Well the day I always dreaded has arrived I am putting up my entire speaker system for sale. The package includes 2 RF 7s in Cherry 1 RC 7 in Cherry 2 RS 7 in Black The RF 7s are in perfect working order, they have minor scuffs on the top of their cabinets. One of the grills is broken. It stays on there but if you look closely three of the pegs on the grill are broken. The RS 7s are flawless and work great. The RC 7 is perfect besides two chips on it's backside. Works like new. I am only offering pick up only for these items, unless someone wants to pay for a pickup and packaging service to come pick them up. I live in Los Angeles California. My price is 2,500. if you are interested or have any questions, please feel free to e-mail me at Wperdomo.crap@gmail.com Thanks. Will

No it was the customers. I was working at the Marinda Del Rey store in L.A, and I would routinely see cutomers take off the grills and push on the cone woofers. Since I couldn't get fired, I regularly chastised stupid people for doing that because someone like you guys would wanna buy em' one day. For that very reason I hid all my stuff in the back all bubble wrapped and safe. I struck a deal with one of the liquidators and walked away with 2 RF-7's, 2 RS-7's, a RC-7, a velodyne II 12 cherry sub, a monster power center signiture 5100 and a cannon EOS 20D digital camera for 2,000 bucks. Unfortunatly we never carried the RSW 15, but I'm enjoying the sweet velodyne.

Now I have another problem. In my rear RS7 whenever a higher frequency comes up I hear this horrible metallic static sound. Almost like some kind of magnetic interferance. Fearing it was damaged I switched it to the other side of the room and it worked perfectly. I put my other RS7 in its place and it produced the same problem. I even tried my RS35 and it made the same noise in that spot. I don't think it's the wiring since I don't think wiring produces that response, could this be my reciever again?

Then it has to be my cheap *** reciever. Have any of you guys tried outlaw?? Since they sell through the internet there's not any way to really "audition" them without commiting to a purchase with their 30 day money back deal. Seems like there must be some sort of catch for the price.

Yes, that was the first troubleshoot I performed. I turned it down from -20 db to -35 db and still heard the exact same distortion. I even tried it at -45 db and still heard it.

Oh yeah, the sound design is amazing. I haven't heard a system work like that since Return of the King. The track is bass heavy though, but that seems to be the only instance where I hear any sort of distortion. Check out the Ferry crossing sequence where heavy bass is apparant as the tripods sound their horns and lumber by. My sub has been handling it nicely, I'm starting to think it has something to do with the audio compression of the 5.1 mix.

When I was working as a salesman at Goodguys, we used to have Bose reps come out and give us product classes and his speech went something like this : "You know the guy who comes in here and has a great ear and knows what he wants? Well thats not our guy, our audience consists of folks who just want no hassle and want something that looks luxurious" The rep actually said that his company is for the ignorant and they know they can't compete with actual audiophile quality equipment. The point is Bose's whole approach is they don't care what we (people who take massive pride in their listening pleasure) think, because they don't consider us a market for their products. They want to dominate the Home theater in a box crowd. Cept' their crap looks nicer and costs more. We're basically to bose what california is to Republicans and Democrats, they just couldn't care less what we have to say.

I think I've repeated this argument with my girlfriend over and over again. She seems to think Bose is the end all be all of audio greatness. I think women just have a weird thing for bose because they are "cute" and go along with an ikea set up. She also despises my set up, which is the entire Reference 7 set up, "she can't hear the difference" she says. I guess that what we get for living in the age of the IPod, where everything has to be tiny.

I actually tried that and the same thing happened. I think you're right, I know that Kenwood attempted to enter the high end market with their sovereign line and failed miserably and now I know why. I bought that amp when I was seventeen and didn't know jack. At the moment I'm looking into the Denon AVR4806 (considering I've got a lot of pals at Magnolia who went there after the Goodguys layoffs, I can get it for cost), I've also been intrigued by Outlaws 990 processor and their combo amp packages.

There's a bunch of plot holes in that movie you can drive a truck through, but I tried not to think about it and just took it strictly from the point of view of the survivors. I think it's a truly scary film in that sense. Especially the scene where the Tom Cruise and his family get overtaken in their car by that panic stricken mob, very scary stuff. Just overlook the fact that I think giant war machines buried deep underground, million of years ago would have been brought to the surface somewhere by erosion and the shifting of the earth.

I just got laid off from Goodguys, but managed to walk away with two RF-7's, an RC-7 and a pair of RS-7's and a SPL12II velodyne sub for about 2,000 bucks. I know they are all in perfect condition, since I was a salesman and knew the things never got hooked up. I plugged them into my Kenwood VR-5900 reciever. Everything sounds perfect, but I was watching War of the Worlds the other night and in the scene where the tripod first emerges out of the interesection and the dumb founded dip shits gather around in awe, the tripod releases a very low frequency horn, which distorted heavily in the lower frequency portion of the sound in my center channel. Fearing that my RC-7 was damaged, I swapped out my center with my RF-7 and it repeated the same distortion at that exact moment. Is it my reciever clipping at that frequency or is it some problem inherent in the audio compressoin of the DVD?? Anyone else have this problem?
