cornfedksboy Posted September 3, 2011 Share Posted September 3, 2011 Love the speakers and the Marantz! That TV looks a little anemic in your room... [] Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Moderators Youthman Posted September 3, 2011 Moderators Share Posted September 3, 2011 Brad, your room and pics look great. It makes me want to upgrade to some fast glass for my Nikon D90. Love the depth of field in the pics from your 2.8 lens. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

picky Posted September 5, 2011 Share Posted September 5, 2011 It's very exciting to see it all come together. It looks wonderful and it's easy to see you are a true perfectionist. Huge kudos to you! Congratulations on a splendid job! Thanks for sharing all the high-quality photos, too! -Glenn Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rippyman Posted September 15, 2011 Author Share Posted September 15, 2011 Love the speakers and the Marantz! That TV looks a little anemic in your room... It's a 60" LG, good enough for now. Looks tiny in the room, I know. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cornfedksboy Posted September 15, 2011 Share Posted September 15, 2011 I figured it was a big TV, but your room and speakers are so large that it's hard to tell. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
root0 Posted September 16, 2011 Share Posted September 16, 2011 Wow those photographs are great! I think the most stunning thing though was that that's a 60" TV I saw those pictures and thought "Why does he have a 46" TV in there.) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Its 15.6' wide and 16' long with 9' ceilings. Almost square. Have you considered heights at all?? I don't think you have enough width for wides but heights you most defianatly do and I would! I would go with RB-61II. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

toddvj Posted September 28, 2011 Share Posted September 28, 2011 Very nice. Those Reference 7 Series II look awesome. I love the copper feet on the RF-7. The room looks incredible. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Echobase Posted September 28, 2011 Share Posted September 28, 2011 Rippyman,how does the marantz sound with the klipsch? Ive got the same front 3 and was also looking at the sr7005. Looks great by the way! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rippyman Posted September 28, 2011 Author Share Posted September 28, 2011 Rippyman,how does the marantz sound with the klipsch? Ive got the same front 3 and was also looking at the sr7005. Looks great by the way! Sounds amazing, but I haven't really enjoyed it yet. The couch I ordered arrived and ended up not fitting into my basement, so I've been forced to order a new setup. It will take another 14 weeks before it shows up...ugh! Even though I've sat down there with just a chair and listened to music and watched clips from my favorite movies, I haven't really enjoyed it yet. On a side note, the two subs you see in the photos are the Klipsch SW-112's and I'm not that impressed with them. It may be that the bass is being lost by escaping the room, but I won't know until the room is furnished and complete. This saturday I'm hooking up a James Cinema 15 to compare for giggles. I plan on doing a bunch of wall treatments and along with the new couch I'm hoping it will contain the sound a lot better. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I plan on doing a bunch of wall treatments and along with the new couch I'm hoping it will contain the sound a lot better. Is the floor concrete? It’s way harder to get good bass on top of concrete. Subs on normal floors shake the whole floor and that shakes your chair and you. But in a basement setup you’re going to have to get creative a little bit. Some people are happy with the bass they get but it took me 3 subs before I got the bass I was looking for on concrete. And one is very close to the LP. I know you probably don’t want to run wires because you did the wires behind the walls. You can get subs that are wireless. A few good brands for that are Rhythmic subs and I think HSU subs make a good wireless sub. Just looking at your pics I would look to put one behind the couch (I’m guessing at where you’re putting the couch) similar to how I have mine. I know it’s different but look to the right of this pic behind the couch. I have one sub there then two up front like you. The subs up front are bigger than yours but I use to have this same set up with 2 klipsch rw-12d subs up front and it was plenty of bass. I changed because the port broke loose on one and they dented the cone trying to fix it. By that time that model was discounted and ultimate electronics was going bankrupt so they just gave me my money back. I used the money to buy a SVS sub and then it looked funny having one small sub and one huge sub upfront. I sold the other one and bought the Epik Empire. Also your room is a lot bigger than mine so it might take bigger subs to pressurize that room with bass. Also just a suggestion I would put your spikes on your rf-7 so the feet don’t sink in.
