The way I figure it is the WORST that can happen is I put my NHT's back in the attic and just go with the Def Techs and Polks. How awful could that be?

Decided to go with the following setup: Mains: NHT SuperOne xu Center: NHT VS1.4 Sub; NHT SWS2i 2nd set of mains: Def Tech AW6500 Rear: Polk Audio Atrium 4 Yes, I know these are mismatched. The NHT speakers I have had laying around for many years and they will be very well under cover...

Thanks to all who responded! I keep going back and forth in my head - I keep getting more and more confused every day! One thing that strikes me as passing strange is that outdoors is the most demanding environment one could put a loudspeaker in, yet the makers all stick to the bookshelf form...

Thanks for your feedback. Have you auditioned any of them? I've looked at those Atrium speakers and they get good reviews and certainly appear to be high quality. And I have own a pair of Polk R15's, so I'm not unfamiliar with Polk speakers. But it sure would be nice to hear from someone...

Sounds like either a rub or a blown voice coil - when you tried the different amp, are you certain that that second amp hit the same frequencies/SPL you were hitting with the first amp?

I'm in, hopefully, the end stage of putting a pool into my backyard. Excavation began at the end of June and it's been a bit of a rocky road. Hurricane Harvey didn't help matters any, but we have a shell, coping/tile, and a poured concrete deck. I've been jonesing a bit lately (sitting...

In doing a little research at J&R's site, I found the HK 3380 for about $230 and the HK 3480 for about $300. I'm strongly leaning toward one of these at the moment, as I have had excellent experience with my HK AV7200 HT receiver.

Dan, I'd like to limit it to $300 or less. The Polks are looking for between 20-100 watts at 8 ohms.

I'm having to replace the old Kenwood receiver in my garage which has just died. I'm looking for a 2 channel only integrated amp or receiver which will power 4 speakers. I'm looking for recommendations for this replacement, and here are my criteria: 1) Solid power handling (driving Polk...

I'm looking to replace the ancient Pioneers in the rear deck of my even more ancient Camry and was hoping for some suggestions. I have a 40w (well, that's what Clarion claims anyway) head unit and, at least for the moment, not planning to add an amp. I'm looking for solid all-around performance...

I'm curious. Just how on earth is it illegal for a reseller to buy product from an authorized dealer and then sell it themselves? What law is broken by that? I realize that defacing the serial number might constitute fraud against the buyer, not against Klipsch. But I do not see how it could...
