jamesV Posted March 23, 2008 Share Posted March 23, 2008 nicolasileso, Is that first picture taken from the viewing distance? Just asking because my sitting area is about 10 feet from my TV and I'm looking for a new one, I currently have a CRT 32" Sony. Thanks, James Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jamesV Posted March 27, 2008 Share Posted March 27, 2008 Pythagore, Nice looking setup you have.... Since you have the RF-7 and RF-83. Which, in your opinion, is better for music and movies? How does the RF-7 sound for movies with the RC-64? James Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SCOOTERDOG Posted March 27, 2008 Share Posted March 27, 2008 Quote "My room is 21 x 23 x 8 and the Jubilee's are on the 21' wall. TheTV you saw in the pic is a Hitachi 70" but it is very old. There is anaudio/video store in town, I'll have to go by and see what they haveas far as new projectors. I am certain that one of those new unitswould look much better than the TV I have now. Thanks again, Kevin Harmon" Building your own HT takes patients and lots of planning. The best recommendation I can give you is to download SketchUp and design everything on your computer first. You will be able to learn this program in 30 min and it will make life so much easier when it comes to building your HT. I spend about 6 weeks designing mine and 3 years of construction. Keep in mind I had a pretty finished HT in 7 months the rest of the time were lots of little things, new furniture , rear risers and various component upgrades,. But in order to start at square one put the mouse on the pad ad draw it first,. What I designed on my PC using sketchup came out in real life almost identical, it was worth its weight in gold. Besides its a free software program. I am attaching my sketchup drawing and a couple of pics of my HT so you can see how mach it turned out like the design. First pic is the sketchup drawing.

SCOOTERDOG Posted March 27, 2008 Share Posted March 27, 2008 Rear View.. As you can see the actual layout is very close to the design. I did make some minor adjustments but that was done with sketchup as well. Sketchup lets you get dims correct and radius correct etc. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kharmondds Posted March 28, 2008 Share Posted March 28, 2008 Scooterdog, thanks for the information. I love the way your theater turned out. Very impressive set up. You did an excellent job of designing and building that room. Many thanks, Kevin Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nezff Posted March 29, 2008 Share Posted March 29, 2008 Ok finally got it done, here it is. Cost me a total of $370 to build and paint. more storage than a $1500 one. lol Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pythagore Posted March 29, 2008 Share Posted March 29, 2008 James, Thank you. I got the RF-83 only for about a month now. I haven't done any critical listening with them yet. But, so far I must say, that I'm very impressed with them. On the other end I owned the RF-7 for about 3 years. For music, I almost want to believe that the RF-83 are slightly more musical that the RF-7. This little diference is noticeable at very high volume.

jamesV Posted March 30, 2008 Share Posted March 30, 2008 This little diference is noticeable at very high volume. That is funny, is there any other type of volume.. [] I think that is what I have seen in post here about the difference also. At any rate enjoy the setup. James Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jamesV Posted March 30, 2008 Share Posted March 30, 2008 Nezff, nice looking entertainment center you have there, and really great for the price. Only one thing, you might want to toe in your speakers toward your listening position. Very nice... [H] James Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nezff Posted March 30, 2008 Share Posted March 30, 2008 what degree is the toe in? thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jamesV Posted March 30, 2008 Share Posted March 30, 2008 what degree is the toe in? thanks I believe, it's to the point where if you draw a line that line should cross right behind the listening position. It should make the sound seem like it is coming out of the TV, rather then each side. James Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
