Hello all! I am new to home theater and recently made some purchases which I am now considering returning and exchanging for other items, but would really like some input if you would not mind.... some history....
We recently purchased the Onkyo TX-SR600 receiver and the Onkyo speaker package SKS-HT500. I am absolutely not happy with the lack of clarity and am unsure of what to do next..
My choices...
Return the Onkyo receiver and try either a Denon 1803 or a Yamaha RXV630 to see if this clears things up....
Return the Onkyo speakers and keep the receiver and get different (better) speakers. The speakers I am interested in are the Klipsch due to the clarity in the ones I have listened to so far. Thing is they are MUCH more expensive than what I have now like around 1 speaker for the price of the whole package I have now.
We are using quality cables for everything so I do not think that is the problem. A DVD or CD does not sound too bad, but the TV signal sounds horrible, very distorted. Even on a DVD it sounds strange, kinda muffled or like people are talking through a tunnel. Hollow sounding and not natural at all. I just do not know if something like that would be caused by the receiver or the speakers.
Well, any thoughts would be greatly appreciated!
thanks, debbie
