That receiver is Golden, never replace it for stereo! I use a VSX-D1S from the same era right now in my setup!

>My questions are: can I hook up a sub to this, and if so how?

Like this http://i.imgur.com/Z8FMJ.png Your amp is just bigger. You can probably even use the "B" channel.

> And on the side next to the volume knob there are some buttons, currently I'm using the "simulated" option running the "Acoustic" preset. What is Dolby 3CH Logic? Does that setting mean I can use a left and right satellite along with the "center" speaker that came w/ my 5.1 set from years ago? Can I obtain true 5.1 sound coming from twin RCA cables? What are the "A" and "B" options on the back of the receiver for the right and left speaker hookups?

Try to run in plain Jane stereo mode. (probably just press the simulated button again and shut it off.) Not sure if the unit has a "DIRECT" mode but if it does enable it. You want to go through and make sure there aren't any tone adjustments (Bass, Treble) set it all to 0's as I can see the indicators on the right showing a big bass boost and a small treble boost.

3ch means what you think. It will fake in a center channel based on what sounds are present in the left and right equally. Movies this is good, Music it is bad. You will get 5.1 to play but nothing close to a digital signal via SPDIF or HDMI. This unit is best left as a Very good stereo receiver. A+B channels if you have two different speakers you want to use. In your case you would likely hook the sub up to the B channel and leave both on.

As for speakers (proper speakers) I would get the monster Fluance SX6's if you think you can fit them. After that some Micca's or ... Polk OWM3's^(shhh haven't reviewed them yet) would work with a sub.

u/MyPackage · 3 pointsr/hometheater

For $1000 you could build a decent home theater system that destroys a soundbar setup Atmos or not. You'll definitely get the best Atmos experience with the speakers in or on the ceiling but that's not doable for a lot of people. Here's a list of equipment I put together in about 5 minutes. Keep in mind this setup would allow you to do two Atmos speakers. If you want to do 4 the cost of the receiver doubles.

​

Reciever $250: https://www.accessories4less.com/make-a-store/item/denavrx1400h/denon-avr-x1400h-7.2-ch-x-80-watts-networking-a/v-receiver-w/heos/1.html

Fronts/rears/center $380: https://www.amazon.com/dp/B07B9TF1XS/ref=sspa_dk_detail_4?psc=1&pd_rd_i=B07B9TF1XS&pf_rd_m=ATVPDKIKX0DER&pf_rd_p=21517efd-b385-405b-a405-9a37af61b5b4&pd_rd_wg=puxin&pf_rd_r=H5T2WA4F1VT30XSQ2ZEB&pf_rd_s=desktop-dp-sims&pf_rd_t=40701&pd_rd_w=FAHO2&pf_rd_i=desktop-dp-sims&pd_rd_r=9dc55bc6-e9cb-11e8-9729-43f65cfc73de

​

If you wanted upfiring atmos speakers

Atmos Upfiring $99: https://www.amazon.com/Pioneer-SP-T22A-LR-Speaker-designed-Andrew/dp/B0148NPHO8

​

If you want to mount directly to the ceiling or high up on a wall pointing down

Atmos on ceiling: $99 https://www.amazon.com/Polk-Audio-Wall-Speaker-Black/dp/B0018QNYVM

​

Subwoofer $140: https://www.parts-express.com/dayton-audio-sub-1200-12-120-watt-powered-subwoofer--300-629

​

In this setup you'd plug all of your HDMI inputs into the receiver and then have the receiver output go to your TV. This is better than HDMI ARC because it allows you to use the lossless Dolby TrueHD Atmos tracks that blurays use. HDMI ARC doesn't support lossless audio and compresses everything to Dolby Digital+.

u/GlobalAsshat · 3 pointsr/MGTOW

You don't gain that much from having those extra side speakers unless the room is extremely large and the speakers reasonably far away from your listening position, and the ceiling speakers more than make up for having the two extra side speakers. The reason 5.1.4 is the sweet spot is because receivers that do it are still reasonably affordable... if you wanted to do 7.1.4, the receivers to do this get more expensive... a good $1000 price jump, from spending $600-1000 for a receiver to spending $1750-2500.

