gadgtfreek Posted April 23, 2015 Author Share Posted April 23, 2015 So I am off today and tomorrow, it is 11:42am and no preamp yet... Just waiting, and waiting, and waiting... It's holding up the whole show at this point because I need to tear everything out and rerun, but if something happens and it doesnt show today I don't want to get crazy. Supposedly it will be at the store today for me to pickup, when, no one knows... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ceptorman Posted April 23, 2015 Share Posted April 23, 2015 Just curious, have you listened to your RF7lls yet? Didn't know if you were waiting on pre or not. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gadgtfreek Posted April 23, 2015 Author Share Posted April 23, 2015 I have not. I of course did not get the second one until Tues, and then had to get the amp power cord. I just started taking everything down yesterday evening. Kinda wanted to pull it all out at once, put it back together, run XT32 and be done with it...

Ceptorman Posted April 23, 2015 Share Posted April 23, 2015 I can understand that. When I do mods or change something, HT, bikes, or cars, I usually perform one mod to sample the changes of that one mod. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gadgtfreek Posted April 23, 2015 Author Share Posted April 23, 2015 (edited) I had so many moving parts on this one. Other amp had to go before this one got here, only one speaker.... It was a mess LOL. I took some down because the preamp was supposed to be here today, but... I do have a new power center that will arrive within the hour. Once it does I am gutting the stand and re-running all the power cables. Edited April 23, 2015 by gadgtfreek 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ceptorman Posted April 23, 2015 Share Posted April 23, 2015 That sounds like fun. My HT center is in a corner on a 45 degree angle, I can get behind it, I like to hang out back there sometimes! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gadgtfreek Posted April 23, 2015 Author Share Posted April 23, 2015 (edited) LOL. I have a UPS down there that is coming out, a Tivo that is leaving, lot of junk that needs to go. Just shortening the speaker cables will be nice too, they were way too long. I am currently running a 1.2 system (center and two subs). Wonder how that will rock? Tivo opens the slot that the marantz will go next month, once I get a RC64ii. Edited April 23, 2015 by gadgtfreek Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ceptorman Posted April 23, 2015 Share Posted April 23, 2015 A 1.2 might sound awesome…with the right movie I'll bet those RF7lls will sound better than you think they will. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Moderators Youthman Posted April 23, 2015 Moderators Share Posted April 23, 2015 How do you like the locking banana plugs? I love mine! Wish I had more. No more banana plugs coming loose. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gadgtfreek Posted April 23, 2015 Author Share Posted April 23, 2015 Those GLS Audio locking ones are cool! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gadgtfreek Posted April 23, 2015 Author Share Posted April 23, 2015 Well, Marantz did not make in today %$&%^$^%$!!!!! Anyways, hopefully will be here tomorrow, so I went ahead and pulled the stand out and moved all my gear around. Instead of the preamp sitting up on top next to the center, which can't happen if I get a 64ii, it will be right in the middle (empty hole). Tivo is moving out of system, so I put the power center, Oppo and Hopper all on the left. Will look pretty good once I get the AV7702 in there.
