Roney Posted January 10, 2019 Share Posted January 10, 2019 (edited) Hi community, As stated in my title, I'm confused on how to install the RC7. It has 4 binding posts which are interconnected with some type of plastic covered wires. The red terminals are connected and the black terminals as well . Which 2 do i use? And do I remove these interconnecters or do I leave them there? Please have a look at the attached picture. Thanks again Edited January 10, 2019 by Roney Correction Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
USNRET Posted January 11, 2019 Share Posted January 11, 2019 Evening to ya. It's simple enough. If using banana plugs take a very small screwdriver, knife, etc to pop out one red and one black "plug" that in pressed into the terminal nut..push in the banana plugs + to red and - to black. If using spade connector loosen a red and black nut and slip in spade then re-tighten. On these I prefer bananas as I have found the terminal loosen over time with spade. They are made this way in the off chance that you want to bi-wire. In that case the jumpers would be removed. Personally I fine no advantage in bi-wiring...not to be confused with bi-amping. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ceptorman Posted January 11, 2019 Share Posted January 11, 2019 You use one each of the red/black. Your power source will have red (positive) and black(negative) speaker out connections, they connect to the speaker. Leave those connectors or jumpers on the speaker. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Roney Posted January 11, 2019 Author Share Posted January 11, 2019 I've upgraded from the RC62II. I thought my old center sounded weak after I decided to add an external amp(emotiva A-300) to the equation to power up my fronts (RF82ii) . There was an unbalance of sound there. Now with the RC7, dialogues no longer have to fight their way to be heard, if that makes any sense. RC64 is overkill and way too expensive for my blood. I might contemplate getting RF7s but that will be in the very far future. I have a 7.1 setup with all klipsch speakers except for the subwoofer(SVS PB-2000) 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I would say that the 64 has a slightly different sound than the 7 but better is subjective. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
