  1. Question for the experts. Finally got in my RF-7 and RC-7 and plan to set up when I get in the other stuff. I am planning on buying a plasma tv instead of another big-screen Mitsubishi, but now wonder what the hell to do with the center channel. I am planning on mounting the plasma to the wall, not having a table to put it on, so I need to figure out how to place the center. Anyone solved this problem??? Thanks!!!
  2. Pretty good prices on that website over what I can buy locally, but is it a legit website, is it authorized, or do I need to avoid it. Any help is appreciated.
  3. What is it supposed to accomplish, better sound, more power or what?
  4. I have been researching the Denon 3805 and keep seeing bi-amp. Can someone explain? Thanks!
  5. Thanks for the input guys. Fish, what features or "bells and whistles" would I be giving up going with Denon over Rotel? Like I said earlier, I probably listen 80% to movies/sports over music, but plan to kick back and enjoy music mouch more with new system. Jerry, you said you had a similar setup and it enveloped you whole room/kitchen area. I have plans to have the dropdown KEF's in front of the kitchen portion so that the surround-sound aspect will be tighter to the seating area, plus don't want to blow away the wife cooking while I watch the tube. You say 1 sub isn't enough. A 15" sub not enough? On the second floor, hardwood floors? Lastly, Jerry, what info can you supply to me on Rotel. Any additional help will be appreciated. Istari, yes, Custom Audio in Little ROck is one store. Great set-up, have bought from them for years, yet they are the only ones with Klipsch, so I have no way of listening to any other set-up except for Denon and Yammi. And since I don't want a Yammi (have one now), it is either Denon or guessing what else would work well with Klipsch. I am sure they have the listening room with the RF7's tweaked out to it's best ability, and it sounds great. Just want to make sure of what I buy. Those that say Rotel say "hands down" etc... but it is hard not hearing it with Klipsch. The other store in town with Rotel uses Kef's and others.
  6. One follow-up question for someone who truly hasn't bought in years. Please tell me cliff-notes version of what exactly pre/pro amp are so I can understand reading other threads. Thanks!!!
  7. Sorry, this might be a long question, but first time on here and need advice from someone other than a salesman. I am stuck here in Little Rock and have only 2 high-end audio sources to audition equipment (not counting Best Buy as a place I plan to spend money). Having friends who have owned Klipsch since college (early 80's) one of which dropped out of 2nd floor frat window and it still works like a dream, I am set on Klipsch. Here is my question for the experts here. 1). I am buying the RF7 fronts, RC7 center, and RSW15 sub. Here is my problem. My room is about 20 X 35 with the TV etc on one end, and about 15 feet on the other being a kitchen/island etc... So I have big problem using RS7 as sides and RCR5 as rear in a 7.1 setup. The friend setting it up for me suggest using KEF as the sides and rear (the ones that actually drop from the ceiling, creating a "false wall".) Does anyone see a problem using KEF's as my side/rear speakers in conjunction with Klipsch in front. I probably use system about 80/20 movies over music. And while I am at it, in a 7.1 set-up, what is the optimum placement for the speakers, sides pointing in right behind where the chair will be and the rears pointing forward from the rear? 2). With only 2 choices of demo'ing equipment, the store with Klipsch has Denon or Yammi's. I am not going with Yammi's and am thinking atrongly about 3805. The other shop has Pioneer and Rotel, and he strongly as do others suggests going with seperates, but I have no way of testing to see what works best with Klipsch, DEnon or Rotel. I don't mind spending a little more to go with Rotel, but I know absolutely nothing about them. Any advice will be greatly appreciated, and I know I will be having more questions. Just don't want to have awesome speakers at that price and mess up with the equipment. Thanks!!!
