Hello everybody, I'm french and this is my first visit on this forum. Sorry if my english is not perfect.

So, first I'm starting create a home cinema room under my roof. I have a 64m² room and for the moment I have a RT-10D subwoofer and a RC-64 central speaker. I would like to know if I must buy some RF-63 or RF-83 front speaker to put in this room.

Many thanks !!

Bulldozer, hmmm... That's a huge room! Nearly 24' x 25'!!!

Must buy RF-63 or RF-83: On this subject, it depends on your seating arrangement and type of usage that you haven't specified e.g. Home Theater and Stereo listening. RF-63 or RF-83 would be great if you can get it where you live. RF-82 would be another option as well. Both RF-63 and RF-83 are discontinued and is replaced by RF-7 II, a newer Reference Series V. The matching 'Center' channel speaker for RF-7 II is RC-64 II. In your case you already have RC-64 as a 'Center' channel speaker and it might not be timbre/tonal match with newer RF-7 II Floorstanding speaker.

Few options you have at this point are as follows,

1. Buy RF-82 or RF-63 or RF-83 and keep RC-64 - You are really NOT compromising anything!

2. Try RF-7 II with RC-64 and hope for the best - The tonal/timbre difference might be minimal for your listening and in most cases not distinguishable!

3. Sell RC-64 and buy newer Reference Series V speakers, e.g. RC-64 II along with RF-7 II - All latest and greatest!
