> My system is a hodge podge of stuff from over the years. When I used to work at the StereoShop in Greensburg, I was able to try out new stuff often. Now I have a Yamaha receiver, Pioneer DVD player, Cerwin Vega front speakers, Infinity rear speakers, Boston center channel, and the paradigm sub. Now this stuff is all about 10 yrs old & is much bigger than it needs to be. I love the Yamaha receiiver, but the center channel is acting up & it is not a 5.1 or 7.1 receiver. I am going to update to a new 7.1 Yamaha, but I dunno on the speakers, yet. I’ve always wanted Klipsch speakers, so now might be the time for them. I also want to get a quality Blue Ray disc player to take advantage of the 1080p.

I hear ya, I picked mine up the same way while working at Audio Communications. I knew I was on the way out the door and just wanted to grab the biggest and badest I could afford. So my rears are Bookshelf sized “atoms” hanging on the wall, the Center channel is twice the size I need and the fronts are “Legends” towers and both house a 10" sub mated to an atom speaker. Everything is close to 7 years old with a higher end Sony ES receiver - the only thing I would upgrade is the reciever but hate to put the money out while it’s working. I can’t swallow buying a Blue ray yet, I’ve got too many DVD’s and don’t feel like starting over with a new format!

I’ve heard good things about the Klipsch, and my father in-law just redid his system with a 60" wall mount and a really nice Yamaha 7.1, forget the name of the speakers but it is a really well worked out system.
