Nicely Done.
Question for my old Denon 5.1 setup.
I normally run everything, movies and reg. tv in the 7 ch. stereo mode. Voices sounds great from the center channel just not getting the Dolby Digital 5.1 separation.
When the system is set up using Dolby digital for 5.1 my center channel audio gets very muddy but I get the effects going to all the other channels.
Is there something in the setup that needs to change or I should check ?
Thanks in advance.
Thx bro very helpful
You’re very welcome! 🤘
Flawless Presentation and very informational video, great job! Liked the video a lot
Thank you so much! 🙌
Great Presentation. You noted that your receiver is located remotely in a closet. I have a similar setup. I installed a Smartcraft IR emitter to control devices (Sony A/V, BlueRay, Apple TV with my universal remote. Remote seems to be working fine and sensor is definitely receiving the signal but my new Sony DH590. receiver does not recognize the signal. Could there be an issues with difference frequencies between the emitter and the receiver?
thank you very much
You’re very welcome!
Great video
Thank you!!!
@@ealanosborne i have a sony a90J oled. Right now I'm trying to figure out what kind of sorround system to buy. I can use my tv as a center chanel.
see that some are having issues with the Sony STR-DH590 sound set up dialing in the SW because the 'on screen' GUI only has limited options. have that model coming in the mail and have been reading (hearing?) all I can prior to installation. got the 5.1 Klipsch's myself to match up with this unit. a post by the cheapaudioman not recommending the unit because of this hassle has really thrown cold water on my expectations. I just may go all manual with the thing. as yet have the Klipsch's hooked up to a mini-amp (Fosi BT30D Pro) and they sound great.
Now I know what the 1 stands for thanks .
You’re welcome, Bruce! 🙌
Love from Pakistan bro❤❤❤❤✌✌✌
Giving you a like for using metric system
Woohoo! Thanks! 😁🎉
Wonderful presentation ... Keep up the good work !!
Would a passive sub use the same sub out or should it go to the front or surround port thx
Hello, I have the Logitech 906z 5.1 surround system, its great. But If I buy one of the SONY's will it make it better. Also I can make the image better if I plugged my blue ray or Ultra hd 4k player?
Thank you.
I have that same receiver it's pretty good I have it set up through optical you know just playing around with different connections I tried adjusting on my speakers and all that not very good at that lol so I bought the mic that should have come with the receiver but I bought it from the pawn shop so I bought one online and boy am I happy I did that because I was way off of my adjustments😅
Yay! It’s all about that tinkering, baby! 😁
With Personal Computer that is much simple and cheaper you just need subboofer amplifier and you are good to go.
I had my Sony av receiver connected to the hdmi port output but w/out an ARC indicated on my tv input but it is working , audio and video were all good
Oh nice!
Nice video and explanation. I just ordered my Klipsch 5.1 , do i need to absolutely pair it with a receiver? If not , how does the set up sound by itself ?
Yes, the Klipsch Reference Theater Pack is a set of passive speakers, meaning they can’t power themselves, and need to be powered by a receiver (connected via speaker wire).
Sony STR-DH590, Denon S650H are good 5.1 channel baseline receivers. 👍
@@ealanosborne Thank you for your reply. I might have to get myself a receiver too in that case ! :)
Great video!!! Just curious, if i have an older dvd player with only coaxial cables can i plug them into the receiver and get it on to the tv via hdmi earc?
Well eARC only applies to audio coming from the TV back through your AVR. BUT…yeah, as long as your AVR has digital coax inputs, you should be able to connect your older DVD player to it and select that same input in the AVR menu. 🎉
Subscribed, great work!
Thank you very much! 👍🙌
Any pros/cons to to plugging all hdmi cables into receiver theme one from the “out” to the tv vs all connected to the tv the tv and receiver connected via arc? As in, if your equipment is capable of both, is there still a reason to do one way or the other?
Just depends on your situation. Example: I have a media closet somewhat away from my TV, so I plug my Switch directly into my TV for a more direct connection to the Joycon controllers. Also, if you have a PS5 or XBOX Series X - since receivers have had HDMI 2.1/4K @ 120Hz problems - plugging that directly into the TV bypasses any issues like that. Otherwise, it’s usually fine to plug everything into a receiver. 👍
What are your thoughts on Sony HT-A9 soundbar system?
I need some assistance. I have cable box and a Roku, should both connect through the receiver first. But, when we want to just watch news or a TV show without going through all of our speakers how would we make this connection? We’d just like to use the TV’s speakers for news programs and regular TV shows. And is it possible to set up the receiver so that when we turn on the Roku box it “triggers” the receiver to come on automatically? Our receiver is a Marantz SR5010. Thx
Great video, I was wondering if you can explain the "crossover frequency" and what is the optimum setpoint, I've got mine at 140 but the max setting is 160. My speakers and receiver are old (Polk 6751 and a Sony STR -DG500).
