RF3 Tweaks or Upgrades


whell

Recommended Posts

On a relatively limited budget, I beleive I've started to build a respectable stereo/HT system. At the core is the Marantz Sr-19EX receiver. I recently added a Marantz MM-9000 Amp, connected to the pre-outs of the receiver, and am now getting much better bass response from the RF-3's. Other components include a NAD 555 DVD/CD player, and an Adcom 5 disk CD player. I have an RC-5 center and RB-5's for the rears (got a good deal on these used).

My question is as follows: I have the RF-3's biwired to the MM-9000 using Kimber 4VS speaker cable. The speaker cable are connected to the amp with bare wire. The amp is conneced to the receiver via Monster M1000i cables.

- Any audible advantage to using bananas versus bare wire?

- Any audible advantage to upgrading the internal wiring of the RF-3's (i.e the RF-3II's)?

- Any tweaks for the RF-3 that have any positive audible impact?

Don't get me wrong, I am in love with the sound of the RF-3's now. I see many references to "tweaks" on this board, and wonder if any that are appropriate for the model(s) that I own would have any positive audible impact.

Thanks!
