Where do I ship em' to ?

In all seriousness, excellent job! :T Yours were the pair that made me think I should build a pair for on wall mounting for my surrounds. I was thinking this style of form factor.


Maybe not the wood styling, but the form.

I'm at work....I'll check the number and post it later.Sherwin-williams silouette.....I think.

They rock.Perfect fit all around...size,sound and cost.

Well, Ive had these mounted for a little more than a year and these are really perfect surround speakers.They have more than enough headroom for HT and sound sweet for DVD concerts (Peter Gariel "Growing Up" as one example).

Not that I have noticed any problems, but if Mark K. could rework the BSC for a wall mount They should be in the Mission Accomplished section for sure.

Very happy with these babies.This rounds out my HT Guide 7.1 system.

Haha, I was thinking the same idea for my surrounds.

But yeah, the BSC thing is an issue, if they were off the wall, you would have to climb over a couch to get to the movie racks!

I can recognize that those are REALLY nice drivers in there, and some beautiful wood grain, but I just can't look at that, and not think of classroom PA speakers from my childhood.

So, 6 years after the last post.... I am in a new location, my old room has since been dismantled. I needed to set up a quick and easy system from pieces of my old HT.

I set up my 225/28a twoways on top of my rebuilt AUX subs. The twoways were intended for surround duty and the smaller cabinet i used i'm sure cut off the bass around 60hz. I used one Behringer 500a amp and an Airport Express to stream my itunes and Pandora.....

I can not believe how good this little stereo system sounds. I just XO the subs where the mains dropped off using my OmniMic system and my laptop. I purchased some rebuilt 12" M&K sub drivers for my trusty subs that were damaged before.

If anyone is looking for a real nice clean sound, these twoways are just plain sweet. The metal dome tweeter doesnt sound at all like a ringy, tizzy, metal dome. I really liked these as surrounds, and am now enjoying them so much more with two channel audio.......

Now that's value, when you can recycle and re-purpose and be very happy with the results! :T

Not surprised to hear that, though, especially as the RS28a does lack most of the typical metal dome vices- it's a nice part for music, and why I used it in several systems on a budget!

....... and we're talking Pandora streamed over WiFi as a source, and it still sounds pretty good. I'd like to hear some of my SACD's or DVDA's...... or better yet some good old fashion analog vinyl..
