    Just came back from the big fourth of July parade. I live in the county seat of DuPage County, perenially in the top twenty richest counties in America.....what a show!
    Watching all the marching bands reminded me of what I strive for in my audio system-the live you are there sound. The drums especially were really something.
    Bless America! Happy Fourth!

    As to the tweaks......any thoughts on my side firing subs that are built into my front towers!?

    I have the same thing. Room EQ or add more. :-)

    Default Say On, O' Swami of Sound!

    Wow. The big enchilada with all the chiclets!
    And what, pray tell, O' Swami of the Site, side firing towers are you listening to these days?
    Frankly, the side firing option just seemed optimal for me- I was hurting for space on my HT main wall, and these saved me that two feet of space that a couple of subs take up. Plus, it makes sense to have two subs equidistant, rather than one sub off center somewhere.

    I lied... I HAD the same thing (RBH Sound 1266-LSEs) and not have front-firing subs that are locked to the mains (RBH Sound CinemaSITE).
