My new RBH 8300/PX arrived!!

Yea. It’ll be better with the rug. There is a big sofa where we sit in front of the speakers. Also, the slatted wall has tamed down the room a fair amount.

I would also think a rug will help. My first throught when I saw the pictures was that there were a lot of hard surfaces and the room would be rather lively. Nice to hear that the slat wall has helped.

Congrats on the speakers. Hopefully they live up to all your expectations of an end game purchase. Or at least I assume they are, given the price point on these!

Well, even Gene uses some Kimber Kables…

I use Belden on 100' to 250' on drums, and I cut to length and terminate.

Does the game really ever end??

I have the SVTRS upstairs in the theater room. Those will be the last to go. I just don’t know of or heard any other speaker that can come close to the dynamics and pure effortless sound those speakers produce.

The family room has a big problem. It has a large, 3 panel glass sliding door. We plan on replacing the door next year but want to keep it open without any treatments as it goes out to the pool area. The room will get more acoustic treatments but they have to look modern. The family room faces the kitchen which got a modern facelift a couple of years ago so everything has to have a cohesive look.

I use Belden from BlueJeans cables everywhere. Speakers, XLR, RCA, etc. The SVTRS have Kimber Kable.
