    Energy RVSSs or C-R100s?

    The center is a RVS and the mains are old Yamaha speakers that will eventually get replaced to something that I don't know yet. The RVSSs would be Side surround and I would look into getting a pair of c-100s for rear surrounds (not c-r100s).

    Energy RVSSs or C-R100s?

    I have a chance to get the RVSSs (a pair) for about $150 Cdn or the C-R100s are $200 each (so $400 Cdn), and I'm looking for a decent budget system would the pair of RVSSs be good for l/r sides and I would get a pair of C-100s for rears in a 7.1 system? Thanks

    Safe and Sound insulation

    Hey thanks for the info about Mineral Wool. I'll have to see if there is a local place where I can buy that. So far all I've found is the Safe and Sound stuff ($32 CDN for 50ish sq/ft).

    Safe and Sound insulation

    I'm not sure what affect this will have on the room itself, has anyone used this product while constructing their HT and how well does it perform for dampening the sound to other levels and does it make a difference on the quality of the sound for your HT? Thanks.

    HT Newb, room setup

    Heh, I don't think my wife will let us put two rows of seats in. I'm having enough problems trying to get new speakers ;-) If anything I can sit closer to the TV. With the overhang won't that "move" the bass around more making the middle of the room not as bad as it could be? In that...

    HT Newb, room setup

    Thanks for the input. The couch will be about 10 ft from the back and front walls so that distance is no problem but like mentioned it's going to be pretty much centered right in the middle of the room. So being that the speakers are going to be 7ish ft high should I have them pointed down...

    HT Newb, room setup

    Would it be beneficial to use bipolar's for the sides and rears or stick with what you mentioned above, bipolars for the sides and direct firing for the rears? Also, the speakers have to be mounted about 7.5 ft off the floor, should the speakers face the listener or level? Thanks for your...

    HT Newb, room setup

    Hey, thanks for taking the time to view my post. I don't have the model numbers of the equipment I'm using, I'll post that later. I have a room that is about 10ft wide by 18ish ft long. I'm trying to do in wall wiring for a 7.1 system. The walls are unfinished so this will be easy to...
