Same here. Everybody in the house is scolding me ๐ฃ
I'm wondering the same thing. I have the 5.1 reference and wondering if these would be an upgrade for 2 of the speakers.
Grandmas are awesome! These speakers are great. I've been using them as a 2.1 setup for my PC for a little while. Replaced a massively aging Logitech 2.1 setup. Massive improvement of course.
You will not find better speakers for this price (non used) anywhere.
Also that Klipsch sub that was here recently is not that bad
Really wish the ceiling speakers were on our loft, which is where we spend the majority of our time watching TV, but the living room they're in is our formal space that will eventually get used for entertaining but COVID has put a hamper on that for the last 1-1/2 years, so... ๐คฃ
Haha, I completely understand the dilemma now. I was under the impression that this was your main viewing space. This Klipsch center that is on sale will should pair up well (someone feel free to jump in and correct me if I'm mistaken): https://slickdeals.net/share/android_app/fp/641272
As for a receiver (or speakers for that matter), my suggestions will be two-fold. I don't know how other people feel about this but I run my home theater upgrades on a budget. I would love to have brand new SVS or Klipsch high-end everything but that's just not how I operate so I keep a close eye on Facebook marketplace for used equipment. In fact, I just realized that, before this Klipsch deal, every piece of theater equipment I have was purchased second-hand and in pristine condition for a fraction of what new equipment would cost. Luckily for me, the area I live in has no shortage of deals to be had on equipment from aging homeowners or folks who have done very well for themselves over the years and don't mind letting premium equipment go at a small fraction of what it cost them to obtain it. So, all of that being said, I think that if you have the patience to play the game of used equipment hunter for a couple of months, you can get a very nice setup at a very low initial cost. It has served me well and in just a few months, I have acquired thousands of dollars worth of theater equipment for maybe $500. I'm selling off what I don't want in the sets I pick up (at a higher price) and am pretty much breaking even on any upgrades I continue to make by finding more deals.
Now, the other side of this is for the people that really don't have the time/energy/desire to wheel and deal for used equipment (because it is a time investment and I understand that) or for those that prefer to buy new and utilize the piece of mind that comes from being the first owner of electronics that come with a warranty. From what I picked up when I was researching receivers I might upgrade to, Yamaha makes some of the most popular/affordable choices in recent years but that isn't too say that there are plenty of other great options. A lot of what you will want will play into price as well. If you want the latest feature sets like music cast via WiFi and Bluetooth, they are often a little more (though those options seem to be becoming more standard). Personally, I recommend a system that, at the bare minimum, is 5.1 with support to expand to 7.1. That option allows you to start small and if you choose to expand later, you won't have to reinvest in another avr right away. For the Klipsch ceiling speakers, you probably just want a solid 2 channel receiver since you will be using it primarily for music purposes. If you think you would want the option for a subwoofer in that space, that will be a factor in what model you choose as well.
Last, but not least, is the cables and wires. 9/10 people will be just fine with getting the proper gauge wire from wherever and pulling old cables out of a box that has their radio shack stuff from 20 years ago. That's fine. There is nothing wrong with that and, for some equipment, that is all that is even needed for the exact experience they are looking for. However, if you run premium sound equipment, don't skimp on the wires. It can be worth investing a little more in high grade wires and cables.
I just realized that I thought vomited all over this novel of a response. Hopefully my ramblings actually provide a small bit of insight and I invite others who are more experienced than me to correct, support, add their expertise to this evaluation. Best of luck!

For fronts or surrounds?
I've used this wireless system in my home theater and is has been fantastic. I tried the first gen SVS wireless kit and sent it back in favor of these. Price and performance have been excellent. I do have a separate 2 channel receiver in the back of the space that powers my surrounds/rears but there are very affordable small amps that are available to do the exact same thing and probably more appropriately. I just used what I had on hand and it worked flawlessly.

I bought two pairs of this last year for $90 each, and realistically think that should be their normal price point. These produce as much sound as you'd literally expect out of a small bookshelf speaker. These are amazing for bookshelf use, or for rear surround in a 5.1 setup, and that's what I have them set up as- one pair sitting on a shelf connected with a small 8" sub to a receiver for vinyl player use in my small home office room,, and as surround in my 5.1 large room with front towers theater setup. I connected these to test as front mains, just to compare the sound and range, and they definitely lack alot of mid and lower range to be used as full main speaker use... unless you are just wanting a cheap setup that rivals those "complete, all-in-one" home theater in a box type products to use in a small studio apartment. The sound produced lacks too much midrange and lower oomph, to be used as mains for a decent home theater or large room music setup. Just sharing my experience.

Should I buy these for a 7.1 setup when I upgrade the receiver? Or replace the RS10 with these? TIA
Too bad the Costco membership is $60. Ouch

How well do they work as desktop computer/workstation speakers? Are they too big? Do they still sound great at relatively low loudness?
I've been using a pair of NHT bookshelf speakers for around 10 years, which are hooked up to a Logitech Z5600 THX system - instead of the Logitech satellite speakers. The sub is plenty loud too! I'm not running surround sound, just left and right + sub with an optical out from my workstation.
