IMO those Klipsch speakers are not very good at all; it will be very easy to find many speakers that sound much better.
I suggest that you look at speakers from KEF, PSB, Focal and Wharfedale.
For example, the Wharfedale Diamond 250, which are only $1000 per pair.
For an outstanding integrated amplifier, I recommend Musical Fidelity; they make some excellent ones that compete in sound quality with much more expensive ones. I suggest the Musical Fidelity M6si, which is a bargain at $2999.
I would also suggest that you get a Marantz CD6006 player, which will sound MUCH better than your old one, and is only $600. It uses DAC chips which are several generations removed from those in that old Onkyo, and the sound is much improved.
Thank you very much, Commsysman. I will certainly take a hard look at those recommendations. Another question for you.... Do you stream music to your system? If so, what do you use to do that?
Thanks again!
