  1. this isnt really the place for this, but thought I would anyway: My custom demo speakers (thats not me)
  2. sound distributors and acoustic sound design are good online dealers with good prices.
  3. I could be wrong, but at least 18-24 inches from the back wall. Mine are two foot off the wall.
  4. IMHO, I would just let the sub do what it is supposed to do and set the 7s to whatever crossover. But thats just me.
  5. I honestly think they were not set up correctly. I wouldnt base my decision on listening to speakers in a room you described with no room correction run etc.. return key six inches is not enought for them to breath.
  6. Well, I myselft, would think Chris is right in that statement considering his background. I just thought I would add that to the discussion, since the discussion was leaning toward "just set them to full range since they have ten inch woofers in them"
  7. here is a quote from Chris (Audyssey) Look at the last part, this is a answer to a gentleman that was asking about his sub seeming lower than normal after room correction. 1. Your couch is close to the back wall and the bass buildup there is telling the measurements to cut more than needed. Moving the mic at least 18" from the wall usually fixes that even ...if it's not exactly where your head will be. 2. Your couch is in a deep null (usually near the center of the room). MultEQ limits how much boost it applies because putting energy into deep nulls is not effective. 3. You have a personal preference for higher bass levels than the film reference that Audyssey sets. This is easy to fix: just turn it up for your own preference. The MutlEQ response is not affected. 4. You have been listening for a long time to an uncorrected sub with a big peak at one frequency. Once that's smoothed out some people report "missing the punch", but in fact they are now able to hear content above and below that peak that was previously masked. Finally, I hope that none of your speakers are incorrectly set to Full Range. That's a sure way to kill the bass going to the sub.
  8. I dont think by running your 7s full range will help tame any room nulls. That isnt substitute for treatments.
  9. It also could be your room. This question would be perfect on audyssey facebook page or ASK Audyssey at audyssey.com Chris will answer this quickly.
  10. agreed! If you want more Dbs, then get another sub. People think that if you have big woofers in your floorstanders, you should use them like a sub.
  11. Jason's two 7 footers in clean cut black, locking plugs, pants, and other ends left bare. One RCA 3 footer dressed in clean cut black with Canare ends and Belden wire.
  12. yes. They told me that they would replace my existing RF62s with the same thing but I would have to wait six weeks. Now, Im being told a month later, that is not the case.
  13. O, ok, so Outlaw told you. I believe it then. []
  14. On a side note, if my custom demo speakers sound good, I might be selling everything.
  15. Well, I'm not happy at all. The rude guy I talked to made it worse. I'm actually thinking about just keeping my rf62s. It's not my fault that their vinyl is peeling.
  16. Was called today by my rep from the place I bought my speakers. Was told that the six week wait I was told on the original rf62 was basically a false statement. I was never getting the older version like I wanted. I called klipsch myself and spoke to a somewhat rude person in product support. Asked if it was possible to still get the old reference rf62s and was told "not unless I build a time machine". I held my tounge and called my rep back and he said he would send a email to the guy he was dealing with. Crossing fingers.
  17. Please tell me where you received or read this information? Are you saying that it would be better to pay 300 more dollars for less power because outlaw supposedly tests their amps at full range(which is have never read) and emotiva only to 1khz? Total Harmonic Distortion: < 0.05% at rated output, all frequencies, 0.01% at 1 kHz. OUTLAW?
  18. [:|] Ive only talked to ONE sub guru on this forum, and that was THE EAR. He had actually listened and owned more subs than we will ever own in a lifetime. I would consider this guy to be more of a guru because of this. xero ruled a sub out because he called and couldnt get someone on the phone and ruled another out because he "heard" mixed reviews. IMHO, he is missing out.
  19. Note, simply moving from 12AWG cable to 10AWG cable of similar design reduces resistance by 30% which effectively makes a 50ft 12AWG zip cord cable look like 35ft (assuming all other things equal).
  20. Does that couch hamper the sound from the left speaker? Looks like it.