The last number is the number of ceiling speakers you use. Some people have 5.1.2 systems, others have 7.1.2.. you'd be better off with 4 ceiling speakers in 5.1.4 configuration than a 7.1.2 configuration. The ceiling speakers don't have to be super expensive.. these are mine...

https://www.amazon.com/Polk-Audio-Wall-Speaker-Black/dp/B0018QNYVM/ref=sr_1_7?ie=UTF8&qid=1542558117&sr=8-7&keywords=polk+wall++speaker

you do want to (except for the subwoofer) try to have the same brand of speakers throughout the whole setup. I have a Polk CS2 center, Monitor 70 fronts, and Monitor 60 rears. (These used to go on sale at newegg from time to time.) These speakers have gotten some criticism by some people because of the tweeters, but they work fine as long as you get a receiver powerful enough to give them the juice they need... if you get an underpowered receiver that generates any clipping, it can blow the tweeters out.


Might as well throw in what receiver I got.. I didn't pay $900, I got it on sale for $700 I believe. And yes, it does pass through 4K HDR @ 60FPS.. that one star review is wrong.

https://www.amazon.com/Denon-AVRX4400H-Channel-Network-Receiver/dp/B072Z6VT1C/ref=sr_1_2?ie=UTF8&qid=1542558660&sr=8-2&keywords=x4300h

I'd call this a "bang for the buck" setup.. it's not audiophile quality (but sounds like it to my ears) but it doesn't cost $5,000-10,000 either... total cost is around $2000 (when everything's on sale)... most people here could assemble a 5.1.2 setup for around $1000 (when shit's on sale) they'd be perfectly happy with. The most expensive components are the receiver and subwoofer. The least expensive components.. ceiling speakers. As a MGTOW you don't have to spend extra that the audiophiles spend getting more powerful speakers to accommodate large numbers of people. If you just have 1-4 people in your setup, it will cost a lot less than if you make a setup designed for 5-10 or more people. As distance from the speakers increases, required power goes up.

At some point I might end up moving this whole system so it's flush with the back wall.. my initial goal was to avoid glare from these massive windows but I think I can mitigate that with light blocking curtains. This would allow me to expand the soundstage more and make room for guests.

u/tonyviv · 3 pointsr/BudgetAudiophile

IMO it's not important to "match" surround speakers to your front setup. The T15's should be fine or take a look at these other Polks that might have a better WAF if you plan to wall mount https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0018QNYVM/. I also like all of the Fluance bipolar surrounds and have used them in several systems in the past https://www.amazon.com/dp/B00067OLOS/ or https://www.amazon.com/dp/B01553D9CC/ or https://www.amazon.com/dp/B01KAIHDRY/

u/scottymoze · 3 pointsr/hometheater

For Atmos: def go in-ceiling if you can, better than up-firing whenever possible, here's Amazon's top 100 (ignore the anomaly soundbars and bluetooth speaker junk), in general you will probably get what you pay for. You don't need to brand/voice match in-ceiling speakers to your other speakers, but feel free to do so. For example if you have Polk rears, you might want Polk in-ceiling also:

https://www.amazon.com/Best-Sellers-Electronics-Ceiling-Wall-Speakers/zgbs/electronics/12097474011

If not in-ceiling, then before you go up-firing, consider mounting two external speakers to ceiling above you as an alternate route. Polk OWM line is recommended for this as an example, due to great versatility in mounting options.

u/usul1628 · 2 pointsr/BudgetAudiophile

Well, nice is a relative term when spending $300 on speakers and a subwoofer. Its alot to ask for on that budget IMO, but it can certainly be done if it just plugs into a computer. /r/zeos has lots of good info, using his guide, I'd pick the Polk On-Walls for $100, Martin Logan 8" Subwoofer for $130 and an SMSL SA50 for an amp. You'll need banana connectors, speaker wire and a 3.5mm to stereo RCA for connectivity. That should be a good balance of sound. Don't get this setup without the subwoofer though, those speakers are designed presuming you have a sub, and will fit nicely on your desk, and the sub is small enough to fit comfortably underneath.

u/explosivo563 · 2 pointsr/audio

Small and cheap won't put out the sound you want in a cafe. I would suggest getting a receiver. You can connect by auxiliary, Bluetooth, or plug a flash drive into the denon models I have seen. You could probably find a used one for 200 or less depending on features. Then you can connect any speakers you want. Up to 5.

