If you have to ask, you probably can't afford it.
what speakers do I have? I have klipsch Heresy's as my mains and a klipsch RW-12D. It doesn't sound bad for a college students setup. I also have a pioneer vsx-816k which is an awesome bang for the buck receiver but wish I would have gotten the 1016 though it's not much more.

Yeah they aren't bad at all either it's just they are horrible at reproducing low end. Without the sub they are pretty much all highs. I've been wanting to listen to the newer kliscph stuff like the RF-83 I've read that they are suppose to have lots of low end and sound great.
Find yourself an older pair of Cornwall's and forget the RF-83's. Think of a Heresy with lots of Bass! If the cabinet is too big get a pair of Forte's they are the same width and depth of a Heresy in a taller cabinet with a passive radiator on the back and dig down to about 32Hz.
I run an HT with 4 Klipschorn's, a La Scala center, and Heresy's for rear effects/centers. I used to have Belle's in the place of the Heresy's but they just take up too much real estate. Two Velodyne HGS-15 Servo's take care of the low end. All the crossover networks have been updated with premium parts as well. Dynamics and output are off the scale!

You should post up a nice pretty picture of that setup you got there. What do you run amp/processor?
There is a photo a few pages back. I am running a NAD T163 with the latest software and firmware feeding a Sherbourn 7/2100A. I previously ran a pair of rare DBX BX-1 amplifiers each in 4 channel mode. The Sherbourn was a bit of a compromise. I even tried a pair of McIntosh MC-30 tube amps on my mains but found the difference's between them and the DBX BX-1's negligible so I parted with them since they require regular maintenance.
I run a Denon DVD-2900 to a new Hitachi Plasma perched atop the center La Scala.
The level of detail is astounding.
