    I'm not denigrating the quality of his receiver.  I am just saying that he is working with a 7 amp receiver rated at 105 watts per amp.  I think he won't be happy with the sound he will get from RP280F's or RB8ii's (specced for 150 watts continuous, 600 watts peak).  Even RP-160M's as surrounds are on the big side at 100 watts continuous, 400 watts peak.

     

    If he is in love with that receiver, and in love with those speakers, I would actually go with a 3.1 setup and bi-amp the LCR channels.  Then he'd be working with 210 watts.

     

    My opinion, but I don't want to recommend a setup where he ends up under-driving his speakers and then wonders why he isn't getting the best sound out of them. 

     

     

     

     

     

     

    Boy i could not disagree more. Bi-amping from an avr is pointless and a waste of time. Sometimes it can actually do more harm than good.

    Anyone?  Have Cornwall's and tried Khorns ... all with mid and hi range tweeters.  But ... these(SINGLE)  horns just blow them away.  Is it because they are 2" (not sure ... could be 3") diaphragm horns?? 

    Cheers, Emile :)
