Corvzr1 Posted February 13, 2005 Share Posted February 13, 2005 Hey all, I currently have a 5.1 setup. Right now for mains I have RB35's. My center is a Synergy c2. My rears are my old Infinity Interlude IL20's. My receiver supports a 6.1 setup. Now on to the question. What should I use for my back channel? Would another center channel work or should I use a kilipsh RS speaker. Also, I will eventually be moving my rb35's to the surrounds and purchasing a RF7 for the mains. What do you all think? One more thing I currently have an Infinity 10" sub, I was thinking of going with a Klipsch sub but i've heard of reliability issues. Do any of you think a Velodyne would be better?

gcoker Posted February 14, 2005 Share Posted February 14, 2005 Since you have future upgrade plans I would place your exisitng center speaker in the back when you buy your new one. I would not waste any money on buying a RS now. Dump all you can into the center and mains. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Corvzr1 Posted February 14, 2005 Author Share Posted February 14, 2005 Thanks for replying. I was thinking of geting the rc7 for the center and throwing the sc2 to the back. It is nice to see someone reply. There are a lot of people on this board not willing to help a semi newbie Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's nothing agaist you or your status. I sometimes post a question and it goes unanswered for a time. So don't get discouraged and keep posting. When you do get the RC-7 you will want to get the RF-7 mains very quickly. Both are awsome speakers. In terms of Klipsch subs, I would not hesitate to purchase one. The RSW series are very good and comes with a think a 5 year warranty. I have owned two Klipsch subs, (SW-8II and the RW-12) and have never had any problems. I have seen a few posts about the RSW-15 subs but keep in mind that many here on the forum have the RSW's and have not had problems. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Btw, I would go with a center channel for the rear center as well, but you can also use a bookshelf speaker. In your future setup, RB-35s across the back would be a good option.

waddisme Posted February 14, 2005 Share Posted February 14, 2005 Hey Man - I have both the RSW-15 and the KSW-15. Some people have had problems with the RSW but fortunately I haven't. It is an awesome sub, but I would wait until the fronts are acquired. I only have the RF-5's, but wish I had the RF-7's now. Being patient. I wouldn't be afraid of the Klipsh sub, just be aware of the dealer you buy from. Good Luck! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DrWho Posted February 14, 2005 Share Posted February 14, 2005 What's the budget on the sub? I wouldn't worry about reliability being an issue. I've only read about 2 problems on this forum and I believe they were both with Ultimate Electronics which is pleading bankruptcy right now...just think of how many subs klipsch has already sold. 2/4000 is a very low failure rate (.05%) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
