I came to sell speakers but got some excellent advice instead haha! 1) The reason the surrounds are so far forward is because of the opening to the theatre, I placed them as close to the back as I could while being symmetrical (of course, optimally, they would be further back) 2) Should I use the already 52's as surrounds, and switch up to a 5.1? ie. remove the 81'S

Wow, that is really great advice thank you! Attached is a picture of the setup. I currently has the RS-52's on the wall (as you can see in the picture) and you can see the bookshelves at the back. I always worried I was quite close to the bookshelves, do you think this is fine then (as far as setup). If that is the case, I will stick with the RB-81s

Hey IbizaFlame, Really? The only reason I was thinking of swapping them out was the way they were designed for the rear bookshelves. Althought he RB-81's suit my needs, I was curious if the RS-52 speaker would give a better surround environment. Using bookshelves as rear surrounds is okay you think?

Hello everyone, I currently have the RF-82 home theater system and I am using 2x RB-81s as rear surrounds. I am thinking of swapping them out with RS-52's. I currently have 2 RS-52's already (as side surrounds), and would like another 2 to have a set of four. Thanks! My system: (1) RF-82 (1) RC-62 (2) RS-52 (used as side surrounds) (2) RB-81 (used as rears surrounds) (1) RSW-10D
