N Nick V Audiophyte Sep 25, 2020 2 0 1 45 Sep 25, 2020 #1 With this being my first post... hello world. I am just getting audio and recently purchased my first speaker set (Klipsch Reference Dolby Atmos Surround System): 2 - R-625FA Tower Speakers 2 - R-41M Bookshelf Speakers 1 - R-52C Center Channel Speaker Total = $900 (Costco) All connects to a Sony STR-DN1080 and a hand-me-down Sony 10" subwoofer from early 2000s. I purchased the Sony receiver based on the reports of its beginner-friendliness and the speakers on pretty much the same, if not their popularity. Into 3 weeks of ownership, past the honeymoon phase, I find them lacking from a pure sound quality perspective - As the saying goes, "you get what you pay for." So i am biting the bullet and returning the speakers for a decent pair of 2 channels (even though the avr has a part for sure) at around the same cost. With all endless speaker brands and DIYs, various electronics... I'll be sure to reach out at some point before when i start to drown. Here I go into the rabbit hole. --Cheers
