thdrought Posted April 18, 2001 Share Posted April 18, 2001 I am getting ready to setup a 7.1 system, but have a dilemna with my rear surrounds. To begin with, my couch is on the rear wall. I thought of pulling it away from the wall a few feet, but then it starts getting to close to the TV. The distance currently between the couch and the TV is 14 feet. I was hoping to use RS-3's for the rear. Cannot use in-wall, I rent. Anyone have any suggestions. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest BobG Posted April 21, 2001 Share Posted April 21, 2001 Just returned from your beautiful city. Like the weather, don't like the traffic on the roads. Guess I won't buy that waterfront home afterall. Rear center speakers should not be wide dispersion so the RS-3's are not my suggestion. RC-3's might work or RB-5's. Forthcoming RB-3 probably best choice. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thdrought Posted April 23, 2001 Author Share Posted April 23, 2001 San Diego is great for the weather, thats why everyone seems to move here, but thats about it. Kick myself everyday for moving from the East Coast. Real estate is outragously expensive. To further the previous question then, if I got the RB-3's (when they are released), would it be advantagous to mount those on the side walls, inches behind the listeners ears, mount the surrounds mid-room (which is about 3-4 feet in front of the listener) and the mains at the front of the room. Would I gain anything from this setup, as compared to a 5.1 setup? Also, do you know when the RB-3's are due out? Thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
