mrw Posted April 15, 2001 Share Posted April 15, 2001 This is actually two seperate questions. 1) 1st house, I've got rf3s & rc3 for front channels and rc3s for side surrounds, if I add the SS1s for the center rear surroung (6.1) will I notice a sound difference? I understand not much sound is in the rear surround channel(s) 2) 2nd house, I've got rf3s & rc3 front channels and and thinking of adding SS1s for side surround and SS.5s for rear center surrounds. This seem ok since all rears are timbre matched? If properly calibrated am I going to hear a sound difference from the rfs? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jefnel1 Posted April 30, 2001 Share Posted April 30, 2001 I have RF-3 & RC-3 in the front, and SS-1 for surround. They sound great with my setup, so I don't see why they wouldn't sound good as rear surrounds in a 6.1 setup. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dougdrake Posted April 30, 2001 Share Posted April 30, 2001 I've read a few posts on this board that suggest using direct radiating speakers for the rear center speakers in 6.1/7.1, rather than WDST (like the SS-1, SS-.5, RS-3). Anyone have any input on that? Doug Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
boa12 Posted April 30, 2001 Share Posted April 30, 2001 yea that's what i'll be doing: i'll have 2 directs for rear surrounds & 2 wdst for side surrounds (as well as cornwalls for direct B surrounds - music only) suppose u would want a wdst for just 1 rear center surround, but for 2 i'd use directs as usually not a lot of space to fill on the shorter back wall). again as usual guess it depends on room size, prefs,... ------------------ Klipsch KLF-30 (front), KLF-C7, Cornwall I (rear) Velodyne HGS-18 sub woofer Monsterbass 400 sub interconnect & Monster S-12 cable Sony STR-DE935 a/v receiver Sony DVP-C650D cd/dvd player Sony Trinitron 27" stereo tv Toshiba hi-fi stereo vcr Technics dual cassette deck Technics direct drive turntable Scientific Atlanta Explorer 2000 digital cable box 2nd room: Klipsch RF-3 (front), RC-3, cheap little Technics (rear) Kenwood KR-9600 AM/FM stereo receiver (vintage '75) Teac PD-D1200 5-disk cd player Sega Genesis game player Sub: None yet rock on!
