    If you're planning on using the RF-7II's for 2 channel, I'm sure someone out there has a good recommendation for an amp.

    I own a pair of RF7 II in Walnut as well, they´re quiet rare in europe, that´s where I life. I re-designed my RF7 II a bit , optical and technical .  Pics ´re from my previouse apartment.

    I have different options to power them up . With a Marantz integrated PM 11-S3 SS , Cayin Tube Monos 929 D, Italien GoldNote M9 Class D Monos and different Pre Amp options as well . With a solid transistor amp they sound very good , with a Class D Solution they sound much better than a transisitor amp, they´ll shot you into heaven using a tube solution , should have approx. 50 W /8 Ohm , maybe a KT 88 Amp integrated or tube pre and power stage like I have as well. But it´s w/out using the RC 64 Center , so a multichannel solution requires another amp. But I don´t want forget to mention that the origin RF7 II have a great soundstage even w/out the center speaker .

    That turntable rig is insane.  I assume there is a reason for the two tonearms, but if you already have perfection what does the 2nd one get you? 

    The reason is that my collection of cartridges needs a very light tonearm , thats the SME 3009 ( left side ) and a middel heavy tonearm , thats the MA 505 ( right side ) . They all have different needle compilances.

     

    If you want to get more aknowledgement I´ll kindly refer to read this thread

    Every 3 months I pay close to $5 k to the tax man 

    And multi nationals pay zero it’s not fair 

    Well, Germany is the tax world champion, from every singel € we earn , the net value after taxes is 30 cent , so 70 % are taxes .

  7. I was suprised from the musical beauty when I spun Steve Hackett´s " please don´t touch " today, it´s his second solo album after he left Genesis . Guestsinger were Richie Havens and Randy Crawford

  9. I discovered that Pink Floyd Album again, didn´t paid attention on it for many years , " The endless River " from 2014,  I must admit it´s on the level from  Floyds " Wish you were here "

    Rf7-2     not posted anywhere , ive gleaned that the subs use a 1.75mh and a 30uf ground 👍 very close to model 3 , very different from model 1

    You can get my RF7 II X-Over Schematic , I`ve drawn it a couple of years ago, ignore the red line , it describes a voltage divider for the high pass.
