Will these be a good option to use with my Onkyo s3500 HT package. I did not want to use the onkyo rear speakers as I wanted something to go into the ceiling.

The sound quality of these rear speakers were really impressive - you will not be disappointed. I ended up buying a full set of front, rear, center Chanel and low profile sub because the sound quality and options with the Yamaha was really strong

great choice for in-ceiling... I am using a Sony receiver, but is=t wont make a difference

The only time the received pumps out the full amount of watts is when you have it blaring so loud that its annoying anyways. I listen to mine around 70-80% all the time and they sound great. You will be fine .

These are flush mount speakers as delivered. Unless your ceiling at the point of installation is sloped or you can build a mounting box that can position speakers you will need to find another type. We have not found it to be a problem with the flush mount.

I have an Onkyo HT-S5600 system. I use these for all 4 surround speakers. I had to work with the stands a little to get them to stand up. Although the surround speakers on the Onkyo are 4.5"x9"x3.5" and I have the stands sitting on carpet. I'm sure they would stand much easier on hard wood floor. These stands will definitely fit the Samsung speakers. They will probably stand up a little better too since the Samsung speakers are a little smaller.

It's not very practical to buy speakers, test them and then return them and repeat until finding the best solution. I'm sure going to stores and listening is good but it might sound different when you get it into your home setup.Do you have any suggestions on a good 5.1 setup for the onkyo 606 that doesn't break the bank?

They should work with the audio out connection. I got these speakers for my laptop and they work great. That's a big TV you have though. For it I'd consider bigger speakers although wouldn't know what to recommend. Something more in the home theater line perhaps. To provide the surround sound effect you are most likely wanting.

I am curious about this system. I have a very small room with only the ability to set up the the front (L+R), center, sub, and rear (L+R). The room does not allow for the set up of what Onkyo refers to as "surround L + R" which are supposed to be set up on the sides of the listening position. Will the receiver provide a decent decoding if I am using the speakers in a straight 5.1 type setup? I am guessing this is what the first post was asking but I just wanted to clarify that rear speakers will still be used and only the side "surround" speakers omitted.

Amazon asked me to respond. I have the AV40's. Use them with my TV and a subwoofer.....absolutely no complaints!

If you would like to mount a small receiver for speakers then I would look at other mounting options specifically made for such purposes. Using the Hyloft ceiling storage kit would be overkill. Whether you like the look, would depend on your space. These look good in the garage; I would not, e.g. put them in my living or family rooms.

Sorry for the late response, and you've already seen other replies to your question. These speakers are a great improvement over the TV speakers and the price is hard to beat. I use mine as part of a surround system with a center channel and two rear speakers, which really fills the room. Try then alone to start, and add to your system for the true surround experience if you so desire.

Yes, you could use these on a 2 channel receiver. I have a Onkyo 7.1 receiver 5 series and I am amazed by the sound of these speakers. I plan to upgrade to a Denon or another Onkyo to get more power out the speakers.I would say at least 100 watts per channel I am only at 85 watts per channel.

I matched them up to my Kenwood and they really sound great. All speakers are pretty much generic in their build and if this unit is normal powered, I'd say yes, they'll sound fine.

No I don't believe so. I have a Kenwood and it won't fit. I checked the user manual on the Onkyo and it did not indicated they could be used. Sure would be nice though.

You should be OK with these. I have 2.5# satellite speakers on these. Package includes alternate mounting heads for various speakers.

If you are installing only two front and two rear speakers they should work fine. If you are planning a 5:1 surround system they do not perform well as center channel speakers.

I have an Onkyo 7.2 system and I use these for my back speakers. They work great. Though they're probably over kill for the size of the room.

easy to install...sound really good I used them for rear surround speakers. I am happy with them

I can't really compare the new to the old however, I will say that they are an excellent choice for rear surround speakers in a 5.1 Home Theater setup. I have had several other rear surround speakers over the past few years and these for the money, are tough to beat. The build quality seems solid and there is good sound clarity. I have been very pleased with them so far.
