rwerf Posted May 21, 2006 Share Posted May 21, 2006 I would like your advice / comments about my intended 5.1 set-up. Because of limited place besides my projection screen (10" wide), I need to position my L/R speakers beneath the screen. For this reason, I am considering to use 3 RC-7's for L/C/R becasue the RF-7/-5 are simply too high. An alternative may be 2 x RB-75 + RC-7 on lowered stands (I have another pair of RB-75's for rear L/R). Does any of you have some experience, or can imagine how such 3xRC-7 config would sound like? The Klipsch importer for the Netherlands (I live in Holland) claimed when asked that 3xRC-7 should sound superior to 2xRB-75+RC-7. I would appreciate your comments. Regards, Rob.

[] Well, let's assume you meant 10 feet wide screen. Are you going to set the RC-7s so they are sitting upright or lay them flat like the center channel? They may sound different depending on how you have them placed. In an L/C/R application the best sound comes from using 3 identical speakers.

rwerf Posted May 21, 2006 Author Share Posted May 21, 2006 Bill, Thanks for your quick reply, I'd missed the thread you refered to in my earlier searches but it looks that the RC-7 should indeed give a superior result. I should have my set hooked up by mid next month after I received my 4306 (Denon Europe for some reason has a long delivery time), I'll keep you posted.

rwerf Posted May 21, 2006 Author Share Posted May 21, 2006 Thanks, Next time I'll stick to metric measures (screen width is 2.5m)... ;-) I intend to leave them as they are, the whole idea was to get them high as possible, just under the screen.
