Wife and I have talked about getting the seating by the end of this year, so hopefully not to long I really like the look of the copper woofers. When the lights are down and the screen is on you can't see any of the speakers at all. I do put the grills on from time to time. Particularly when i have friends over that have small kids. The plain black grills help cut down on the "shinny gotta touch it" factor. Click to expand... I hear ya, congrats on the progress so far, it really does look fantastic. Good luck on the future additions. I've put some stuff on hold as well. I agree with the copper as in its a classy touch to the speaker. I went back and forth whether I was going to keep the grilles on and off. My room was set up nothing like yours (not dedicated) and they distracted me a bit. But oh man, I loved the RC64. Great setup.

S shanon211 Audiophyte Sep 25, 2009 2 0 0 Sep 25, 2009 #42 Got the front stage finished this evening. I filled the corners where the mains and sub would sit with play sand wrapped in 6 mill plastic. Regular insulation was used everywhere else double stuffed. I would have rather used sand everywhere but the room is on the second floor and sand to fill the whole stage is a lot of static load. Especially since my double garage doors are below on the same wall with an LVL spanning the gap.

A abjonesiii Audioholic Nov 30, 2008 121 0 18 Jan 13, 2012 #44 Wow... I didn't realize it had been so long. Resurrect a thread from the dead why don't I? Believe I will. I like sharing my progress because it was others sharing theirs that helped guide me. So I guess in some way I feel I'm giving back to the community Well lots and lots has happened since I last checked in. New amps, new pj, new seating, more subs! And now for all intensive purposes I consider myself done... actually the soon to be XMC-1 looks pretty good (restrain yourself man!)... Enough of that, here goes! <br> Reactions: sawzalot, adwilk and Adam

Click to expand... <p> lol, don't under estimate the RSW10-d. That little ten inch rear firing and second front passive radiator can do more than most give them credit. Very musical! They won't growl down to 15hz but they are super tight. If sky was the limit I'd be in the dual ultra13 camp but hey, gotta draw the spending line somewhere right?

timoteo Audioholic General Jan 8, 2009 1,041 0 63 Whittier, CA Jan 16, 2012 #54 I agree that you have to draw the line somewhere....but great subs should be nowhere near that line!!! Ive heard those subs, not all that bad for 10" actually, your right about that. BUT one day down the road, whether its when the subs crap out or some homeless guys knocks on your door asking you if you would take his PB13Ultra off his hands because his back hurts from pushing it in his cart, when you DO experience true power & extension you'll smile & say "aahhhh now i get it!!" Your just fun to mess with bro!! Its because im jealous of your room LOL!!!

Either way I meant no disrespect to the JW denomination. I have nothing but love for fellow believers. I've spend a lot time in various ministries so I am comfortable with religious humor. I'm glad you found it funny if you had been offended I would need to repent. Which there is probably something I should be repenting for right now anyway.
