3 ohm ht speakers

[sue bee 10+ year member]

they're huge and hideous imo. sorry, apperciate the advice tho. and uh, again, i paid $50 for the receiver, $700 anything is beyond my price range. nobody has anything for me in the 4 ohm area?

Ok, they are huge, hideous I'm going to have to dissagree with you on that one though...

i'm thinking if you post anything he/she doesnt want to hear he/she is just going to ignore you or disagree so there is no point

IMO let he/she buy 4ohm speakers and fry the amp the first day since he/she is to stubborn to take advice

LOL at a $50 receiver being able to drive a 3-4ohm load though

you're just butt hurt because of all the things that exist in life, i'm better than you in all of them except car audio. oh and how will i ever repay you for telling me to get 6 ohm speakers? what? paradigm? aren't those like hundreds of dollars when i spent $50 for a receiver? no, no, don't worry, that's great advice. thanks.

I totally understand if you don't like the way they look, but the smaller Maggies are not huge (four feet tall, a litte over a foot wide, and 1.25" thick) and match room decor quite well. The bass from them (when properly set-up) is surprising. It is not one-note midbass, but is simply "right."

Hmmm, not related to the thread, but...

Thanks for the tip on the Maggies. I have heard of them....but not auditioned them. I will now, though. They sound like something I might like. I'm more of an accurate sound guy than a "one note bass" guy.

You will most likely LOVE them then, they are extremely clear and just sound Nice.

How much does the op want to spend on speakers? Dunno but if someone spent $50 for the receive I doubt they are gonna want to spend over $200 for speakers, and in that case best thing to do is go ebay used route.

Use the receiver as an amp, and a pair of Sennheiser HD580's would probably work pretty decent.
