  1. I used an RC 64 with RF 7 and RF 7 II's.  The 64 was made for the RF 63 and 83.  I use Pioneer Elite avr's and have not had problem with timer matching.  I would say try it, especially if you may upgrade the mains later.  You are on the forum often enough over the past several years, that this is most likely not the system that you will live with  for the rest of your days, lol. 
     
    A good avr's should be able to EQ the front 3 speakers without a problem.
     

    Yes, are you some type of fortune teller 🤪
    Most likely I will upgrade sooner or later.

  2. I have the 450c and I’m very pleased. I have no doubt it will sound better and fuller. I’m good at tweaking all the good stuff. I was just a little concerned if it would blend in good with my system.

  3. I have the RP 280 system 7.1. I’m thinking of adding or replacing the center 450c with the rc64ii. Will it be better or will it sound different? Has anyone tried it?

  4. Crap! I missed the Tuesday special. I hope you have another special soon. 
    Seriously everyone, this is an amazing center from a great seller. 

    I’m working on it [emoji13]. Gotta make time for trip and somehow convince wifey [emoji57]. She says I already have too many speakers.

  5. Just in case someone is interested. Klipsch is having a good deal right now. Buy a pair of floor standings and get a sub for free [emoji33]. Sub varies.

  6. The rc 3 seems to have a lot of issues. I had a woofer blow in mine. I saw a couple other post with issues too. I'm still not sure if I should replace the woofer since it won't be the original. I'm not in dire need anyways. I have other speakers but I do like the sound of this speaker.

  7. The 450C is a must with the 280's. They blend in very well. I've used the rf 3 II as a center just for kicks and I loved the way it sounded but ruined the soundstage. They didn't match. The rf 3 ii plays louder and less harsher. The 450c plays more detailed and over all better. It must be due to the cone size.

  8. I did a small sound test. I kept one speaker without touching anything. On the other I bi amped it with the lows to the front and the high to the extra/front presence speakers as the guide suggest. So I listened in 2 ch and I disabled the sub to be able to hear them at full range. I do notice a difference in the high/mids. The normal speaker (280's)sounds louder on the highs. More piercing and direct. The bi amped sounds smoother on the highs(like the thx ks 525 surrounds) as if the sound was coming between the tweeter and mid woofer. I could actually put my ear very close to it and it sounded more opened. As the normal one hurt to get so close to it. In my opinion, there is an audible difference. The only thing is that I use those extra channels for movies. I don't think I can use the surrounds for this purpose since the manual doesn't say.

  9. I have a doubt/question. I want to try and bi amp just to see if I can hear a difference. I'm going to use my extra channels on my Yamaha A1050. My receiver says "Extra SP" on the height/presence channels. Which I use for Atmos and DTS-X. I would like to keep those as they are. I want to use the surround or surround backs for this purpose, so my question is, is this ok? I can do away with the backs.

  10.  








    The reason I ask is many years ago I watched about 10 Amish home builders roll a fireplace hearth which was 8' x 3' x 6" thick solid sandstone into the house main doorway and another 75 ' to the fireplace then pick it up and set it on two pedestal mounts on the floor without breaking it.

    That's a lot of man power. We carry full slabs sometimes. Bout 1000 pounds. We use wheels but someone still has to lift for a little to get It there. You always carry granite sideways. Never flat, It will break. We use 4 people for big pieces
