How's 9.4? Is it a good speaker? For subwoofer setting in your AVR, do u still set your front speakers to small?

its ok for me, the reason i bought it is bcoz of its kevlar driver. together with 9.1 as the surr and sw150 as the sub. my setting is set as 'small', unless u r using 9.6. check the spkr manual that comes together with the box.

set mine as small too

Plan to buy 9.6 once my new house is ready. Was offered 2300.00 at Desa. Is that price good?

What speakers are good to pair with RX-V463? Thanks

Got a questions for you experts. Is it OK to NOT place the 2 front speakers at a same distance from the listening location?

My TV cabinet has a pillar on one side and so the left speaker has to be closer to the listening location than the right speaker.
Will the auto setup with YPAO be smart enough to adjust for this?

Also, my center speakers is very close the the floor (sitting on 5 cms legs). Is this OK?

Thanks....

BTW, I am using a RX-V863 with NS-555, NS-444, NS-333 and NS-SW315.

Same here! planning to get a 9.6 then use my 9.4 as SL/SR speakers.. but then got advised that its better to just go straight to B&Ws for my next upgrade.. so.. i am a bit lost now.. cuz actually my room isnt big enough to get full use of the big-boys.. im just thinking for future cuz i will be getting a bigger room.. about the price, i was offered roughly the same as u here oso for them.. so.. no comment if its cheap o not.

As long as u calibrate it properly, then it 'should' be alright.. do ypao first for initial.. then manual it.. hmm i got really confuse with ypao+EQ... wtf natural/flat.. soo confusing for me.. got a friend to do it.. now the surround is not bad.. as for ure center.. if not mistaken in the avr manual it teach how to raise the center speaker sound upwards.. just try that.. cant remember on which page. but im sure its there

Agreed. Calibrated properly, and the center height thing, it's in the manual to raise it. Read the manual.

Well, the manual says that to "lift" the center speaker virtually, you need another set of "Presence" Speakers, which is placed in front, left-right, on top of your TV. I don't have enuf speakers la.... so maybe I just try adjusting the center so that it points upwards a bit.....

Tilt the center speakers upward to ain at your listening position. This way, the dialogue will sound better. Mine is tilted even it is on speaker stand.

what about tilting the center speakers down? if placed above your screen. I might end up that way or else find another rack ..

You can get a center speaker stand and place it at the bottom of the screen. How's that?

i've got a 3 row x 3 collum cabinet. the middle colloum couldn't fit the center. Anyway I'm still cheap *using 29" TV.

Anyway my stuffs are still not here waiting for my amp and will get my BR's early Sept.

I need a coffee table in between my sofa and the tv. so options to put my center on a diffrent stand might be bad as will be blocked by the table.

Will it be wrong to put the center not in the middle of my screen? *might sound stupid.

Best for the moment it to have it sit above my TV.

Else ... buy another rack lo .. sigh!

Then, don't install the center too high up. Tilt it downward.

will try when my stuffs are here ..
but it'll not reach perfection compared to chest level position right?
will try it out. thanks guys ....

by the way any 1800 sellers here? I just missed out a great deal.

Not going to buy SR875? Missed out great deal? How much?

nope I'm going to stick to yammy.

now waiting for my 663 to reach, or maybe another 1800 seller.

to drive 7.1 channel speakers...the V663 will definitely under power....I felt it even with my V861 (105W/ch)....5.1 still ok, but when it goes to 7.1 or when I matrix to 7.1....the quality of the sound go down hill....

try to get a more powerful AVR if you could....am aiming for a min 130W AVR now....

sigh....when can I get enough money to use

Then, intend to sell your V861 ?

how much you wanna offer?
it's only 1 year old and in perfect working condition with no scratches and non-smoking environment
