I know that the height says 42"......Does this include the feet or is this just the cabinet height?
Would someone that has the 70's please give me the overall height with the feet.....going to customize my wall for a snug fit...

I would appreciate it alot.

    Thanks alot..........cant wait to get'em......these will be the final pieces to complete my MAN:biggrin: CAVE:biggrin:

    I'm not sure I need an amp..to me even with the R50's......it sounds fantastic..If I go to reference I can't hardly hear myself talk........can't imagine what it'll sound like with the 70's.....so do I need and amp?

    I have an Onkyo 1008..135 per channel,if that helps any?

    You don't need one, but I know my 70's sound much nicer with the addition of an external amp. You've got an awful nice AVR there that I would think would do the trick without extra power.

    Your amp puts out the same amount of power as my 807. I don't figure the amp is a "necessity" for a 5.1, but anything over that, the amp sure adds a nice creature comfort :smile:

    I'm running an 808 and a 5ch Sony E9000ES amp with the M70's. The 808 only powers my back surrounds and the Sony does the rest. Absolutely love the sound.

    Give it a go with your 1008, it'll sound great. If you feel the itch for more power down the road you're already setup to add an external amp.
