Yeah, but I recall people were saying that even though Infinity specify 8ohm they are really 4ohm or something like that...


I'll change the impedance and re-run Audyssey.


Thanks guys!

"No, Mr. Bond. I expect you to die!"

While indeed a classic line from Mr Auric Goldfinger, it is the play on names of the female leads by Mr Bond I believe are some of the best movie lines ever. Goldfinger being a great example....when Bond meets ***** Galore .... "I must be dreaming".

Theres some great info there. Thanks.

Yeah, I just finished reading the whole article, going to change the receiver to 6ohm instead of 4ohm and re-calibrate Audyssey.


Speaker Impedance

`4ohms:

Select if the impedance of any speaker is 4 ohms or

more but less than 6.

`6ohms:

Select if the impedances of all speakers are between 6

and 16 ohms


What mislead me was the 'of any' and 'of all' above.

Is there no 8 ohm setting?

My Onkyo is same as shpitz, just 4 or 6.

Yeah, manual says if it's over 4 but under 6 choose 4, otherwise choose 6.

The discontinued subwoofer that just keeps on giving.

Yeah, gives me the urge to add two more subs and completely annihilate the floors of the house above the basement

It's such a great deal that it's hard not wanting to pickup more, just because they're so good and sooooo cheap.



In our case, the rub, we're (that's me, not the wife) wanting to upgrade into either the Rythmik or PSA subwoofer family but with discontinued deals like what Newegg is constantly cranking out, it's hard not to notice.

There you go Gus!.. been seeing you post a lot about wanting another sub for the rite price due to car issue's and all. I've even seen you over in the DIY section. Could this be your answer, it sure would simplify things and fit into your budget.

I already got two RW-12D. However, if we get out house at the end of the year, I want more BASS. I will be upgrading my speakers as well slowly.

I'm thinking of going with dual DIY 18"s instead.

Back to $1000, any takers?

This is actually good, now I can show this updated price to my wife and remind her that, " that big dookie, ugly, black box in the corner of the family room, which stands out like a sore thumb" is a $1000 piece of fine audio equipment, which she and the kids now enjoy after she complained the first week and that I'm such a great shopper who only spent $279 for it!