Something like this http://www.amazon.com/gp/aw/d/B007L8Q75G/ref=mp_s_a_1_4?qid=1413453674&sr=8-4&pi=AC_SX110_SY165_QL70

Or this http://www.amazon.com/gp/aw/d/B00M3NZDT0?cache=820a7785255f49d45f3542f80c1f2966&pi=SX200_QL40&qid=1413453726&sr=8-3#ref=mp_s_a_1_3

This is the most recommended if u can find it in stock http://www.amazon.com/gp/aw/d/B00JR6GJLW/ref=aw_wl_ov_dp_1_11?colid=25PKQCCBPVIPQ&coliid=I88NLVPGQ7IZ1

Then some speakers like this to start
http://www.amazon.com/gp/aw/d/B0018QNYVM?cache=820a7785255f49d45f3542f80c1f2966&pi=SX200_QL40&qid=1413453934&sr=8-3#ref=mp_s_a_1_3

Or some bookshelf speakers if you want something bigger but possibly cheaper. Hit up your local Craigslist first though. People usually sell their whole system at once. Or look for a used receiver and speakers.

u/CaptZ_3148 · 2 pointsr/hometheater

These speakers with this mount

I'll be honest it doesn't look the best if you are looking at the living room, but when watching TV its not noticeable.

u/givemeyournews · 2 pointsr/ZReviews

I like the idea of the SMSL Q5 (enough power, sub out, built in dac with USB and optical, bass and treble controls, and a remote for $120).

It would pair well with a nice on wall speaker like the Polk OWM3

And if you need more low end, you can snag a Dayton Sub on the cheap down the road.

I would add, stay away from the Vizo soundbars. I have helped two of my friends set them up and they are overall pretty terrible. The sound out of my buddy's 65" Vizio TV actually sounded as good as, if not a tad bit better than the soundbar. It was pretty weird. And the sub is boomy and the crossover seems to be set higher than expected since the soundbar speakers don't have any low end. Because of that, the sound coming from the sub is very locatable, limiting the placement options one would have.

u/illhaveanotherplease · 2 pointsr/hometheater

You can certainly use the MB42x-C, but I would think that you'd be better off long term with the C5. I haven't heard the same criticisms about the C5 but I can't defend it either. Even a "poorly matched" LCR would still be better than mixing and matching, IMO.

As for the surrounds, you really don't want the speakers behind the listening position on a 5.1 system. Instead of a seamless transition from the front soundstage to the surrounds, you'll hear it jump to the speakers behind you. Your receiver correction will handle the fact that the wall and surrounds are close to the listener.

If you're worried about the speakers themselves being too close to the wall, you may want to reconsider the MB42x's and instead go with something meant for wall mounting, such as the Polk OWM3's... https://www.amazon.com/Polk-Audio-Wall-Speaker-Black/dp/B0018QNYVM

u/Frede154 · 2 pointsr/hometheater

If you're ready for a receiver upgrade, there's nothing better at $150 than an avr-x1400h. If you're not ready he can pick up a Denon s540bt for $150 or a Denon s730h for $220. I'd pick the 540 for an under $1,000 setup.

Bic America F12 Subwoofer (if wife allows)

Now you have quite a few choices for LCR. I'd start with Elac Debut 2 B6.2 and Matching Center. For ~$570.

Leave the rest for cables and upgrading surrounds for later. I'm currently pretty happy with my Polk owm3 for $100 but I have rear space restrictions.

You can also go the Fluance Route Fluance L& R, Matching center, and Bipole Surrounds for ~$500

u/homeboi808 · 2 pointsr/hometheater

So you "only" have a 5.1.2 then, correct?

>Hope I'm not being rude.

Nah, I understand stubborn father's, but it's usually about not wanting to pay a lot because the cheaper stuff is good enough, not so much not wanting to actually save money and get a much higher quality setup.