Thanks! And the crossover frequency is where you tell the receiver to split the difference between a speaker and the subwoofer. Basically where the subwoofer will take over with low frequency sound. Those Polk 6751 speakers' frequency response dips down to 40 Hz, so you typically want to set the crossover frequency 10-20 Hz above that. So I'd go with 60 Hz, for example. Make sense? 😀
Make sense, I appreciate the information. that was really helpful, I do notice a difference in the quality of the sound.
By the way, does setting it up higher than 60 harm the speakers?
@@wesvill7565 No, not at all. You could set any speaker’s crossover to 150 Hz, but then you’re robbing the speaker of some mid-low frequencies that help give it a fuller sound. THX standard is 80 Hz, so you could also test that to see if it works better in your situation.
Speakers arrive tomorrow, all other items already here... video posted just in time for set up (sometimes I fell like I'm on The Truman Show 🤔)..... hehe thank you good sir!
Haha, you’re welcome! Can’t wait until you get it all set up!
@@ealanosborne lol me too, I'll let you know!
What's up with your setup? Super?
@@safwandalbadalsa8388hey sorry I just saw this. But it sounds great! I had to reconnect, so I'm back now 😄
Hello friend. My receiver is shutting off when the sound gets to a climatic part in whatever it is I am watching. Any idea why this is happening?@@ealanosborne
The white strip on the wire is positive
A Sony rep said I could connect my Sony soundbar HT-MT 300/301 to the sony STR-DH590 for more juice in my sound is this true? Would that work?
I’m not familiar with that soundbar at all, so your guess is as good as mine. The HT-MT300 doesn’t seem to have any audio outputs - just inputs - and those inputs are limited to optical and 3.5mm.
The only outputs on the DH590 are from the speaker terminals or HDMI, so you’d have to get a little creative with adapters just to make it work. I’m not seeing it, but I’d love for a Sony rep to show me how it’s done, because I’d be very interested in knowing how to pull that off. 🙌
My new Onn TV does not want to recognize the computer if the HDMI comes from the output of the reciever, only if the HDMI from the computer is connected directly to TV. Although come to think of it, in both cases I have connected the Optical cable from TV to the reciever if that makes a difference. I wonder why it would.
Also when I go on RUclips which I spent most my time at, Playing youtube directly from TV and receiver, the sound is 20 times louder, than through the computer. It almost gave me a heart attack today when I happen to stumble on it. I just purchased this tv yesterday.
My previous TV was able to recognize the computer either way. The previous TV had one HDMI. and this one has 4 but that just gives you 4 HDMI options. My reciever has 4 hdmi input.
Loved the video, very helpful! I need the name of this song, please!
You're very welcome! And do you mean you need the name of the background music song? If so, I wrote that too! :) It's called "She Stops for No One." Here is a link to the album -

How many watts is this pushing out? And this vs the 899 deal from Costco what's better?
Don't they have the 5 speakers in Bluetooth these days now? It'll make it much easier.
The best video I came across after 3 days on you tube. But my problem Isn't solved yet .😊 Could you please tell me how to do it if it is possible? My av reciever ( Teufel Ultima Kombo 20) has only 2 binding posts each for left and .right speakers.There is no provision to connect center speakers.Now Is there anyway I could connect a center speaker? Thanks
No you cannot have a center speaker as your system is a stereo so that means your sound is going to be two speakers only. Stereo sound does not need a center speaker and has an excellent sound on its own.
Stereo is good enough for high end music systems and can be good enough for home theater. Before proper high quality 5.1 came along my home theater system was stereo and to be honest it was amazing.
What is best wire speakers home theater system
I still havent bought any speakers im still learning about all this, im gonna get a 3.1 setup, R/L and centre speakers with a sub, do i also need to buy cables for each one of them? do they not come with cables?
Yeah, normally you have to get speaker wire separately.
Now.. wire management
Hey Ellen just a quick question, can I somehow hook up a pair of powered speakers as well as passive speakers to my 5.1 receiver, just curious… thanks!!
No, unfortunately. As far as I know, I don’t think there are any consumer powered speakers that can have their internal amp bypassed, to be integrated into a home theater systems. I wish you could, though! 😄
Credit to the Slow mo guys for the video you used of theirs at 2:47
👍🏿
For a connection using the Optical input on the receiver, would it be the same as the hdmi arc? Plug everything in the tv, then from the tv using an optical cable to the receiver optical input? Is there any difference in that setup?
