The words series or parallel are very specific. If one reads them in the description or instructions, the definitions need to be very clear to everyone involved.

Yes, having an independent stereo set-up in the same room with a home theater system is just an excuse to buy more wires. 😁

You have an impressively large subwoofer.. Have you decided where to place it?

PA subs are often not suitable for home/hi-fi use, because they don't reach into the lowest octave or two. They're not intended for accurate sound reproduction in a quiet living room, they're designed to get everyone dancing/pogoing/swaying, etc. The lack of extreme bottom end is intentional, because in live sound applications, with unpredictable audience numbers and locations in a club setting (some on the dance floor/mosh pit, some at the tables or bar), the lowest bass notes just muddy up the sound, rather than conveying pleasantly and accurately what the artist is doing. Even if the subs in the concert system can go very low, the sound person will usually roll off the deepest bass, in order to keep the sound clean and clear.
Information worth repeating.

AT&T brought some fiber optic line down my road....came halfway down, turned uphill to a new "subdivision" (a location that went from two houses to four houses.
Any word on an extension to your house?

Installing the new equipment rack gives me good reasons to re-arrange and re-wire the place. My Pioneer Elite AVR is now passive bi-amp power for one pair of Klipschorns. The MCACC acoustic room calibration performed its adjustments and this is one great sounding stereo.

It is good that the testing and methods will be updated. The multi-channel amplifiers need a standardized test and all the amps ordered online and drop shipped from overseas need to be honestly measured and rated.

Now I have an extra hole in the top that I wish was not there.

You can cover the hole with one if so desired...you may have to enlarge the diameter of the hole to fit the cap being they only get so small. Or a dummy screw if you have clearance.
Use a really good looking bolt head and it will appear like it has a reason for being there. 😄

... when you compare a real analog recording with a MoFi digital processing. If no one can distinguish it, then it becomes just a legal problem ... when it comes to the question of the truth of the product's claim.
This case may prove that people will hear what they want to hear, until they find out it is not what they thought it was.

The DE-120 driver is a good choice.

Have an old Yamaha power amplifier that had not been plugged in for years. Still works and sounds great.

The JBL Everest would be the closest comparison to the Jubilee wouldn't it?
Probably yes. I have heard the K2 9900. I like them, but prefer my Klipsch KPT speakers.

I just read up about your Denon AVR-A100. That is nice!
I would be able to get good sound from a pair of RF7 II with the A100, and Audyssey calibration and some EQ adjusting. (Maybe some room acoustic treatment, also).
The limiting factor is how loud the speakers are able to play.

if it is possible with this speakers of course.
Depends on how loud you play them during your parties. I would get some extra speaker wire, remove the metal jumper strips from the speaker binding posts and passive bi-amp your speakers and Denon system. Perform the Audyssey set-up with the microphone on a tripod in the middle of the room. Then I would use the Denon EQ menu to boost the bass. This can be done for the price of some inexpensive speaker wire.
You didn't say if you have a subwoofer, so you may want to buy a GOOD subwoofer for less money than a new amplifier and you will then have a great party system.

I never heard the wall of speakers mentioned above, but did experience being "in the zone", 10th row center, at a 90's Grateful Dead concert. The imaging was very impressive.

One way to get around that IEC cutting out is to do what Maynard just told me he does. From his pen: I get around the IEC socket dilemma by using a hard wired cord and strain relief.
I usually prefer a hard wired power cord. The only benefit I get from the IEC cord is to swap out different lenghts, but I don't even do that.

I've got my stuff in a closet (which is next to garage). It has louvered doors on the front so SOME air can get in there.... I've thought about how to get heat out but, it doesn't seem to be a major issue as I usually have doors open when in use...
My equipment was previously in a closet with an open front and back. I had a quiet little fan in the closet. Just a small draft to stir the air around the amps is very helpful to reduce hot spots.

That's a Server Rack. 😀
Functions very well for my audio equipment. The extra depth in back for power outlet strips and wire management is handy. Mine also has ventilated shelves with 4 corner mount bolts to support any gear without rackmount ears.

Is that where some optional feature may have gone? Chimney/flue?
Good thought. Maybe wires or pipes also.

Yes I read that. My comment was more for the casual readers who might get confused by some of the wording.
