Is this what is generally done? 7.1 setups have two pairs of "surround" speakers?

I have an Onkyo 606 and currently have a 5.1 setup: - Front Speakers are Polk RTi38 - Center Speaker is Polk csi30 - Surround Speakers are Polk FXi30 - Klipsh Sub I'm am contemplating whether I should purchase 2 additional rear speakers to upgrade to a 7.1 setup. If I decide to do this...

Brent S, I'm also not quite sure if I understand full range vs. crossed over (I'm sorry, my questions are endless)

and by the way, Brent S, you were right, the surrounds are FXi30s

David Willow, I can't imagine it's a speaker. I had these same speakers hooked up to my Denon for 6 years and they were working fine (I never had this problem) up until I hooked up my Onkyo 606.

Brent S, thanks so much for taking all of this time to help me! I just measured the distance from each speaker to where I'm sitting, here are the measurements: Center 9’11” Front Right 11’3” Front Left 11’5” Surround Right 4’3” Surround Left 17’3” Unfortunately, because of the layout...

I found the model number on my front speakers (RTi38), here's a link: RTi38 Product Page : High Performance Bookshelf Loudspeaker : Polk Audio. The pdf file on this website says "compatible with 8 Ohm Outputs." My center is the "csi30". Here's a link: CSi30 Product Page : Center Channel...

sorry, I meant to ask: what is Dynamic EQ? I'm not sure what Polks I have, I bought them years ago, is there anyway to verify?

Brent S, what i Dynamic EQ and how do you shut it off? I'm very new to all of this.

Hey Guys. I redid the wiring on the 27th (some wiring was indeed exposed) and the receiver appeared to be operating properly (I left it on for a couple of hours and it didn't shut off). I then went away on vacation for a week and a half. When I got back yesterday, it started shorting out...

BTW, it only happens when I watch blu-rays in my PS3. I can watch cable TV as loud as I want and it never shuts down.

I just hooked my new Onkyo 606 to my 5.1 speakers (polk audio speakers and klipsch sub). I previously had a Denon 1802 hooked up to these same speakers and never had a single problem with the receiver through out the 6 and a half years that I owned my Denon and speakers. Now EVERYTIME I play...

Hey guys. I have a panny plasma and a PS3. I currently have my PS3 and cable box each hooked up to my plasma via this HDMI cable from amazon: Amazon.com: HDMI Cable 2M (6 Feet): Electronics As you can see this cable is extremely cheap, but I'm not sure if it's version 1.3. I just bought...

What do you guys think is the best receiver I can get for $400?

Sanjay, I took your advise and bought a PS3. Now I just have to decide what type of new receiver I should buy to get lossless audio via HDMI. This is going to be a VERY tough decision.
