  1. That is one gorgeous system srobak! I really wish the wife would allow me to have floorstanders. Instead I'm stuck with RB-51's! I might look for some floorstanding speaker covers though to help my cause. nezff, I can't place my RS-42's in the back wall because it's in the kitchen. My floor plan is open so the family room extends into this vacant space in front of the fireplace (where my pool table is going) and then the kitchen. It's about 30-45 feet long (I suck at gauging distances!)
  2. H/K Just came up with a firmware upgrade that takes care of most of the video processing issues. I have the AVR 347 and just downloaded the patch for it dated 5 March and decided to look up and see if there was one for the AVR 745 and viola! dated 10 March! Here is the link: http://www.harmankardon.com/product_support/product_upgrades_AVR745.aspx?prod=AVR%20745&prodname=AVR%20745&Country=US&Language=ENG&Region=USA ENJOY!!!! (I can't upgrade my firmware until I get back in port... Navy has me away from my home theatre... [:'(] )
  3. Y7, How are you liking your sub? I currently have the Sub-12 and am seriously considering pulling the trigger and upgrading to your model. Any likes/dislikes?
  4. Ah! NOW I see the light! I'll just make sure to try it on the different EQ settings when I audition the sub. Anyone else want to chime in with any thoughts/opinions?
  5. I just don't understand that "ping pong" sound you speak of. I'm just going to have to get my butt over somewhere and audition both subs. My concern is that the SUB-12 might be too "boomy" and the RW-12d is a bit tighter.
  6. Tucson eh? My wife is from there and I'm orignally from Douglas. Also have most of my family in Tucson. Navy has had us out in San Diego for quite some time now. I think I'm going to pull the trigger and upgrade to the RW-12d, I like the presets that it offers and it's only 80 bucks more for me. Thanks for the advice
  7. Cool, I think I'll follow your advice and stick to the Sub-12... now, I do have the opportunity to upgrade to the RW12d for 80 bucks more... do you think THAT would be a good move?
  8. Hey all. I currently have the following setup: Harmon Kardon AVR 347 Front: RB-51's Center: RC-52 Surround: RS-42's Sub 12 I am currently considering changing out my Sub 12 for the RW10d. Do you think this would be a good setup? My Family room/Kitchen is overall around 13' X 33' and the floor is all tile. I will be getting an area rug for the family room as soon as I can so right now acoustics is the main issue. Can anyone offer the pros and cons in changing out the subwoofer? Now, question 2: I have yet to mount the RS-42 surrounds. I am considering mounting them flush against the side walls around 9' up (the wife wants them out of the way). Should I go with the flush mounting or should I get a bracket to point them down towards the listening area. They will each be about 7'away from the center of the couch. Any advice is appreciated. Thanks!
