    Stacked only for the picture. Going to hook up the 70s to speaker b and do some a/b comparison
    If I keep buying speakers I'll never be able to upgrade the reciever. Maybe able to run across a 2 channel amp. Would like to here the rt16 and the 55s on a good amp, I bet that would bring them to life.
    Sub is in the left hand corner, Its a svs 20-39 pc+. Man I love that thing, wish I had one for each corner.

    Nice movie shot. The part at the very beginning (before the menu comes up) where he rips across the screen with the sword is one of the coolest things I've ever heard...

    The 16s have more bass. The highs are different to. Different tweeter. When I first hooked up the 70s had to listen real close to see if the tweeter was working. The treble on the 16s was set at -2, turned it up to +2 for the 70s. After listening to them for awhile they sound good, but not like the 16s.

    Might slide them in beside the 16s for movies and leave the 16 for 2-channel duty. Have not made up my mind yet. Have to many speaker and not enough amps. Only have a yamaha rec. right now. Looking to make a 2 channel set up but need more funds.
