Grizzog Posted August 31, 2017 Share Posted August 31, 2017 They have a lot of bass, presumably due to the DSP used. I think it would depend on the spacing and how the other shelves interact with the port. When I used them, I had them on a desk against a wall with the port only 2-3" from the wall and they worked great - not boomy. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Moderators Youthman Posted October 18, 2017 Author Moderators Share Posted October 18, 2017 Well the RB-61 II came in today and I could not be any more pleased! Absolutely LOVE these speakers. Crystal clear with a solid bottom end. It took awhile to find the right pair but in the end, it was COMPLETELY worth it. I know I made the right decision by going with them. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Had you heard the 61-II's before you got these? And where did you pick them up? I think you had the 61's, not sure about the II's. I like the sound of woofers right in that 6.5 to 7" range, especially for voice. I don't want to influence you in a bad way, but a little 10" sub would fit nicely under that desk and add a full sound to that bottom end without having to crank the sound. Just sayin'.

Yes, I used to own RB-61 but at the time, didn't have a place for them so I sold them. 6 hours ago, wvu80 said: And where did you pick them up? Found them in Tennessee on Craigslist and contacted the seller about shipping. 6 hours ago, wvu80 said: I don't want to influence you in a bad way, but a little 10" sub would fit nicely under that desk and add a full sound to that bottom end without having to crank the sound. I'm sure a sub would be a nice addition but I'm in a church office so I don't have much opportunity to turn it up. The RB-61 II have a very good amount of bottom end on their own. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
YK Thom Posted October 19, 2017 Share Posted October 19, 2017 Have a pair of 61s and had a pair of 61IIs. Both are fantastic and my belated opinion would have been towards them because of the front port - especially the way you have them set up, pretty much like studio monitors. As much as I would like an office system myself, I would probably find it too much of a distraction. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Moderators Youthman Posted October 19, 2017 Author Moderators Share Posted October 19, 2017 Now I wish I could buy another pair for my home office but even though my desk is huge, I don't have the depth to accommodate them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
