Hi Tom
I wanted to ask you if you use the rear firing tweeter on your 7's

thanks Russ
Russ, who was the dealer? Does he live close enough to deliver and set it up for you?
No. I have a relatively small room and acoustic center of the 7 is about 32" from back wall which while it has quite a bit of irregular surface diffusion is still pretty reflective.
I am in the camp that believes the rear firing tweeter could / should be deleted. Intent is in very absorptive rooms a bit of 901 bounce might be needed. ( words from the manual )...i never ran them on the 5a either.
In the right room and situation they must help. richard is a pretty frugal designer and he includes them so he must feel that overall they add value to owners.
Hope this helps
Jim
