i need some opions on equipment please

[ParadigmDawg]

The "HZ" that you set is the crossovers and also means you have your speakers set to "small" which means they are not in "full range". You are getting there, play around with it a little more and see where you end up.

 

[ParadigmDawg]

I just looked at the speakers. A higher crossover will be best with those. Try 100 HZ all the way around and see how it sounds.

Sam187. I can't help you with the brackets but how does your system sound to you? Do all the speakers work without damage? It looks like you must have come in under your budget and I assume the receiver is full-featured like you wanted. Congratulations.

See if something like this will work. http://www.racksandstands.com/Sanus-WMS3-SY0097.html

Rack&stands have a bunch of stuff so check out their entire website. I bought my credenza from them.

yea the receiver was like 430$ after tax about 250$ for the speakers for the 20$ audio wire. put me @ about 200$ under the max i really did want to spend in the first place.

but really u guys over help a lot. the speakers sound good im not going to complain about them. the sub kinda sucks but for the price.....

it all worked out pretty well now just a matter of getting to know some stuff so i can tweek it.

 

[sam187]

now at least i entered my world, i can make my own hook ups for these speakers!! lol they just wont be as pretty as the ones u can buy,but just about free looks good too.if i had a shop i would be able to make them even better looking but... no shop no tools. when i set every thing up ill take some pictures and post them so u guys can see what u help me get.

 

[ParadigmDawg]

I thought 29 bucks would be ok since you came in at $200 under budget on the rest of your stuff.

Free is always good and it should be pretty easy to make something work.

Just curious, how old are you?

im 25

but 30 dollars times 5 is 150$ then tax. its pretty expensive.

i need to put all the speakers on the wall because, both top and bottom of these speakers have a slope on them,so i cant stand them.

 

[sam187]

how would i know?

how would i know if its safe to turn the dial on the volume all the up? i dont want to blow my speakers and or sub.?

 

[ParadigmDawg]

The should have came with stands.

The link I provided is for a pair so you just need two and the center could set on the TV.

That Onk has a good amount of power so dont turn it all the way up. If you are not getting the amount of sound you want then your speakers are too small or the room is too big. If you set the volume control with a SPL meter you will have a safe way knowing how loud you are and you can set a max setting for yourself.

A work around is set the master volume to 0 when you do the calibration and then 75 on the volume control should roughly be 75db which should be quite loud.

can any body with a onk put this in layman's terms

"If you set the volume control with a SPL meter you will have a safe way knowing how loud you are and you can set a max setting for yourself.

or,have a suggestion of their own that u might like to share

thanks
