I HAVE RECENTLY PURCHASED A NEW SYSTEM
Receiver: Onkyo tx-nr 828
Speakers: Rtia7, csia6, f/xia6, tsi 100 & bic-acoustech pl-200
Zone 2: Tsi 100 & psw 108
I HAVE A FEW QUESTIONS TO THROW OUT THERE.
1) I KEEP GETTING A STATIC CLICK ONCE AND A WHILE DURING A BIG ACTION SEEN FROM THE FRONT SPEAKERS (C,L,R ) ? ( I HAVE DIRECT TV AND HAVE YET TO HEAR IT DURING A BLUE-RAY BUT VOLUME ONLY HAS TO BE TURNED UP HALF AS MUCH WITH THE BLUE-RAY )
2) I FEEL AS IF I SHOULD PURCHASE AN AMP TO RUN THE FRONT SPEAKERS AND WOULD THIS BE A BIG HELP? OR ONE TO RUN MORE SPEAKERS
3) I HAVE RAN 14GA WIRE TO ALL SPEAKERS! ( WITH BANANA CLIPS )
4) MY WIRELESS ROUTER IS RIGHT THERE WITH ALL OF THE EQUIPMENT COULD THIS BE THE PROBLEM?
ANY HELP WOULD BE GREATLY APPRECIATED.

I think your driving a lot of speakers on your AVR. It's rated at 135 wpc, but that's with 2 channels. Add more speakers, channels, and the wpc drops off. In a 7.x configuration you're probably closer to 70 wpc than 135. You have pre-outs, so an amp can be added, wich the front 3 would greatly appreciate. WOuldn't hurt the FXI A6's either if you decide to go with a 5 channel.
I don't think the router is the cause of your static issue. More than likely a cable going bad from the sat box. Could also be you are running all this on the same electrical circuit, without a power conditioner, and getting interferance through your line voltage.
I would start with the cable, add a power conditioner, keep that big knob below -15, and possibly drop down to 5.1. Add a 3 or 5 channel amp,and then take it up to 7 channels.
I'm sure others will have different opinions, and sure you'll hear from them.
Good luck and welcome to Club Polk -
I've read others complain about the static clicking with Direct TV as the source, but I don't recall the solution. Do a Google search. An amp is not going to solve that problem.

Thanks for the input!
I checked out some of the things you suggested and found out that the AVR has a bad rt front channel. so im sending it back and going to get a different model. As goes for the power conditioner that is a great idea and I belive it will help out because all of the equipment is on that one circuit.
