I love my 800's. It all depends on the size of the room you're trying to fill.

800 is fine....add a second subwoofer if you have the room in your theatre.....

I agree with yaadman01. Great for music and movies, but limited on bass at louder volumes. For deep bass you are going to need a subwoofer which I have. I replaced an old pair of full range Infinity speakers (same size, two-way) and was pleasantly surprised by the sound. Bright highs from the 3/4" high-freq driver and full mid range and mid bass from the 5-1/4" low-freq driver. I set the speaker size to small with the crossover at 80Hz on my 90W/channel receiver to protect with movies. P153s are rated at 10 - 100W and 58Hz - 20kHz. Hard to go wrong for the price per speaker considering the pair I replaced was three times as expensive. Limited warranty is 5 years parts and labor.

Good question. Is the conference room for meetings or like combo movie's, seminars or presentations. If its movies yeah go with 800. If its for meetings, talking and so forth - go with the 600. They are really clean and crisp. I love them in my home theater set up. You can hear everything. Good luck.

I'm not entirely informed when it comes to surround sound systems, but the front two speakers are usually dedicated to dialogue and most people who I've talked to say that they are the most important. That's why I'm looking more are the 7300. You can always update the speakers and use the same receiver later if you get the 6300 though. I think I'll wait a while longer, but I'll probably get the 7300. Thanks again for contacting Onkyo for us! :)

Go for Pioneer VSX 921 k , It's a 7.1 channel, if u need to add 2 additional speakers in future....

The (.0) describes the "sub" input. So you need an "audio, video amp"(AV amp) that is at least ".1 or .2"

Thanks, Rushead. Excellent explanation. I'm concluding that if I go with the BD55, I can use its 7.1 audio outputs with the 7.1 audio inputs on my Pioneer 1015. Might be the best way to go, since I'm sensing the Dolby TrueHD and DTS might be significantly better than regular DD and DTS in 5.1.

Andrew, Unless you have about $500 burning a hole in your pocket, I wouldn't be in a hurry to spend the money on a new receiver. The vast majority of the High Def audio soundtracks are 5.1 surround. Go to the store and look at the discs yourself. True HD and DT 5.1 proliferate. LPCM 7.1 is pretty scarce. So what happens when you input 5.1 soundtracks through your 7.1 setup. Certainly, the rear speakers are offering nothing that the surround speakers aren't delivering, unless you're switching to a non HD audio fomat, such as Pro Logic 2x.

Bruh ima b honest with u... it really depends on what u are using it for... I have this amp bridged with 4 12s and an equalizer... and for the most part I only use it for watching movies... n the music is good as well esp when the bass hits... for a mid size room I have the gain controls about on half and the equalizer bass nobs about on half so I'm good so with that said, it's still very loud n u can see the the speakers moving hard from the bass... So that's loud enough for me! If u r one of those hardcore bass freaks then this level may not be suitable for u.. u may need to get the 2500 model and 4 18s!!

I currently use a Denon AVR 4311CI. It manages 140 W at 8 Ohms or 170 at 6 Ohms on 9 or 11 channels. The sound results precise and musical, the volume level can rise very high without loss of clarity and precision.

It really depends on your needs. They are both excellent receivers, but the Pioneer has better Multi-Room/Multi-Source features (audio AND video), and it is the only receiver at this price point that allows you to route and control a digital audio source to the second room with full control. If the Multi-Room/Multi-Source features do not matter to you, I would also suggest that you consider the Harman Kardon AVR-254/354, as well as the Denon 790, 1610 and 1910. Slightly more expensive, but a unit to watch for is the upcoming Marantz NR1501. Good luck!

I have not heard the 325, so I would be speculating (nor do I know the size and configuration of your room). By all accounts the 325 should give you pretty impressive sound. Just remember that none of the Zvox models give you theater (5.1 or higher) surround sound (although there is "phasecue" circuitry to help open up the sound). Zvox claim to fame is solid sound and quality components with minimal setup. The amplifier is the same as on the 550 and so is the subwoofer (at least the size of the subwoofer). The only difference I see are the drivers: three 3.25" drivers for the 325 and five 2" drivers for the 550. The 550 does go down to 45 Hz vs 63 Hz on the 325 (meaning a bit better bass response). You can check out the reviews here on Amazon. The 5xx series is made to set your TV upon (up to 90 lbs), which is why I decided to buy it rather than their soundbars or the 3xx series.

they are pretty powerful speakers, so i wouldn't run them with less than 1000 per channel. I use a pyle pqa3100, it is pretty cheap but works great with these speakers.

Hi Peter, I work for a home cinema company and have these on a Marantz 8801. They are the most under rated speaker on the market, they can be a little bass heavy (it is controlled bass mind you) this is easily adjusted anyway in a nutshell Amazing speakers and massively under priced :)

I personally would go with the 1,000. It has an amazing deep full sound. If you want the full movie theater style audio then the 1,000 is where it's at.