Audio-wise, they should sound the same. Although a lot of 5.1 AVRs nowadays are CEC compatible over HDMI which allows you to control volume and other features via your TV remote. So that’s nice, in case you don’t have line of sight to your AVR (like me, since mine is in a media closet). You can’t get CEC control over Optical. Something to consider. 👍
@@ealanosborne You not only answered my question, but I didnt know you can use your tv remote to control the speaker volume using ARC. That's awesome! Thanks. Literally made my life one less remote using my 2.1 sound bar now. I want to upgrade to a 5.1 sound system in the future so I am doing research using your videos and it has helped a lot! Thanks!
@@gabrielaceves6984 Hooray!!! 😄 Glad I could help!
I can set up in my new proposed home in Los Angeles.
Hey Ealan, Just getting into all this Dolby Atmos and just purchased 7.2 Denon AVR. I have a question. My Sony Bravia (8 yrs old) does not have an ARC HDMI input. Will this affect the 7.2 sound output? If so is there way of getting around this? Luv your vlogs thx!
It just means you won’t be able to have sound go from your TV to the Denon via HDMI, if you frequently use the smart apps directly from your TV (Netflix, Hulu, etc). But you can still get 5.1 surround playing from your TV to the Denon via Optical/Toslink, which your TV should definitely have an output labeled as such.
But if you have all your entertainment components plugged directly into the Denon, and you don’t use your TVs smart apps, then having ARC doesn’t matter. 👍
@@ealanosborneSo in order to have 7.2 Dolby Atmos I will need ARC? Or will that require eARC?
Thank you for responding so quickly and appreciate any information.
@@mikebass2700 Anything Atmos will require eARC, but again that’s only if you’re using your TV apps. If everything is hooked up into the Denon, no need to worry about eARC. 👍
Great video! I do have a question. Four of my speakers are in the ceiling. My problem is that I only hear the front two with my center speaker. The rear ceiling speakers are the surround speakers and I hear nothing. I’ve tested them in the test mode and there’s sound. What am I doing wrong or is it up to how the audio is broadcast?
Huh...what are you testing it with? A show or a movie?
@@ealanosborne A movie on Netflix. Usually the Netflix music note when you launch the app you’d hear with the sub woofer only comes out of the center and front speakers.
Do you have a recommendation on what frequency I should set my satellites speakers and subwoofer be at? I currently have the satellites set at 110hz and the subwoofer at 120 hz. Just wondering if you recommend anything different for this klipsch theatre pack 5.1 set up. I didn’t hear you reference it in this video.
I’d set them both to 120 Hz. I know the satellite speakers can go down to 110Hz, but a little buffer of 10Hz is good to have. 👍
@@ealanosborne Sorry but this might be a very basic question, does that mean if I set the satellites at 120hz, any frequency below 120hz will be routed to the subwoofer instead?
@@warrior15r correct. So the subwoofer handles all the low-end audio, since those little satellites can’t go that low at all. 👍
@@ealanosborne Awesome, thank you. Makes sense. Changed satellites to 120hz. Love these speakers.
I have the same STR-DH550, but once when I wanted to check my subwoofer cable because the sub was acting weird, the cable touched a wrong part apparently and a small explosion happened, now something is stuck in one of my subwoofer out ports, have no clue how to get it out but I can't put a cable in it anymore, the other one works fine, but I am limited to .1 instead of .2 now.
And btw it SUCKS that it doesn't pass through HDR.........
If you wanted to add two atmos speakers where would you place them above you to closer to the tv angled towards you?
Above your head gives you a bit more spatial awareness, since it’s a more discrete third dimension you’re adding. BUT...putting them above the TV angled towards you gives you the “wall of sound,” which gives you the illusion that your TV is massive. Both are rad. 😀👍
@@ealanosborne again thanks for the quick response setting your 1500 atmos system keep it up man enjoying it all
Question can you use banana plugs on the speakers. Also what do you use to wall mount them?
Yes, you can use standard banana plugs with the style of speaker terminals that are on the receiver in this particular video (they’re called 5-way binding posts).
With spring loaded speaker terminals, since the hole to insert the speaker wire is smaller, you’d want to get “pin banana plugs,” since they have skinnier tips. 👍
I have a new LG 657 home theater system 100w 5.1 . Afters connecting the four speakers ,sound bass is too low what can do to improve the bass quality. Thanks
Wow, haven’t dealt with that system before. Is there an app for it that you can download? So that you can fine tune any adjustments to the speakers or subwoofer specifically? Sorry I don’t have more info for you.
What mount did you use for your klipsch speakers? I recently bought one.
These did the trick just fine!

It's ok to connect 3ohms speakers to 4 ohms amplifier?
I have the klipsch reference pack and the yamaha v385, and the sub is connected wirelessly. My question is where should i set the crossover/low pass knob?
