Gold Member Username: My_rantzAustralia Post Number: 1023 Registered: Nov-05 | Okay, center speakers go in the center and the surrounds surround the listener. Okay, I've had my fun. What is it exactly that you need help with? Try this to get started: http://www.dolby.com/consumer/home_entertainment/roomlayout.html |
Bronze Member Username: AudionewArlington, Texas Post Number: 11 Registered: Jan-07 | I have two mains, Paradigm Titan V.3. There is a setting on my H/K that simulates the center and surrounds but i would like to have the speakers there. any suggestions on what and where to look? |
Silver Member Username: StefanomSilver Spring, MD United States Post Number: 277 Registered: Apr-06 | Your Paradigm dealer would be the best bet. Your HK is a surround sound receiver, correct? |
Bronze Member Username: AudionewArlington, Texas Post Number: 14 Registered: Jan-07 | yes, the H/K is an AVR 320. A 7 channel reciever, ofcourse i would only be running 5.1 |
Platinum Member Username: Project6Post Number: 12227 Registered: Dec-03 | Have you read the manual? |
Bronze Member Username: AudionewArlington, Texas Post Number: 15 Registered: Jan-07 | yes, why do you ask? |
Platinum Member Username: Project6Post Number: 12229 Registered: Dec-03 | Because of the way you stated the question. Most who have read the manual are more specific about their queries, i.e., the set-up is complete, but...(insert query here), the center channel is not working, there are no sounds coming out of the rear speakers, etc. "There is a setting on my H/K that simulates the center and surrounds but i would like to have the speakers there. any suggestions on what and where to look"...When you wrote that you would like to have the speakers there, suggests that you have not set-up the speakers as of yet. Do you have center and surround speakers yet? Then you stated..."of course i would only be running 5.1"...indicating you probably have not set anything up and not yet read the manual. Be specific with the help you need, so you can get started right away and you can enjoy your new toys |
Bronze Member Username: AudionewArlington, Texas Post Number: 16 Registered: Jan-07 | sorry for the misinformation. I only have the two paradigms and was looking to get a center and surrounds and was asking for suggetions. |
Silver Member Username: StefanomVienna, VA United States Post Number: 279 Registered: Apr-06 | For a center you should definitely go with Paradigm. Surrounds some people tend to be a bit more lax on, but I would still suggest going with a pair of Atoms or the Paradigm surrounds to maintain a good timbre match all around. |
Gold Member Username: ArtkAlbany, Oregon USA Post Number: 3763 Registered: Feb-05 | Paradigm CC170 or CC270 center and Atoms or Titans for surrounds. Inexpensive and timbre matched solution to your issue. |
