What is the accurate frequency range of these? I use 4 Def Tech 450's and need a wall mount speaker running on separate amp for 7.1 surround.Help?????

Hey. I really wish I could help you but I have no idea on an ACCURATE frequency range. I remember reading some stuff when I bought them, but that was only what the company or Amazon claimed about them. I don't know if there's a way to measure, but I don't have any tools for that kind of thing.

Impedance 8 ohms: Sensitivity 85 +- 3db: Power Handling 20 - 100 watts: Frequency Response 130Hz to 20,000Hz

I purchased the "Dual LU43PB" indoor/outdoor speakers to go with this amp. They work well and relatively inexpensive. They are currently available at Amazon for the price of $38.85. The 40 watts is ample to fill the room with audio without breaking the windows. Hope this info is some help. Les----

I'm using them as fronts with a PL-28II Center speaker and PL-66 as surrounds they sound great I ordered two more FH-65B for wides I'm also running two subs the F12 and a Polk Audio PSW505 12-Inch Powered Subwoofer that I already had. At first i thought the FH-65B were a little too harsh but they have settle down nicely using my TX-NR818 to drive I ran audyssey XT32 and it set the cross over at 40Hz, I left it there so there you are i'm very happy with these speakers.

Baig, thanks for the thought on the speakers. I'm using a brand new Onkyo 7.1ch home theater set rated 130W per channel. On top of that, I've swapped in my old Polk Audio speakers for the fronts, which are rated 150W each. So power is not the issue!

These speakers are rear ported so wall mounting is not a good idea unless you use stand-off mounts. They should be at least several inches off the wall for best sound. For wall mounting, best to use sealed cabinet or front ported speakers.

Are they 2400 Watts Continuous? 2400 Watts Program? Peak? Is that the rating for each speaker or only one? What is the nominal impedance of each speaker? It is important to know all of these things to make the correct suggestion. I assume that they are probably rated at 600 Watts continuous (1200W Program/2400W Peak) because it is rare to find 1200W and 2400W (continuous) 15" drivers. Also, how loud do you plan on playing them? Do you need them running at full volume or do you just want to listen to them at "normal" levels in your home and maybe somewhat louder on occasion? Heck, just tell the name and brand of speaker; that will be the most helpful.

This is what I'm running and for the money you can't go wrong. Also dont be afraid to spend good money on your wire kit, its a big deal and will make all of your expensive stuff sound like crap if you dont use good gauge cable.

Do yourself a favor and read the manufacturer product description posted on Amazon.com. I have these speakers connected to a 5.1 channel A/V receiver for a small room. These speakers are small and not very powerful sound-wise. I purchased a separate sub-woofer to up the bass. As the other customers have answered you still need more speakers specially for a 7.1 channel A/V receiver.

I own two sets of these speakers. I use them for the rear surround 5.1 systems. I think they sound good high and low end maybe a little more on the low end but they are still clear on the high end. I don't know of any set of speakers that can match them for the price. Mow to figure out how to get them without UPS damaging them in shipping? Both sets had shipping damage by the time they got to me.DNS

I'm using these in a 7.2 surround setup, with my Pioneer 1123k. Just ordered 2 more for back surround, 9.2. @ 94db they should be able to handle your audio needs. They have crisp and clear highs, and mid range. The are not bassy, I use my subs for that. Just watched Captain America bluray, sound was great. Previous setup was Bose. The Bose had a tighter sound, but only 87db, I am hearing more with 94db. Yea I would EQ the bass down for these.

My receiver has had no problems. They produce about 140 watts. Sounds like your speakers can handle a lot more. Look for a bigger amp!

One would normally mount speakers in the way they are designed to be mounted. These are intended to be wall mounted to get their best performance. I'm sure Def Tech has some other surround speakers intended for stand mounting and I suggest going that route for the best performance.

I've got cats in the house and I have the speakers about as close to the wall and to my entertainment center (so they don't get behind the center itself!). Bass reflex response is excellent, even at close wall proximity, though I would say better low frequency response would result if they were pulled out a little. I've had these speakers for quite some time and they've been an excellent replacement for my old Cerwin Vega(s). Hope this helps you out.

My "go to" recommendation is the Definitive Technology Studio Monitor 450's. They are manufactuer discontinued, but you can still get a pair from Amazon Prime. They've got an unbelieveable response of 24 Hz to 30 kHz - - unheard of for a small book shelf speaker. The secret is a 10 inch pressure activated subwoofer mounted on the side of the unit. Best speakers I've ever heard. Don't take my word for it: go listen to a pair before you buy if you can. Max power input 225 watts. 13 inches tall and 11.44 inches deep.

Thanks, do you use 301's for all 4 surround speakers? Seems to me the back surround speakers do not need to be high quality.

Marcus...thanks for the input. Not the response I really wanted to hear, but the one I expected to get. I'l let you know which way I go. Anyone have a pro position on in-wall speakers???
