Klipsch Quintet III any thoughts i see best buy have them for $299 in there 4day sale

LifeOfAPirate13 · 11-23-2008, 01:06 AM

I heard they were good I have all the reference series lol one of my speakers is the price of that whole set. I know a few people have setups with the Quintlet III but I have no clue if it is worth the $

richterbon23 · 11-23-2008, 01:28 AM

i have the quintet II's and they are quite nice.... my setup is in my bedroom which is about 15 x 15 and they really fill the room with nice sound for the price

A great deal on a good 5-speaker set-up, comparable to the Polk RM line - I would definitely go for it, if I were you, at that price.

They might just do the job, if it makes you happy. Nothing quite like new toys!

Speaking of the polk rm line i can get the rm75 for $269 for that set, so these two set head to head which is superior

What is your receiver?

They are supposed to be good. Not my thing, but if you like them that seems to be a good price on them.

Personally I would say to spend that money on Fronts, a Center, Rears and finally add a Sub later. I have never liked speaker packages. Besides as many people will atest, you will have upgrade-itist in about a year anyways, best just to do it right the first time.

For instance
Polk Monitor 50's Floorstanding, CS1 Center, Monitor 30's bookshelf's $377 from amazon.

Save up and add a Sub in a few months.

just my 2 cents tho

I'm using them for surrounds and rears. I thought my Onkyo 805 was going to be to much power for these satellite speakers, but they sound amazing when the volume is turned up.

Check you're center channel wires to see that they are hooked up correct & not switched ! maybe !

Correctumondo. Check to make sure that the same side of the wire is connected to the + & - at each end. Most speaker wire has a white stripe on one side.. or two different strand colors or SOME way to tell the difference between the two sides.

If they are connected correctly, and you still get the error... then the internal wiring in the speaker may be crossed in which case I'd swap it out.

blu master · 11-25-2008, 12:01 AM

Ok hold on let me check

blu master · 11-25-2008, 12:35 AM

Ok the wires from the recevier to the speaker is ok i opened the speaker and it looks ok to unless there is a cross up from the crossover to the speaker terminal i don't know

but i'm playing a movie and it sounds ok

crazyBLUE · 11-25-2008, 12:50 AM

Then it sounds like you're good to go !!!

blu master · 11-25-2008, 01:12 AM

Well it has to be inside the speaker cause i switched the wires around from the receiver to the speaker and i did the setup again and it ok, now the big question is if the difference in polarity will damage the speaker

crazyBLUE · 11-25-2008, 01:30 AM

If you think there's something wrong with that speaker then take it back and get another one !!
