I'm a knucklehead! When I purchased my center speaker, I assumed that it would really enhance my musical CDs. Well, I've found out that center speakers are primarily used for DVDs, not musical CDs. I've wired my Klipsch center speaker to the B channel in the receiver (I'm not using the brass clips) and it doesn't seem like the speaker is putting out the sound it's capable of. Can anyone suggest what I can do? The receiver I have only has on terminal for a center speaker and the Klipsch center speaker has two terminals. Thanks for the help!
Need advice from the pros
I've recently "upgraded" my system with a Klipsch RC-3II center speaker. I have a Yamaha RX-V392 (70 watts per channel) and Klipsch KSF 10.5 floor standing speakers. The sound is great, but I think I can do a little better. I would like to next upgrade my receiver (it took me a year to convince my wife to let me get a center channel speaker!) but I'm not an audiophile like some of you. Here are my questions: Should I stick with a receiver or get an amp/preamp combob? What is the opinion on the Yamaha RXV 795? When I installed my center speaker, there were some brass clips connecting the negative terminals to each other and the same for the positive terminals. What are these for (don't laugh, this is my DUH question)? What is the best amp/receiver I can get for $750 or less?
