Bryant Posted April 11, 2020 Share Posted April 11, 2020 Hello, Considering purchasing a package with these components, I know they're older speakers. Trying to get information on whether or not I'll have issues using them with a newer amp, a Marantz SR7011. The package is $700, is that over paying? Thanks in advance 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wuzzzer Posted April 11, 2020 Share Posted April 11, 2020 $500 is more realistic. ...and the bookshelf and center do NOT have 8" woofers. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The RB-35 package is a very nice setup that will have good impact. No issues whatsoever unless abused, under driven, or dropped at some point. The subwoofer(15+ years) is a bit long in the tooth so amplifier issues "could" be a problem in the future. Bill 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So, the RB-35, RB-5 and RB-75 all have 8" woofers? I guess you learn something new every day! 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
