Hi Folks,

I'm using a 808i.2 into a 861 and then DSP 8ks and 7kvc. I actually prefer the sound of the 808i.2 through the 861. Don't ask me why, it just sounds better to me. I guess I could wire another cable direct to the 8ks but for now this set up suffices.

The 7kvc seems to cope pretty well with Trifield and it is short enough to not be too imposing.SInce my screen is acoustically transparent I guess the ultimate would be another 8k but the 7kvc is more than enough for now. Personally I would probably not want to use a hc speaker in the middle. Seems too much of a compromise unless you raise it up significantly I guess.
