Fixing to buy a new amp

[gadgtfreek]

LOL. I hope not...

Good choice. Glad I didn't go with the black wharfedales and went with the Rosewood.

Not being able to see them I had a little feear. We used to have a lot of "cherry" and "walnut" stuff, and I got burnt out. These look classy.

Still surprised how much bigger it is than the RF82II

Got the Outlaw Model 7500 in, what a freaking monster.

Well..... Hooked up yet?

S~

 

[gadgtfreek]

Nope, my run of poor luck continued.

I got the amp from a guy who took down his HT. Amp came with wrong power cord, looks like from his AVR lol. I sold the emotiva today, so I am running off the 4520ci LOL. Second cherry RF7ii is delayed because of weather, so it might not be here until Wed or Thu now...

Anyways, I did some research and found a cord, so I will be going Tuesday. Seller is out of town and will look for other when he gets back, plus reimburse the $20 for this one.

On another note, I'm really looking hard at the new Marantz AV7702 preamp...

 

[gadgtfreek]

Couldn't resist it, kinda the last piece of the audio puzzle for now.


Marantz - 11.2-Ch. 4K Ultra HD and 3D Pass-Through A/V Preamplifier - Black

• Model: AV7702

Man, found a guy who may want to work out a trade and he has an RC-7 center. It was the model years before the reference II line (2001-06), but it should pair fine with the RF-7ii towers. Has the larger 1.75" tweeter and dual 8" woofers. Now thats center!!!

I dont know how many "you have Klipsch speakers you do not need a separate amp" arguments I have to have with people at AVS, especially the ones that have actually never owned an amp.

Here is one shot of the used RC7 I am trying to get.

 

[teachsac]

The RC7 is a beast. I have an RC6, and it's a beast.

[gadgtfreek]

Sweet. I will going thru with the trade end of this week/early next week. It solves my issue by not being too wide, but still being a powerful center.

Got this today:

Like, but do you really want to put it in the listening room. Looks like a darned good audio reflector.

 

[gadgtfreek]

I was kinda thinking the wall behind the speakers, above them. Kinda where the plasma is.

 

[gadgtfreek]

So what do you think about this for a mounting spot? Gonna secure it instead of hang, all it's gonna do is rattle if I dont.

 

[gadgtfreek]

Well, looks like the second cherry RF7ii is on town, and the amp cord will be here today. Marantz preamp should be here Wed or Thu, so we are close to getting this baby done.

 

[gadgtfreek]

Just found out the RC7 is black, and has some scratches, I so may punt on that idea. I will probably sell the 4520ci this weekend and use that money towards an RC64ii B-stock center ($800 or so). I will have to make a new shelf for the preamp, but I need a center with the larger horn, and this may be my option.

Finally!