120 Hz, since the Theater Pack satellites only reproduce sounds down to 110 Hz. So the sub will fill in the rest. 🤘
@@ealanosborne thanks!
Hello what if i only want to use my smart tv will optical cable send sound to the speakers? Thx
Yes! As long as there’s an optical input on the receiver, that’s definitely possible. And I honestly don’t know if any modern receiver doesn’t have an optical input, so you should be good! 😁
Hi Ealan! I just recently purchased the Klipsch Reference Theater Pack and a Sony STRDH790 and realized that I need speaker wire. The Klipsch instruction manual says to use 18-gauge or larger speaker wire but the product you linked to in the description only has 14 and 16-gauge options. Does the gauge matter at all?
Thicker gauge will last longer, and is stronger. But for those terminals, I’d actually go with 16-gauge. The spring loaded binding posts have pretty small holes, so 16-gauge will fit better. 🤘
@@ealanosborne Thank you so much Ealan! Appreciate it! Love the channel btw!
@@ealanosborne It’s alive! It all arrived yesterday and I just finished connecting everything about an hour ago.

If I want to run an Xbox Series X, a receiver and a projector, everything goes IN to the receiver and the only thing going OUT of the receiver is to the projector? I haven’t purchased the receiver yet but some advertise as having only 1 HDMI input. This setup would exclude me from adding any other audio source (like a turntable for music), correct?
If everything is connected to the receiver, yes - you would only need 1 HDMI cable going out to your projector.
Most receivers nowadays have many HDMI inputs - at least 4, I think. And a lot come with phono input support for a turntable. So if it also has a phono input, you’re golden. 🤘
I have an old Sony STR-K7000 that has 3 HDMI ports, labelled DVD, VIDEO2 and VIDEO out, anything I plug in to VIDEO2, the audio only comes out from the TV, not from the receiver; I connected the firetv or the blu-ray to video2, but sound only comes out from the TV, am I missing a connection or that is just how is it designed. I connect a karaoke machine to the front VIDEO3 (RCA) and the sound comes out from the receiver. Thanks for your video/reply.
Also, I connect a karaoke machine to the VIDEO2 (RCA/composite) and the sound comes out from the receiver. Thanks again.
Hi Ealan, what can you suggest speaker wire Brand and Gauge? I have no Idea what to buy. And lastly I got my Klipsch 5.1 in Costco, so what Receiver can you suggest my budget is around 400$ to 500$
You can get away with 16 gauge speaker wire, but 14 is more robust (and thicker), so it will last you longer. Here’s a link on Amazon -
amzn.to/3lxpvJy
As far as a receiver, do you have a Costco membership? They just released the Onkyo TX-NR6050 which is 8K/HDMI 2.1, so nice and future proof. Or they also sell the Denon s760h which is equally as great. If not Costco, the Sony DH790, Yamaha RX-V6A, or Denon X1600h, although a lot seem to be out of stock right now. Supply chain issues, etc. These are all 7 channel receivers, too, so you have 2 more channels to play with if you decide to get 2 more speakers down the road. 🤘
@@ealanosborne Thanks Ealan for the reply, I saw the price in Costco it's over my Budget, If you don't mind me asking on a different model is a good working Onkyo Tx-Nr818 for $300 is ok for my Klipsch 5.1? Please don't judge me for my Literacy on AVR stuff... my Budget concerns really tight for working less hours and I just wanna make my wife happy on her 50th Birthday and I have a very slim chance in making a mistake. I will follow your advice for the speaker wire. With your experience and expertise that is priceless 👌 ❤ stay safe my friend, Jojo

Hi, I have denon 7.1 receiver and klipsch 5.1 reference pack. I want to add 2 in-ceiling Klipsch speakers. Can you plz suggest what goes best with this setup I have. Thanks...
I’d stick with Klipsch for your in-ceiling speakers. To stay in the same quality range as your Reference Theater Pack, I’d maybe get these (below). Pretty inexpensive, which you can upgrade later.
Klipsch CDT-2650-C II In-Ceiling Speaker - White (Each) , black www.amazon.com/dp/B0074XL4GK/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_api_glt_fabc_2H3TCXNNBTWFWRBSS383
Thanks Ealan
Does Onkyo TX-NR616 match to Jamo S 606 hcs 3 complete with all 4 surround speakers?
Sure! That receiver should be able to power the Jamo system just fine! 👍
@@ealanosborne Thank you!
I have done everything as it should be, but when i turn volume up or music gets high volume, the receiver says “protection” and shuts down.
I have Sony STR-DH520
Whoa…I’ve never seen this error before. I’m not sure what to say, since there could be many factors that cause it. I found this article to help possibly troubleshoot this problem.