Even though upfiring isn't that recommended (in cieling on mounted on ceiling are, but you are in an apartment), for $1200 you could get:

u/000Destruct0 · 2 pointsr/hometheater

In such a confined space a 5.1.2 or 5.1.4 would work well as long as you can ceiling mount the atmos channels. With that budget i'd likely get this:

Receiver $600: http://www.accessories4less.com/make-a-store/item/marsr5011/marantz-sr5011-7.2-ch-x-100-watts-networking-a/v-receiver/1.html

L/C/R speakers $860: https://www.chanemusiccinema.com/chane-loudspeakers/A2.4

Rear and height speakers $200: https://smile.amazon.com/Polk-Audio-Wall-Speaker-Black/dp/B0018QNYVM/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1493048817&sr=8-1&keywords=polk+owm3 (This is the first time I've ever recommended Polk speakers)

Subwoofer $900: http://www.hsuresearch.com/products/vtf-3mk5HP.html

Normally I like towers for the L/R but your room is too compressed. The split gap woofers will give you better low end despite the small cabinets.

u/DZCreeper · 2 pointsr/hometheater

Trying to add surrounds and Atmos before a good subwoofer is putting the cart before the horse.

Go to 3.1, then 5.1, then 5.1.2.

You can add a pair of surrounds and Atmos channels for $193. The Polk OWM3 don't require mounting in the ceiling, just hung from 2 screws.

https://www.amazon.com/Polk-Audio-Wall-Speaker-Black/dp/B0018QNYVM

https://www.amazon.com/gp/offer-listing/B008NCD2LG

Your receiver needs Atmos support of course.

u/fatblindkid · 1 pointr/hometheater

Excellent point...and pretty much why I decided on trying to get an AV installer...I'm completed baffled where to put them.

  • I was considering the Polk Aurdio OWM3 in white or the Micca COVO-S compact bookshelves after seeing Zeo's review of them...they seemed like they would potentially could be slipped into an arm of some sort, mounted at G0 or L0, and angled down towards the main viewing area without being too obvious.

  • Then I learned how important it was to be at ear level from a prior post. At the time I was so desperate that I was considering trying to do wireless surrounds as bookshelves that I could just move into place on movie night at positioned marked "Gx and Lx (near the middle of the wall)" since "G0 or L0 (Mounted on the upper wall)" didn't seem very reasonable since it was so off of ear level. I figured that on movie night I could just use a rocketfish setup to slide a surround into position @ Gx or Lx and plug one of them in for a few hours...and maybe keep one on a windowsill (@ Gx) ready to go to make it even easier.


  • Completely confused, I had a local AV installer stop out and they suggested that perhaps mounting at G0-2 or L0-1 may actually be possible. They even thought that a bipole (or even a monopole) would be possible. Ultimately they suggested the Paradigms bipoles listed above.

  • Honestly bipoles or monopoles (Eg Polk Aurdio OWM3 or Micca COVO-S) don't matter too much to me...as unobtrusive as possible would be preferred. Bipoles sound like perhaps they may be better for non-standard seating at a love seat, at the kitchen table watching TV, or just playing some music for the holidays...but I'm certainly open to suggestions!

  • I was considering asking for an alternate surround from what the AV installer, but quite honestly, I don't know how to best compare them with my current layout, equipment and future plans. Could a ceiling speaker be added in or sliding a wireless speaker into Gx or Lx in the next 5-10 years? I have no idea...it sounds great in theory, but I have no clue what would be recommended or most flexible. But if there is an installer that can help out and provide guidance, Im more than willing to go with whatever they recommend
u/CUHWT94 · 1 pointr/audiophile

Here it goes. So I've been put in charge of replacing the sound system for our rowing facility. We have $1000 (with some leeway) and the only condition is that the speakers have to be wall mountable. We need 7 speakers in total and we already have a receiver (a gift from an alumni who decided to go sonos). What would you recommend reddit/what do you think about the Polk OWM3?

u/FewDollarsMore · 1 pointr/hometheater

I've just been browsing amazon and found a pretty good setup for my budget.

Receiver

Left and right speakers

Center speaker

Rear speakers

Almost 600$ for the entire setup. I was also interested in the Dali Zensor 1 speakers that was recommended to me earlier, but they made the total price go up to almost 900$ I'm still curious if I should go with the Micca MB42X shelf speakers over the Dayton though.

The set I'm worried about being too close to the wall (in my original scenario) are the Fluance AVBP2 surrounds.

I've read that bipolar surrounds can sound decent behind the listener, that's the only reason I debated that setup.

