Hmm, now the question lies, where do i put these, do i put them on Dipole or Bipole...and back to wishing i could hang them up......Sadly for now i'll ive to put them on a cheap end table until i get something better to set them on, they are beautiful and would look AMAZING on the wall...I wish i could hang them up..


Curious where you all have yours and if you have it on Dipole or Bipole.

Im looking for an tips...

Sadly that didnt come in Cherry but the BLACK is going to match my cherry RTi8 and Csi3 beautifully

    Awesome for you! I'm still waiting for mine. Did you order them from Amazon at the $249 steal? I was wishing they came in cherry as well to match my RTi A3's and my CSi A4. How do they sound?

    I have the left connected, it sounds amazing, trying to clean up around where im putting them, since i have to place them on a cheap end table, anyway, i did grab them at the 249 steal with free shipping. I love how it said it would be the 2nd week of march when they would come, but instead it was early :)

    Im glad they came earlier then orginally anticipated....time to go connect the right one now

    Of course there is only 1 way to test them out...Martix :) you know what scene...

    Same way you did when the movie came out........

    But anyway, playing this scene and actually hearing the shells hit the ground, WOW...Yep, they sound AMAZING!!

    And right now it seems like Dipole is the way to go, have to spend more time with Bipole though to know for sure...

    atta boy.. nice snag on those surrounds.. play with both di and bi pole settings.. and see which one sounds best to you.. also be sure to use the auto calibration in your AVR once you get them set up. that will make a huge difference.
