    Hooking up a Klipsch KSW-15 to a Denon 2802

    I guess my ears are different. The KSW-15 allows for LFE input as well as line input. I'd suggest using both. When all I used was the LFE, it seemed that my CDs didn't have the bass I wanted. I ran the LFE and the line outputs from my 3802 to the KSW-15. I've also found that keeping the...

    Denon AVR 3802 shuts down?

    Hello all, My Denon AVR 3802 has a tendency to shut down when I'm playing a movie at >65dB. I have to admit that where it's located doesn't allow much room for "breathing". Could it be that it's just overheating and going into a protection mode? Due to the lack of space, would it be...

    Klipsch RC3II center speaker

    Here is the word straight from Klipsch: "In a conventional horizontal, WTW (woofer, tweeter, woofer) center channel both woofers are in parallel (seeing the same signal) and respond up to the crossover frequency of say 2000 Hz where the horn tweeter takes over. The problem with this...

    Klipsch RC3II center speaker

    I got this from the Klipsch website concerning this speaker: "Tapered array technology allows both woofers to reproduce deep bass, while only one covers the lower midrange frequencies for clearer dialogue and more consistent coverage." I find this very strange, but maybe the RC3II was meant to...

    Klipsch RC3II center speaker

    I just realized last night that dialogue only seems to come from the 6.5" speaker on the right side and the horn. I could barely, if at all, hear anything from the left side speaker. Is this normal or did I get a bad RC3II? If it's normal, what is the left side speaker for...added bass or...

    LFE vs. Y input??

    I'm just curious as to whether there is a difference between hooking up your sub via the LFE input or using a Y adapter and hooking up to the "normal" input. I'm using a Klipsch KSW-15. It does seem to sound deeper when I go into the "regular" input than the LFE. When I get the Avia test...

    Klipsch?

    I just ordered the Avia home theater setup DVD. Hopefully I'll be able to solve the problems I've encountered with this. I know I haven't spent the time to setup the system properly. I'll buy the spl meter from Radio Shack to attempt to setup the system properly. I hope that does the trick...

    AVIA Note: Subwoofer Calibration

    OK, as a brand spanking newbie, do I connect my Denon AVR 3802's sub output to the LFE input of my Klipsch KSW-15 or use a Y-connector and input to the other inputs?

    Klipsch?

    My basic system consists of the following: + Denon AVR 3802 + Klipsch RF3II mains + Klipsch RC3II center + Klipsch RS3II surrounds + Klipsch KSW-15 subwoofer I'm VERY disappointed with the output of the subwoofer. My old DCMs with 12 in. woofers kicks this systems butt for bass and...

    Home Depot/RadioShack wire and cable

    I'm curious about the quality of my wiring. I purchased 250' of 12g wire from Home Depot for about $64. Is this considered pretty good wire for home audio/theater purposes? I've used it for car audio systems and have found that it will stand toe to toe with the best of them. I don't know...

    Equalizer use in home audio

    I've noticed there aren't a lot of posts concerning equalizer use. I just purchased a Denon AVR3802 along with an Audiosource EQ200. The Denon doesn't have a tape monitor loop, so I'm not sure how to install the EQ. My DVD player is also my CD player, so this poses an additional hassle. If...
