busht4169 Posted December 15, 2016 Share Posted December 15, 2016 I own the RP-280f as you can see in my profile photo. Love them to death. Clear, powerful. At low volume, they don't lose any fidelity. At high volume, they provide clear sound. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scrappydue Posted December 15, 2016 Share Posted December 15, 2016 For 2 channel only? 280's. For 2.1? 260's with extra money put towards a better sub. Same with HT. Crossed over at 80hz these two are impossible to pick apart. The extra money can be spent on the next model up in subs. My two cents.

Gandalf007 Posted December 15, 2016 Author Share Posted December 15, 2016 I was thinking about doing a 3.0 setup. I'm moving into a townhouse and I don't want to go too extreme with the bass.Sent from my SM-G930P using Tapatalk Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scrappydue Posted December 16, 2016 Share Posted December 16, 2016 Townhouse. 260 mains with 450 center. Save the rest for a sub down the road. Cause you'll eventually probably want one. Running mains full range is fine with music but with movies it's horrible idea. Lfe track is too much for mains to handle. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Are you saying a 3.0 setup would be a bad idea in that case?Sent from my SM-G930P using Tapatalk Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scrappydue Posted December 16, 2016 Share Posted December 16, 2016 If you have a HT receiver and you Calibrate it and there is no sub it routes the lfe signal to the mains. This is EXTREMELY hard on them as they are not made to produce that kind of bass. You can get around this by selecting yes on sub and then crossing mains at like 40-50 hz but it's gonna sound anemic then as you won't have much rumble at all then. It's doable but you gotta be cautious that's all I'm saying. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
