Klipsch RB-51 vs Epos ELS-3 for a small room?

What? Cant hear the voices
Eldarado may be onto something. If you have the problem on DVD, digital cable or satellite TV, then it may be a setting in your DVD player and Set top box. Be sure your DVD player is set to PCM or Stereo in the Audio setup. Same goes for your set ...

"Spirit in the Sky" I can remember the first time I heard it on The Flying Bobsled ride at the Bluegrass fair in Lexington, Kentucky. 1977 or 1978, I believe.....I was sitting next to a very flexible gymnast.Enjoy,TIC

Digital Cable Music Choice
AvG,I didn't say it was a waste of time, just a waste of money for a big dollar digital cable. I have my cable converter/DVR connected to the DAC in my Resolution Audio Opus 21. It sounds much better than using the analog outputs from the cable bo...
