    I didn't end up putting the feet on. Seems they do just fine without. They're on carpet. If it were a hard floor, I would have put them on.

    ....I bet your SVS Ultra sub fills in the bottom quite nicely for yours! :D

    I have not hooked up or open the box. MY wife and i think we might return it. Its unfortunately.. but, im satisifed with RT800 bass for now.

    I need to get a car since i got repod for most stupid reason i ever heard. IT was taken away because i moved to florida.

    So its in storage right now, i hope we will keep it... will find out this week if our fat check (will use it to buy a car) comes in from my former home in PA. it all depend on how much i get. I hopefully to keep it and use it.

    July month was soo bad!! am glad its august and hopefully things will turn out better. I need to buy a car asap (if it has to be $1,000 car, NO CHOICE) before i return work next week. Also i will have to appear court in philly this friday. YEA The shady dealer are suing me and taking me to court for fee's and stuff... this sucks when I SPENT MUCH MONEY FOR NOTHING and has to return what i worked hard for. Last minute flight ticket cost too much for two person (ME AND WIFE), also will have to rent a car, stay in hotel, more more money to spend on and about 2 thousand dollars to get a lawyer.. LIKE I SAID I LOST MONEY and need get 1,400 dollars back from svs for first payment for lawyer by this friday (hes asking 1,000 and will split another 1,000 in two payments , 500 next month and 500 in Oct.) :( UNLESS I GET MY FAT CHECK THIS WEEK, itll be entire different story and i get to keep my sub. I LEARNED A LESSON HERE and will watch out with dealers in the future. this is not fair!! Oh well


    at least i can enjoy my rt800 for now

    CaligulaPolk, for music, it could be argued that a subwoofer is not necessary. For movies, however, the RT800 alone are just NOT enough IMO! Good luck.

    to tell ya truth, it aint bad.. i can feel the bass, i was impressed but of coruse sub will be better. for 75 dollars i can not complain.

    +1 Kex. I did some listening tonight between the RT800's and the RT3000's (with SVS on). There are dramatic differences. However, I think the main difference is not so much the speakers themselves as much as the fact that the 800's are driven by my Sony ES while the 3000's are driven by the Adcom. The drivers and tweeters are identical so I would expect highs and mids to be indistinguishable if driven by the same amp. The detail coming from the Adcom reminds me of why I went with separates. They say familiarity breeds contempt. Well, any contempt from familiarity with my Adcom has been removed. Such clarity, detail, power just can't be produced by the Sony AVR, even though it is a high current amp. The SVS absolutely adds punch that neither the 800's or the 3000's can deliver. Music is certainly fine without it but just that much better with it.
