I just bought the HC-6's online for 399 + shipping. They are being driven by an H/K 230 and they sound good I'm still tweaking the sub placement to improve sound but for the cost I don't see how they can be beat. The forum won't let me post the web site but search for accessories4less dot com...
Thanks I hadn't thought of that. You're probabaly right though. I'll call the local provider and ask what channels are broadcast with digital audio. Mike
I just recived my H/K AVR-230 . The box is very versitile in the set up of different listening modes and speaker congigurations. For instance you can setup a different speaker configuration for each of your inputs. The reciever will automatically return to the setup for a given selected input...
Just received my H/K AVR-230 and it's great. I do have one issue. When I connect the digital cable box via video co-ax and digital co-ax for the audio portion I get the video but no audio. I have the video from the cable box to the "VID2" input and the digital audio connected to the "...
Bill, I've been shopping alot on the net, try JandR.com for the 130 or 230 my 230 (ran $380)no tax or shipping. If you want the 125 or 225 soundcity.com has refurbished AVR's for $199 and $240 repectively. Mike
Chris , I went with the 230 over the 225 for the added channel and the small cost difference . My HC-6's got here friday so I've been listening to them, even if only in stereo with the old amp. I think I made the right choice there . Like I said in the above post I'll report if I find anything...
Hi Rick, My new H/K 230 will arive tomorrow ... can't wait. I'm new to 5.1 ( upgrading from prologic) however if I find anything I like or don't like I'll post back to this thread. Mike
Ok guys and gals, I've decided to go with the Harmon/Kardon AVR225 and the H/K DVD-25 . Now I need a good 5.1 speaker system to complement the electronics. The room is medium to medium small 20 X 24 great room and has tile floors . I also plan on adding a Velodyne VX10 sub to the room...
OK, I went to Best Buy and listened to the Klipsch quintets and they were very nice without the sub. The sub seemed too boomy. I'm sure it had something to do with the setup. The athenas were not hooked up so I struck out there . Then went by Circuit city to hear the polk R-15's and 20's. Not...
Thanks for the info on the fluance , I had searched the speaker section of the forum and found some info on fluance. Chris , I will take the advice of all and check out the offerings at the to local stores. On a different note , I went to the Soundcity website to check what they had....great...
Thanks for the inputs.... keep 'em comming. I've seen many people on this forum suggest the H/K 125. Does anyone have a first hand opinion on the fluance speaker systems ? I believe they sell sell a mid level 5 speaker system for around 250 and the 140 watt sub for around 200. I don't...
I've been reading for the last couple of weeks regarding home theater ... boy am I behind the times. I currently have an old Technics prologic reciever ( SA-GX770 ) hooked up to a pair of bose 201's( yeah I know ), Technics center channel and surrounds. I also have a Toshiba SD1200 single disk...
