[DVD-A/SACD 6-channel switching question]

I am running a Sony 550ES sacd and a Denon 1600 dvd thru my hk520 using two Radio Shack AV switch boxes part #15-1952 $15 each.The boxes have two sets of inputs and one set of outputs which is all you need to switch between dvd-audio and sacd.The bad news is the extra set of cables.I have not detected any sound quality differences.

Good luck

[Sub floor shaker DVD]

I saw them awhile back and really enjoyed there show. I heard there are more then one Blue Man Group doing concerts.

[Sub floor shaker DVD]

Just got Bluesman Group Dvd music disc.Number #3 track TV Song will shake the floor and rattle the windows.Be careful not to turn up the volume as it starts out soft and cranks half way thru.Bluesman are the guys in the Intel TV ad who play weird looking pipes like drums.

Thanks Ear for the reinforcement I got the 2nd pair of RF-7s a little over a week ago.For me the reason was music it just sounded better to my ears

[new reference]

Saw a Klipsch add in Home Theater magazine August issue.It says eight new Reference Series speakers released.Does anyone know when and what is new specs.

Ad: Nina Storeys influences are unmistakeable but the passion this emerging singer-songwriter displays on her self-titled CD proves shes a true original. Klipsch celebrates the spirit of new beginnings with eight newly released Reference Series loudspeakers-all designed with Tractrix Horn-loaded technology to deliver the power of Nina's deepest blues.......

[2nd pair of RF-7s]

Just wanted to say thanks for all the input. It took me awhile to try out the Rf-3s,RS-7s and RF-7s. I ended up with extra RF-7s. First off Im no audiophile or videophile just someone who loves listening to music and now movies.I did gut out the rear wall closet to pickup more space. The room is still small 11x14x8.Are the speakers to big for the room-yes.Do the speakers over power the room-yes.Am I happy yes,yes,yes.Playing ACDC/stiff upperlip Dvd and cranking volume oh wow.

[2nd pair of RF-7s]

My current setup RF-7s,RC-7s and(borrowed) RB-3s for rears.Im returning the RB-3s which seemed overpowered by the fronts even when levels adjusted. Im considering another pair of RF-7s for each corner in the room.70%music(both 2channel and multichannel) and 30%movies. All this in a tiny room 12X11.Will this work or would RF-3 work better

Thanks

[Speaker placement reflections]

Thanks

I will try both ideas.

[Speaker placement reflections]

Im thinking of moving my ht to another room in the house(my wife). The room is 11 by 14.Due to the windows and built in's the only choice for the RF-7s would be 3ft from the left side wall and only 1ft from the right wall.The FAQ says 4ft from side walls to avoid reflections.How bad will this affect sound.Is there a remedy such as wall installation etc...

Thanks

[RB-3s as surrounds]

thanks toddjv

I try to read all your posts and appreciate your knowledge. I probably go with the RB-3s(my friends cheap)for now. But I hope to do RC-7s later

Thanks

Wata

[RB-3s as surrounds]

Just sold my RB-5s,RS-7s and RSW10 to my friend.My setup now RF-7s and RC-7s(my friend wanted the RS-7)I plan to get a subwoofer a little later on. My question would a pair of RB-3IIs or RC-7s work well as surrounds or rears. I listen 70% to 80%music in both 2 channel and multichannel format

[Rsw15 as second sub or?]

Thanks Ear

[Rsw15 as second sub or?]

Ear

Since I wont get a chance to test these subs except for SVS return policy.Are you saying the SVS Ultra,Revel and Hgs18(did hear hgs15 at dealer) are all strong for music with no favorite

Thanks

[Rsw15 as second sub or?]

Im getting the RF-7s and moving my RB-5s to the bedroom.New setup RF-7,RC-7,Rs-7 and Rsw10.I want to add a second sub such as the Rsw15,SVS Ultra or Hgs 18.Will the Rsw10 work when paired with one of these subs or will it be overpowered and should I go smaller. My room is 11 by 12ft.I listen 80% to music both in 2 channel and multichannel and 20%movies.

Thanks

[RF-7 for music]

Thanks for all the advise.I will go with the RF-7s

[RF-7 for music]

I currently have this setup RB-5,RS-7,RC-7 and RSW10 hooked up to a HK 520 rec and Sony c555 SACD player. I find myself listening 80% to music and 20% watching movies. Im thinking of getting the RF-7s and adding a second sub.I heard the RF-7s in a dealer and liked them but would these be better for music.A another buyer(former RF owner) at the dealer told me RFs are too harsh for music.Saleman said they are stronger in the high end.

Thanks

[Right mix on reference]

Would matching up RB-5,RC-7,Rs7 and RSW10 work well together.

[rsw10 auto on]

Now my friend wants a similar setup but wants RB-5,RC-7,RS-7,RSW10 will this combo work.

Thanks again

[rsw10 auto on]

Thanks Ear

You were right the RSW10 sounds much better then my friends KSW15.I blew my budget to hell starting out with Synergy System and ending up with RB-5,RC-3,RS-3 and Rsw10.Im no audiophile but the sound to me is great

[rsw10 auto on]

I know the RSW10 has auto on and standby.I have it plugged into a power strip,can I turn it on and off by the power strip and not damage the sub or should I just leave it on 24/7

[RB-5 II too much ?]

Thanks T-man

Cahnged my order and went for the RB-5s

[RB-5 II too much ?]

I have on order in the reference series RB-3,RC3II,RS3II and RSW10. The room these will go in is small 12ft by 11ft and I will be 5ft to 6ft from the fronts and center.Would the RB-5II instead of the RB-3s be overkill.Music is my main concern in mp3s and cds in both stereo and Pro Logic II
