[RB-61 II and RB-81 II for Doby Atmos]

Better speakers for side surrounds since there is more content in side surround vs surround back

In Dolby Atmos too?

[RB-61 II and RB-81 II for Doby Atmos]

I have a pair of RB-81 II and RB-61 II (unable to find another pair of 81).

Now I have to choose which one goes fo Surround and which for Surround Back.

I think 81 fo back.

What do you think?

 

[Question: Some alternative for overhead speakers (atmos)]

I think I'll do my best to try to put 4 CDT-5800-C II.

Specs differences are enormous (comparing to CP-6) and I don't want "to destroy" everything. I.E.: A helicopter that goes from front to rear becomes a drone while flies over me!!!

[Atmos News]

Klipsch forgot somebody bought their speakers in cherry colour!!

[Question about RF-7 II : Distance from the wall]

Carpet is on the floor.

Not yet absorption material on the side walls (it's still a work in progress room...). Only a heavy mattress :-) on the left corner (waiting for bass traps) due to room shape.

I just moved the intersection behind me and I lost a lot a bass. Now I need Audissey calibration again.
For the time being, ​ I'm happy because the "flaccid" sound of drums disappeared!  :-)

[Question about RF-7 II : Distance from the wall]

I read in many fora (forums...) the RF7 speakers need at least 1 meter distance from the wall.
At first I did it but the sound of drum rollings were very strange. It seemed skin drums were "flaccid".

So that now they are closer but still there are 50 cm.

Is there anybody who has some experience about that?

 

Another question is: Your RF-7 speakers fire straight to the listener or they are parallel to the walls (or... something in the middle)? 

[Question: Some alternative for overhead speakers (atmos)]

So,

CP-6 is better than AW-650/525 and could be the easiest way to put 4 speakers under the ceiling but...

how much quality I would lose compared to RF7 and RB81 (and probably RB61 I'll add for surround)?

How much difference between CP-6 and CDT-5800-C II (apart the second costs double) ?

[Question: Some alternative for overhead speakers (atmos)]

False ceiling is used to create a space also if you want to put many little halogen lamps under the ceilng.

[Question: Some alternative for overhead speakers (atmos)]

Height is 3 metres (9,84 ft).
I don't hav​e false ceilng so I can't mount in-ceiling speakers unless I build some custom boxes to put them.

I suggest Klipsch to build them for me.   :-)

 

Gallery?

Best choice would be 16 (28 is too big) but... it's black; A punch in the eye! :-)

[Question: Some alternative for overhead speakers (atmos)]

Goodmorning,

the eye-listener speakers system I have is composed by:

2 RF7-II

1 RC64-II

2 RB81-II

 

In order to upgrade from 5.1 to 5.1.4 I need 4 more speakers; But...

 

I don't want to use the firing-up atmos enabled speakers because my room still has many reflections so I don't need some more.

I can't mount the architectural in-ceilng speakers due to my ceiling.

 

So, my question is:

Can I use the Outdoor speakers (i.e. AW-650) to complete the Atmos configuration (voices of God).

These speakers could be easy to install and you could manage the angle to optimize the source of sound but I don't know if the timbre of AW-650 match with the speakers I have.

 

Can anybody at Klipsch tell me if I can "proceed" with my idea or give me a NO GO?

TkS in advance
