prodj101 Posted February 10, 2003 Share Posted February 10, 2003 well, with this new TV we got, it's wide enough to suppor the RC-7, so I'm thinking, YES! something to go with the RF-5's! but than I realize that it would be way to deep. The SC-1 hangs off it a good bit, so how the heck would I ever fit on an RC-7? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
skonopa Posted February 10, 2003 Share Posted February 10, 2003 I don't know what your setup looks like, but you could try mounting a shelf above the TV to hold the RC-7. A 12 x 36 inch shelf is big enough, but unfortunatly, that does not leave much room to allow the rear-ported speaker to breath. That is how I have my rear center mounted.

prodj101 Posted February 10, 2003 Author Share Posted February 10, 2003 well, assume that no major modifications can be made due to the mom restriction (such as bolting things into the wall and making shelves off of it) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chuckears Posted February 10, 2003 Share Posted February 10, 2003 That's what I love about my Mitsubishi widescreen... plenty of room for the KLF-C7, and some of the Mrs.' knick-knacks, to boot. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kenratboy Posted February 10, 2003 Share Posted February 10, 2003 Build a shelf that sits on the TV, like a board with legs that sit on the back of the TV. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Audible Nectar Posted February 11, 2003 Share Posted February 11, 2003 "Build a shelf that sits on the TV, like a board with legs that sit on the back of the TV." You can use 2 x 12 boards to make a simple stand with three pieces - two for the sides, one across the top. Very easy, and will stand up on it's own (think of this simple stand as an upside down U over your TV). I did this for my Academy center channel - it cost less than ten bucks - wood, stain, and nails included. You will be able to move this forward and back as well, to allow sufficient room behind the speaker for the port. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
erikjohn Posted February 11, 2003 Share Posted February 11, 2003 Prodj, Possibly you need to think of how you could use a couterweight in the front to keep it from tipping back. Possibly a little low profile box that it will sit on and you can load the front with some weight. EJ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

oogins Posted February 11, 2003 Share Posted February 11, 2003 Would a center speaker stand work? I use one. I know it doesn't place the tweeter at the same height as your mains, but if you buy one that is angled up it shouldn't matter too much.
