bmorgan Posted February 21, 2008 Share Posted February 21, 2008 Hello Everyone, I have scoured the postings and haven't found a clear direction on where I need to take my system. I am in the process of moving to a 7.1 configuration and and will have a pair of RF-5 as my mains, one RC-7 as my center and a pair of RS-7 for side surrounds. While my intent would be to try to get a pair of RB-75 for my rear surrounds I am not so certain that this is going to happen within a reasonable timeline nor amount of money. With that said, what speaker pair would you recommend for rear surrounds with a 7.1 setup if I do not use a pair of RB-75? Thanks for the input and insight!

TNRabbit Posted February 21, 2008 Share Posted February 21, 2008 Rear surrounds in that configuration wouldn't have a lot of info going to them. I'm using KG 1.1 bookshelf speakers for my rear surrounds with no issues. IMHO RB-75s would be overkill. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bmorgan Posted February 21, 2008 Author Share Posted February 21, 2008 Ok, makes sense based on what I am reading. So, based on the response from TNRabbit, what does everyone think about using my existing pair of RS-3 for my rear surrounds for 7.1? Would this be "enough" to keep up with the rest of the setup I am building? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Catharsis147 Posted February 22, 2008 Share Posted February 22, 2008 That will certainly work, though I think you should look for a pair of Rs-7s for the future, you never know when 7.1 will be utilized more in the Blu Ray format. As of right now, your RS-3s should be fine. Not a perfect match, but as already stated, that is not quite necessary (UNLES you listen to music often in matrixed 7.1 sound) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
