    Personally, I wouldn't use a y splitter. I'd simply go to the RCA input on the RT-10d then from the RCA out to the KSW-1.
  2. So if I go this route.... do the back wall and the sides, so how far forward of speaker and how far above? m What you can do..........is sit in the sweet spot and have someone run a mirror along the side walls at the same height as the tweeters. When you can see the reflection of one of the speakers, that is a reflection point and an absorption panel would be placed there. There will be two reflection points on each side wall. There are actually similar ones on the floor & ceiling as well....
  3. By the way; biamping is never a waste of money if done properly... I sent you a PM on carveraudio....
  4. TN = from Tennessee Rabbit = I used to ride mountain bikes with 3 guys who were all about 5-6 years older than me. When I would leave then on the uphills, they took to calling me "Rabbit"....
  5. WELCOME, HRDROKN~ didn't expect to see you here...
  6. You can get ground hum issues from your NEIGHBOR if there is over a certain amount of resistance in your ground. Make sure your ground wire outside your electrical box is bolted firmly to the rebar rod in the ground (which should be at least 6 feet). Also, it never hurts to check any grounding screws in the electrical box periodically. Heating/cooling over time causes bad contacts.
  7. I use a Sunfire Ultimate Receiver on an RF-83 surround system. Love it.
  8. Obviously, it doesn't know the words~! [:|] Seriously, this is not an uncommon problem. Many times it can be traced to poor ground or other connections within the amp, power cord or interconnects. The drivers vibrate the H#!! out of these devices & stuff can & does come loose. I'd go through all connectors including internal & check solder points where easily possible. That's the easiest FIRST thing to do. If nothing there, it may require service.
  9. no need; if you read the directions, I'm pretty certain you'll find it sums everything into one channel anyway. Usually, the right channel is the one you use if you only have one input...but like I said, they all sum it into one channel anyway.
  10. I find the imaging & upper range much clearer; I use a Benchmark DAC-1, but I know PS Audio makes some very fine equipment...never heard it though.
  11. The RC-62 IS a beast; I recently has to replace a horn and by itself (just the driver) must weigh a good 8 lbs!
  12. I had a couple of problems with my RF-83 surround system (sub grill broke, right main horn blew out), and Klipsch shipped off replacements within 24 hours! I received them within a couple or days and now I'm diggin' my system once again~~~THANKS!!!
  13. You pretty much have to do a first, middl, last name column to make that work out right.....
  14. ^ x2. If you have bass-shy KLF-20s, something is WAY wrong. What are you driving them with? How are they set up? Room dimensions? Pics?
  15. I'm going to add my frustration with a couple of issues I had with Klipsch speakers over the years. I purchased a pair of KLF-10s brand new in a military BX overseas in 1998 & they arrived with one of the woofers wired out of phase. It took me nearly 6 months to figure this out. I purchased an entire RF-83 5.1 system almost 2 years ago and encountered the same issue, albeit there was ALSO one of the woofers completely unplugged inside. This sounds a lot like a QA issue with Klipsch's internal wiring. Also, I agree that there is a LOT of plastic in the new Klipsch line. As long as they sound good & the plastic is of good quality, I don't have an issue with it. However, when they make the entire front of the speaker connected to the horn driver so you have to disassemble the entire front to take out the horn. Also, the tabs holding my RT12d grill on broke during normal use.... THAT SAID....I notificed Klipsch & they have a new horn & grill shipped within 24 hrs!
  16. Geez; what would he think of me...I have mine crossed over at 40 hz!!! [:|]
  17. Depends on your listening level; I'm using mine in a 2-channel setup in a 36'x28' room with a pair of Carver Amazing Loudspeakers (III) and it gets PLENTY loud...
  18. I just watch Iron Man last night; I'll add my thumbs up to the rest of 'em~~It was GREAT!
  19. FYI: Carver Amazing Loudspeakers (ALs) are "ribbons", not electrostatics. The ones with the downward-firing 10" woofer are the AL-III iteration (last ones made by Carver). I have a pair; they have a bleached-oak finish (custom). You're right about the Sunfire subs; they were the first "micro" subs made...he sorta broke the mold with those. Pound for pound, probably one of the strongest outputs in the business. Not the best by any means, but they are pretty good, and you can run multiple subs out of sight.

    Wall-E

    I've not seen a bad pic from Pixar yet. The sound on their DVDs is incredible.
  21. I have a Benchmark DAC1 and it's awesome, if a little pricey for work...
