Damn I wish I lived closer to MA!!!! Ridiculously awesome price for these speakers.

Due to the odd shape of my living room and limited surround placement options in my apartment, I'm wanting to upgrade to a 5.1 system so I've been trying to find some nice RSX-5s (or even RSX-4s) at a reasonable price for quite a while now with no luck. I've not really been seeing them up for sale much recently and when I do they go for a price. In looking around for the RSXs I'm seeing more RCX-4s available at reasonable prices. So my thinking is that since I can more easily get 2 RCX-4s for the same or less than 2 RSX-5s or 4s would the RCX-4s work as surrounds in my setup (see below). I would love to use some RS-xx surrounds but that's just not feasible. I need the wall &/or ceiling mount capabilities, flexible positioning and lighter weight of the RSX/RCX speakers. Thanks for reading and I look forward to your input.

Dean ... I also have the RF-3IIs up front and I actually chose them over the RF-35s. I spent about 8 or so hours on several trips to my local Ovation store here A/B testing various speakers. After narrowing it down to the 3IIs & 35s I even had the audio guy to blind test both speakers against other brands and against each other using various reciver/cd player combos and my ears preferred the 3IIs over every other speaker they had except the RF-7s. I've been extremely pleased with my 3IIs especially getting them for $550/pair as they were being clearanced to make room for the "new" (at the time) RF35s. Mine are paired up with an RW-10d and have mucho plenty low end for my 14x22 livig room. Hope this helps and happy hunting. peace, mitch PS ... Dean, I didn't see what your budget is but I saw these RF-7s in the Garage Sale forum, http://forums.klipsch.com/forums/t/100256.aspx , and I wish I had the $700 + shipping for these bad boyz. Very sweet deal.

What/where do you race?

This is just to see how quickly you can react to the screen changing NOT how well you can pick up a moving baseball, calcullate its speed & direction and then decide when to swiiiiing! For that, try this one out: http://www.hyfntrak.com/monsterbaseball/AFF25862/go.php The distances of the hits are IMHO a tad bit inflated but it's fun *&* addictive. My bests are 559' and 13 HRs in one round & best high score so far its 497371 in 80 levels. For real reaction time try this: http://www.pedregonracing.com/rt_game.asp my best here is a .003 (not counting NUMEROUS red lights!!) NOTE: After you stage it's a random time until the amber lights come on then it's .400 sec until the green light comes on Have fun & Enjoy! peace, mitch

Tweeking Fred's memory a bit more it was Tyce 'T-Bone' Carlson in 1997 ......

Neither! NHRA Drag Racing .... Loud music & fast(est) cars are the way to go! Besides, for what it would cost to become an Associate sponsor in IRL/NASCAR/ChampCar you could be a Primary sponsor in Drag Racing (MORE EXPOSURE ON THE CAR, TRANSPORTER & CREW UNIFORMS). Most of the teams that have hospitality areas right next to their pit area have big flat screens and sound systems set up in them and many have a separate souind system set up in the pit area where the crew works on the car. So why would this be better than the other racing series you ask? Well, when you go to a drag race you (the fan-sumer) get access to the pit area that is MUCH less restrictive than the other racing seriies and you can get right up to the pit/hospitality areas where you (prospective buyer) will be able to HEAR AND SEE these set ups. Heck, JVC has realized this advantage that drag racing has and signed a sponsorship deal with a Pro Stock team and is supplying the team with lotsa audio & video gear to use in their hospitality and pit areas. Then there is the fact that drag racing fans are extremely brand loyal to companies that support the sport. Just my 2 abes worth. peace, mitch

Hey Roseanne ... ummmm,, DaddyDee .... those are not speakers but as you said tthey are some sort of art deco-ish architectural feature between the solid lower part of the balcony wall and the upper hand rail part. Look here: http://www.perrymasontvseries.com/pmo_annex.htm Interesting observation tho. peace, mitch

Anybody wanna float me a 2 grand loan? I'm sure I'll be able to pay it back REALLY quick! Such a great deal in my own back yard & I'm so broke I can barely pay attention! [] peace, mitch

Are you sure you're just not under-height for your weight??!!??? [*-)]

What new products at where? I was home sleeping all day Saturday. Had a really weird dream about this little dude with a Southern accent that talked like he was jacked up on a case of Full Throttle energy drink ....could hardly understand a damn thing he said! Then it got even stranger when I heard this Aussie guy claiming that when he worked for Bose he had some KlipschHorns at home! Yeah, right dude ... and my butt chews bubble gum too! [] The rest is just even stranger with some really strange people I ain't never seen before talkin jibberish or some secret code that I could only figger out about every 3rd word or so. Then I woke up.
