Hi all-
So I currently have the Klipsch Quintet III with 10" sub. I have a new job, and in the coming fall season I would like to upgrade my entire living/entertainment room. New furniture, new amp, new speakers, etc...I have an idea for the Amp, and obviously the furniture has no real bearing here, but what I am wondering is what to replace the Quintet system with. I had thought about just buying some Klipsch floorstanders to match the surrounds, but then realized that maybe it was time to go to a better-quality set-up.
I enjoy the sound from the Klipsch's, but sometimes it just doesn't provide enough range. There are many times that dialogue seems a little weak, and I have tried playing around with the settings to get the sound I want, but to no avail. I think my problem is I am just pining for the excellent sound that a good-quality system can produce. I have searched all over the forums, thought about a Klipsch Reference system, a Def Tech ProCinema system, a Paradigm Monitor 9 system, etc... What would you guys recommend for a good, high-quality but not ultra expensive set-up? The room it's going to be in is about 15' x 15', with regular 8 foot ceilings.
I'm looking to spend around $2,000 when all is said and done. I would be open to going with another 5.1 Satellite system, but I also like the idea of ditching the sub and going with a high-quality 2.1 up front with good surrounds. Any ideas/suggestions? Perhaps some good websites to browse around at? I'm going to try and audition some speakers around my area, but unfortunatley all I have around here is a CC, BB (non-Magnolia), and that's about it. Help me out here guys