I will check out the Polk's. I think I'm probably going to end up going with the Elac B6's and eventually the Elac C5 center.

u/Creator78 · 1 pointr/hometheater

So I see people are using these as Atmos speakers. Would it be better to directly mount to the ceiling pointing down or on the front wall pointing down? Polk Audio OWM3 On-Wall Speaker (Pair, Black) https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0018QNYVM/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_apa_FJ6ZAb0VMVVPW

u/FULL_METAL_HOODIE · 1 pointr/hometheater

My concern with bipoles(and especially dipoles) on the walls there would be a potential phasing issue with a reflection off of the back wall. There would also be an associated gain from the rearward facing speakers of the bipole firing into corners.

Since it doesn't seem like you're opposed to wall mounting speakers, you could go for something like the Polk OWM3 which have a variety of mounting options and could even be mounted in the back corners firing into your room or these JBL Studio 210's firing in towards your couch. These Fluance Signature Series bookshelves are front ported and come with a place to wall mount them as well. Good luck

u/aflocka · 1 pointr/hometheater

By wider angle, do you mean further apart than the fronts? I intend to put them as far to the sides of the room as I can in the corner, and angling them slightly in toward the viewing position.

What do you think of the Polk OWM3 that /u/Armsc posted? $90 refurbished is about half what I paid for my fronts, so that seems reasonably proportionate.

u/TyGamer125 · 1 pointr/hometheater

Here's the problem $500 is a tight budget to start with and Dell doesn't have a great way to view their site (had a $200 gift card with my TV) nor are the prices great. For example we usually recommended refurbished receivers for people on a budget and in order to get Atmos an Atmos receiver from Dell you need to get this for $500 whereas the v583 (older model) is $250 and the exact same model is $330 so not being able to take use of a massive discount doesn't help. The other issue is the only passive bookshelf speakers that aren't crappy computer speakers is the Sony core bookshelfSony core bookshelf $120 and tower speakers or subwoofer (which is it? Idk) then they also sell the subwoofer (so maybe the other is the towers?). The core bookshelf speakers are actually pretty good however the subwoofer is worse than others in it's price bracket. However I still think it's your best bet and it's probably a lot better than any of the sound bar subs in your price range since Dell doesn't sell a better sub for the money.

This is my recommendation:

  • Sony core bookshelf (ss-cs5) $120 @ Dell

  • Sony core subwoofer (sa-cs9) $158 @ Dell

  • Denon s730h (2017 model year) $220 @ accessories4less

  • Speaker wire 16awg oxygen free pure copper or prebuilt speaker wire with banana plugs @ anywhere

  • subwoofer cable @ anywhere

  • Optionally: speaker stands or wall mounts @ anywhere

    Future upgrades:

  • Sony core center channel $120

  • Atmos speakers which can be either: in ceiling speaker like this or slim speakers mounted on the ceiling like this or Sony's matching core Atmos speakers that will sound significantly worse than the other 2 options

  • Side speakers which don't need to be anything special and Micca MB42X or the Polk owm3 are popular options. Don't do wireless for these and your best bet is getting flat speaker wire and either wiring it around or behind your mouldings, under a rug to behind the couch or running the wires in the walls or the floor (what I did). Side speakers are 90-110 degrees from your center channel from your main listening position.

    If you have any other questions let me know.

    Edit: Also If you're doubting that a 2.1 is a better experience than the others you listed go to Best buy and some of the stores will allow you to demo speakers (or sound bars). It should be immediately obvious that those Sony speakers are in a different league seeing as though the main woofer on the Sony bookshelf is 5" and the Vizio subwoofer is 6" and the Sony subwoofer is 10" and the Vizio doesn't have a single tweeter so are going to be dull and harder to hear dialog in movies.
u/IAMA_Dumba55_Fan · 1 pointr/audiophile

I am new to the home theater/audio hobby. I am looking to start simple with my new HT setup. I have a receiver, but am looking for new speakers. Can I start with just a front left/right? Are these viable options?

u/casos92 · 1 pointr/electronics

I bought them August 13th, but yeah I'll definitely look into the warranty. I'm just looking to replace the speakers as a whole with two new speakers. I though something like this might do the trick, but like I said I just don't know the intricacies of speakers. I'm not sure what amps, watts, and ohms have to do with compatibility, if they are even relevant at all.

Edit - Here is a picture of the speaker specifications

I wanna give you a comparison build if you ditch wireless and go for a traditional passive speaker system. This is just an example:
