  1. This is being funded by our company so i'm sure we'll be buying all new equipment and less sensitive to price.  

     

    I was thinking about spec'ing out three of these for LCR:  Is there any issue with setting the center horizontally on this model?

    And these for surround duty:

  2. Looking for some recommendations for setting up a theater in a office building.  The space is 22'-5" x 22'-10" with 14' high ceilings (roughly 7,100 CF).

     

    I imagine that our team will want in-wall speakers for a clean look, but i have no experience with the Klipsch in-wall offerings.  

     

    The room will likely be outfitted with a projector and screen that drops down in front of a white board.  

     

    At a minimum i'd like to get 5.1 in the room, but preferably 7.1.  

     

    Any suggestions?

    Okay, so no need for an amp then.

    I wouldn't go that far.  Most receivers dont produce nearly the output they claim...especially as more speakers are added beyond 2 channel.  

     

    I noticed a distinct improvement when i added my B&K amplifier.

  4. What's your opposition to bookshelves?  I've compared my RB-81s to my RF-7II's and found that the 81's hang pretty well at moderate volumes.  

     

    I think the Denon you're looking at would be just fine.  I like my 6300, but honestly think that my older Pioneer SC-1323 sounds cleaner to me.  The Denon runs much hotter than my Pioneer also so i had to buy a separate fan since it is inside of a cabinet.  

     

    FWIW, the order i purchased my gear was:

    1. Main speakers (2 channel)
    2. Subwoofer
    3. Center Channel
    4. Surrounds
    5. Atmos

    Speaker-wise, beyond 5 channels is the point of quickly diminishing returns.

    I've found my 7.2.4 atmos setup to be much much more immersive than regular 5.1.  Even non-atmos encoded sound tracks sound significantly better when distributed through an atmos system.  

  6. I love my RF-7II's for clarity and impact in a home theater setting, but not so much for casual music listening because i find them to be a bit fatiguing.  I've never heard the RF-7III's but i've read that they're a bit more laid back.  I think the II's look better than the III's.

  7. I'd like to add that the position of my rca cables makes a big difference in the "buzz".  I've pulled my console out from the wall a few times and depending on the arrangement of wires when it's pushed back in, the buzz can return.  

     

    As as you can imagine, it's a rats nest back there running a 7.2.4 setup with a separate 5ch amp and a DIY sub with its own amp.
