Wow, two threads about this in my tenure here and not a single response, it's hard to believe not a single person has any advice to offer when recommended height for surrounds is higher than ear level :frowning:

The best thing I have found are these: http://www.raxxess.com/product.asp?ID=577 Anyone have any experience with this company???

I am about to purchase the Klipsch RF-82 package with RS-52 and RB-81 as surrounds. I was wondeirng if anyone has any links, ideas, etc as to where I can find some 42" to 48" speaker stands to accomodate these surround speakers? I'm talking about some sturdy, heavy, good qualtity stands; not...

Based on my auditions I like the sound of 7.1 dipoles better than having direct radiating in the rear. That law that if the exact sound is coming from multiple locations, the closest will be heard really applies as thats how I hear direct radiating rears. I really don't need 7.1 but I have a...

Since these Klipsch RS-52s are essentially tri-poles in that they have direct radiating as well as dipoles, I wonder if that will help compensate. I really only have a one-time shot with this since the supplier I am getting them from is through my work and they don't actually stock the speakers...

I have decided on my setup for my new house and it is as follows: Klipsch 2 x RF-82 1 x RC-62 4 x RS-52 I have auditioned and I really like the sound versus other companies such as Def Tech, etc. Plus, I can get a really good deal on all of them, further sweetening the deal :) Now...

Ah, Phil, was waiting for you to chime in on this : ) Hehe...while we have you here, I was wondering if you could give me some advice, seeing that you're the resident JBL expert : P About a year ago I bought a pioneer 45tx from a forum member and also got a sweet deal on the NSP1s ($180 from...

Thanks for the response. Maybe I should just bite the bullet and get the Omnimount/Furniture Works RB-1s as I am sans drill press. From what I can tell I think someone here has used them out of the box with the N24s but am not 100% sure. And there's nowhere near me that carries these. If the...

Does anyone know if the Sanus HTB3 speaker stands are compatible with the JBL N24s? http://www.amazon.com/exec/obidos/AS...380221-3702550

Anyone? : )

From what I've read it seems I can use the Omnimount RB-1 floorstands on the N24s from my NSP1 but nothing I've read has been real clear cut. Can I indeed use the Omnimount RB-1s with my N24s without using velcro or anyof that? The RB-1s come with 3 different connections to choose from. Does...

Maybe if your lucky there's a number in the manual that you could call to find out the component bandwidth since pelican is being so parsimonious with their information.

Hey...anywhere in the manual does it state the component bandwidth specifically? I tried a few different places to see if they'd let me open one but no one was so daring : )

right, I'm just getting the NSP1s for now due to space constraints and the fact that they're only $200. Rest assured I will be getting bigger speakers eventually when I have something that remotely resembles a living room : )

The NSP1's accept banana plugs, correct? What brands of speaker wire can I get with banana plugs already on the ends that are good from, say, best buy? Thanks! P.S. Doy you have something that alerts you whenever NSP1 is in a post? : )

Hi, I'm planning on purchasing the JBL NSP1 speaker set and was wondering if it comes with speaker wire. If it does, is it good quality or should I buy other cables? I will be pairing it with a Pioneer 45TX. How are Ixos or Accoustic Research for speaker wire? Thanks!

Anyone know the Component bandwidth of the Pioneer 53TX? From what I chave read it seems there is only one component in. Is this true? Also, will the RS-232 ports i.e. 45 TX ever be used for anything?

Looking to purchase a Pioneer 45TX if anyone has one. Preferably within the warranty period and all that other jazz that adds value to a used purchase. As a comparison, I can get a new one shipped for $700 from the next state over. Thanks! P.S. How annoying is not having the OSD through...

Hey, Did you eventually sell this or no? If not, what are you asking for it now. I can get it for $675 in the next state over, which isn't far. Thanks!

Does the 45tx have a fan? Also, how is the Component switching i.e. # of ins and bandwidth? Is $675 a good price? Thanks!

If a receiver can decode DTS-ES i.e. Denon 2803, does that mean it can decode DVDs that have DTS-ES Matrix AS WELL AS DTS-ES Discreet, or does it have to have extra processing capability to decode the 6.1 Discreet track properly? I've been looking to purchase one and the "official" specs state...

Thanks Phil! What's the difference between having 2 96/24 DACs per channel i.e. 2803 or 1 192/24 DAC per channel i.e. 3803? Does it have something to with the A/B switching? Thanks!

Throughout my endless perusing of these forums I read a post at some point that suggested Denon receivers were not a good match for the JBL NSP1 speaker package but I can't find it now to re-affirm what I read. Is this true? Or would a 2803/3803 really be a good match for these speakers? I'm now...

What is the difference between a Refurbished and B-Stock receiver? Thanks!

I know little about "reference level" Would I be able to listen to movies at this level with the sytem I proposed a few posts up? Assume I would be using the HK 325, 43tx, or 4ES

I've demoed the 4ES and HK but I'm so new to this that I can't really tell the difference. I recently came across the 43tx but haven't got to demo it. My reasoning for asking for thoughts on this is that after I own a receiver for awhile I want to be able to tell what makes a receiver what and...

So I upped my budget a bit and have read almost every thread concerning the HK AVR-325, Pioneer 43TX, and Sony 4ES and I think I want to choose between the HK and Pioneer. Everytime I think I've reached a decision I read something that sways me back. This will predominantly be for home theater...

Yeah, I thought about the 525 but I hate fan noise and that unit apparently gets really loud and thinks it's hot all the time. Just not something I want to deal with for 2o watts more per channel I don't need : )

Yeah, the price has gone down in the big retail sector but not anywhere else since last year, save that OneCall deal. As for Circuit City, they're really good at price matching as long as it's not momandpop.com or something. Especially if the online price is from an authorized dealer. If the...

I know OneCall had the HK AVR-325 receiver for a great price in July before they abruptly ended the promotion. Any of you insiders heard about a potential price drop for this unit soon? How often does HK update their lineup with new models? Most companies do it in the fall so I'm sort of hoping...
