I've got a 7.2 receiver w/ Atmos. I'm building a theater in a room that is about 12' x 19'. There will be two rows of seating. My concern is that with only two surround speakers (one left surround, and one right surround), and two ceiling speakers (one left, one right), only one row of the...
Hello, and thank you for helping me out.
I'm new to hi-fi setups so please excuse if I don't provide enough/relevant information, so please do not hesitate to ask anything that might help you help me.
I have a Denon AVR-X2500h audio receiver which has the following specs in terms of power...
Hello,
I've got an unfinished basement and am in planning stages right now. I had settled on building a 5.2.2 home theater system (used almost exclusively for tv & movies) with in-wall & in-ceiling speakers (including in-wall Left, Right and Center speakers), but with 2 standalone powered 12"...
Hi, I'm looking for a pair of Miller & Kreisel Surround SS550 THX speakers. I'm looking for the ones made in the USA by the original M&K.
Please PM me if you have a set.
Thanks.
Hello, and thank you for helping me out.
It has been a dream of mine for years to get a nice home theater set up, and now I have the resources.
Unofortunately, it is quite hard in my country to get hifi audio equipment, after lots of searching I was able to find a set of 5.1 speakers from...
This is probably a very simple question but i'm trying to connect some existing speakers in our house to my sky Q box.
The speakers are on the wall (see picture) with the cables having no connector currently on them (see picture). As far as i can see the input for the sky Q box is an optical...
Thanks for the add. I’ll be receiving my new Marantz AV 8805 in a couple days. Right now I’m running a 5.1 but would like to add ceiling speakers for an Atmos setup. I have cathedral ceilings that start at 8’ and peak at 11’. Im looking for experience/advice on this setup. See attached photo.
We just bought a house which comes with a whole home stereo system. There are 12 speakers in total placed in stereo pairs throughout the house. Two of these speakers are close to, if not dead center in the living room which is also where the connections for these speakers live. The house was...
Hi all, new here to the forum and new to Home theatre. I'm an old dude, 68 but willing to enter the 21st century. here is my question...First I will list my equipment.
Samsung QN65Q8fn TV
Samsung HW-N850 Soundbar
Samsung UBD-M9500 UHD DVD player
I LOVE this set up, had a few teething problems...
Hello everyone. I am way behind in all things audio/video. I am 48 and just now doing my first set-up.
The last 2 weeks I have acquired a used Yamaha AVENTAGE RX-A740, a Sony 4k blu-ray player, and a 5.2 Elac Debut 2.0 speaker package (50% off from Best Buy). A 55" 4k tv will be next. I know...
I will preface my post by expressing my appreciation to all those who have contributed answers to questions on the forum. Your inputs guided me in my dedicated HT build which I did from scratch. Your inputs whiteout which I certainly would have fallen into some serious pitfalls.
I have...
Back in 2007/2008 I purchased James Loudspeakers for my home theater. I have since moved and stored them. They haven't seen the light of day since 2014. I have the following:
1 - EMB 1200 sub
3 - 805 SDX's
4 - 62 SDX's
This may be a silly question but in my new house, I am considering...
Hi all.
Due to my living situation the last couple of years I have only been running two tower speakers and a center channel. The room isn't ideal for side and rear speakers, mainly due to wiring.
I am highly considering an alternative to a traditional wire based speaker for my rear speakers...
Hello. I'm in desperate need of a pair of wireless rear channel speakers. In my new home, my only rear (really overhead) location has high arch's and pillars, so hard wiring to the reciever is ugly, but low voltage power to a wall wart can be worked with.
I don't think Bluetooth would work...
I am building a new home and need some in-wall/celing speakers for Atmos on a Denon X3300W. Celings are catherdral style so at a slant. Been looking at the Polk 70RT,-Micca M series,-and the Klipsh R 5650, Klipish CDT-5650 (I like the way the speakers can be swivled as the celing is at a pitch)...
Hey folks,
I currently live on the second floor of a two-story co-op. The Board of Directors has to approve any structural modifications to any apartment, and recently denied my request for in-ceiling speakers that I intend to install for Dolby Atmos. They cited a fear of "wall vibration" which...
Ok so after my thread "Howdy - Unhappy Onkyo owner - not for long" - I decided to get it fixed for $174. If it breaks, its outta here but for now I also need speakers.
I have speakers from a guy at work (ole junk RCA's hah... those silver ones)
While setting up my receiver last night in 5.1...
So, the basement project is almost done and I need help setting up my speakers. I know I want a 7.1 or 7.2 system that can expand with ceiling speakers for Dolby Atmos later down the road. See layout and pic. I have already ran wiring for mounted speakers, (L,C,R,SL,SR,RL, and RR). I'm looking...
Sorry if this was not the right place to post about this
I have a sony ht-ct790 soundbar . I got a awesome deal on it and I love it. I saw this at bestbuy the other day these https://www.bestbuy.com/site/insignia-universal-rear-speakers-pair-black/5864200.p?skuId=5864200
My current set up is...
I recently bought the Onkyo TX-8270 to pair with my Klipsch R15-PM's. After hooking up the speakers to the receiver, only the left channel plays the audio. I've troubleshooted using different sources and speaker wire,switching the speaker from left to right on the receiver, nothing. The right...
Hi,
Back in 2014, I bought an LG BH9430PW 1460W 3D Blu-ray Theater System when it was first released.
It is a powerful home theater system but had a lot of issues with its amplifier and rear speakers controller.
Now I'm left with working speakers and I was wondering if I can buy a good and...
Hello-,
First timer here and yes, I signed up just to ask a question. If I can contribute in any small way I will, but my ignorance is what brought me here, so you've been warned! ;)
We just bought a house and the living room is equipped with some speakers mounted in/on the walls, I believe...
Lets say you have a 7.2 AVR that does 5.1.2
What keeps you from piggybacking an extra speaker on each channel on height speakers if you were to install them in the ceiling?
Is there a difference than using a 9.2 AVR for a 5.1.4 system? Aside from the impedance and extra stress on the amp...
Hello HTF members. I have a total of 6 SVS Prime Elevation speakers available for sale. They are gently [less than 2 years] used and in excellent condition. Having just installed in-ceiling speakers, I simply have no further use for these.
I have all of the original mounting hardware...
I have a set of Logitech Z906 speakers I have used with my old HTPC . I like them, but hate having a separate remote for volume control.
I saw soundbars set up with an HDMI cable and ARC allow the TV remote to control the soundbar volume using HDMI-CEC and ARC. I like my speakers, but they do...
greetings, my wife and I are moving into our new house that has a great room configuration, we are going to be using our 52-inch flat screen for our 7.1 surround sound system, our problem is radiant floor heat and my inability to freely drill holes and and pull wires .... question to The Forum...
I just got a Denon AVR-S530BT receiver. It says 140w. What does this mean exactly ? I picked this receiver because the speakers I have say they're 6 ohm and this receiver says it can run them. But the speakers say 120w. The receiver says, like I said, 140w. Will my speakers work with this receiver ?

I need to replace a 10 year old Polk RM7 "home-theater-in-a-box" series set, as they're starting to sound worn out and giving out a rattling, tinny quality. We have a small living room setup with a 42" TV and currently using a 2.1 stereo system hooked up to a Yamaha RX-V677 receiver. We sit...
hello all - im buying a house that comes with 5 bose satellitle/double split cube speakers and am trying to find a reasonably priced sub to match with them as the acoustimass bass module and receiver do not have HDMI. The room is 22x24 and id like thr bass to just sound full - i dont need rock...
