Does anyone have any experance or input on these speakers? I am currently running a JBL 10" sub that is a little lacking in bass. Maybe these will help.? I use my HT for mainly movies.

I have been using a pair of Klipsch KG 2.5 bookshelfs http://www.klipsch.com/product/product.aspx?cid=145&s=specs
as my mains since 1995 and eventhough they still sound great I feel like I might be missing out. Don't know if these SP-1 are the way to go but I think I can get them pretty cheap.

Also I will be upgrading to a HK 335 receiver. I have heard that the combination of HK's warmth and Klipsch's horns is a great match.

Nothing sounds like Klipsch. I have 5.2's and 3.2's since 1992 and don't want to let go. Klipsch has a really good forum off their website- you might want to check it out.

Klipsch has a very unique sound make sure you audition some before you buy. Have you ever owned horn speakers?

If you're looking for more bass you need to look at bigger/better subwoofer. I would try this approach first.

I've gotta agree with hookedonsound, if your using the ht mainly for movies, those speakers may help a little but you should really consider a better sub first.
