". I recently purchased a pair of Wharfedale WH-2's to replace my Cambridge Soundworks bi-pole/di-pole side surrounds ( they have...

I can't seem to find a lot of info on these. And don't have the knowledge to know if they will be good speakers by looking at all the spec. numbers and charting them out. I am curious about the quality of the the 4" to 6.5" woofers from anyone who has done a build with these, what are your...

OK, I know this is a pretty polarizing topic, but I thought we could start a lively discussion. I have Era Design 5 bookshelf speakers in a 5.1 setup. They are pretty inefficient, 86dB, and are known to really like power. The owners advocate this very strongly. I cross my system over to a...

My home theater consists of the following: Display: Panasonic TH-42PW5 DVD Player: Harman Kardon DVD 30 A/V Receiver: Harman Kardon AVR 8500 Mains: Klipsch RF-7 Center: Klipsch RC-7 Surrounds: Klipsch RS-7 Subwoofer: None (Seaton Sound SubMersive on order) I setup my home theater back in 2004...

Are there any good plans for an outdoor 2 way speaker? Mainly the drivers are what I"m curious about. I can put enough paint or even plastic dip on the box to keep it water resistant the drivers are my main question. They would be housed under a porch roof so they should never get directly...
