cornfedksboy Posted February 23, 2011 Share Posted February 23, 2011 Looks good Blatz! What do you got there? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blatz Posted February 23, 2011 Share Posted February 23, 2011 Just replaced my F-3 synergy's with RF-62's. Center is RC-62. Sides are RS-52s. Rears are RS-41 ii's. Running these with an Onkyo Integra 6.9 receiver. I use the Audyssey auto setup on the receiver. Does anyone have an opinion or preference about using Audyssey over manualling setting the speakers?

cornfedksboy Posted February 23, 2011 Share Posted February 23, 2011 I think Audyssey gets you to a good starting point. From there I would recommend some fine tuning from the sweet spot. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cornfedksboy Posted February 23, 2011 Share Posted February 23, 2011 I like to sit in the sweet spot and adjust speaker distances manually so they are all equal. The mic could register your surround right as being 7 feet away and your surround left as being 11 feet away when in actuallity they are both 8 feet away from where you are sitting. This will cause the surround left to play at a louder volume which could decrease the enjoyability of the movie for someone sitting closer to the surround left speaker. In such a case I would set the speaker distances to an equal distance of 9 feet, splitting the difference, but not the "actual" distance. Nest you have to worry about differences in ohm load. Since you are using all Klipsch speakers, they will all be 8 ohms, so this is negligable for you unless you were to wire additional speakers in parallel. Your rear surrounds (I believe) were not designed to match the RF-62 HT system, so there could be some timbre discrepancies that become audible. You might want to adjust the level up or down. If you are having trouble hearing dialogue, the center channel level may need to be increased. Also, depending on how much surround and rear effects you want (I like alot), you could adjust the levels of the side and rear channels up or down based on what sounds best. Some folks prefer the vast majority of sound to come from the front sound stage and only want the surrounds to augment the effect. I like to feel like the rocket just zipped past my ear, so I adjust the level up slightly. I use Audyssey to get things balanced, then match my speaker distances for L/R pairs. Next I adjust levels for what sounds best to me. Lastly, I move around the room a little bit to make sure I'm not missing anything major. Do you have a sub? If so, make sure your speakers are set to small and your LFE cross-over is set between 60 and 100. Not everyone wants their fronts set to "small" but that usually helps to bring out the detail in the movie sound track. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TheFactor Posted February 23, 2011 Share Posted February 23, 2011 Looks great I joined the Klipsch Club also....never thought anything would make the SV PB13 Ultra look small but the RF-7IIs win. They sound awesome. That looks sweet Browning !! But I got news for you the RF7 II's will make everything look small [] [] Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ohiopatriot Posted February 24, 2011 Share Posted February 24, 2011 just moved to new house. Just added Academy to the Fortes. 2 rotel 981 in mono(360w) driving fortes.

cornfedksboy Posted February 25, 2011 Share Posted February 25, 2011 It's too bad those beautiful wood floors are not the best for a sound proof room. I like that set-up!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
todzilla Posted February 25, 2011 Share Posted February 25, 2011 This is my first post, but I've spent the last month or so reading the boards. After going through the last 75 pages of this thread, let me just say........I love you guys! Seriously though these set ups are awesome. Very inspiring. I am running a Synergy bookshelf system right now but will be upgrading in the next week or so. I will post a pic as soon as I get it set up. I'm really excited to get it done. Thanks again for all the great ideas. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BluBitRates Posted March 3, 2011 Share Posted March 3, 2011 Although i think you are set you pretty much cannot buy a component without a blue light now. You know some Macintosh equipment would fit in nicely. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
