My last garage stereo upgrade was about 13 years ago when I bought some LSA1 bookshelf speakers to go with my Onkyo 2 channel stereo receiver. It sounded pretty good. Not audiophile good, but pretty good. Recently I replaced the Onkyo receiver with a new Onkyo TX-8470 strero receiver so I'd have more input options and I'm debating replacing the LSA speakers to better fill the garage size.
I've been researching bookshelf speakers in the $1,000 to $4,000 range and keep coming back to Klipsch Heresy speakers. Besides wondering if I'll like the sound of these for my music of choice, classic rock, I'm wondering if a lowly stereo receiver is adequate for the Heresy's. Then I noticed this pic on the Onkyo website with the TX-8470 with Heresy speakers.
Anyone have thoughts or experience with Heresy's with a stereo receiver? Any concerns with using them in the garage? It's got AC/heat but I only run it when I'm working in the garage.
