We expect to be able to deliver the RM30 by Jan 30.


Brian,  Am I correct in assuming that they will look along the same lines as the RM-2 except with an 8" baffle?  Also the same wood choice and finish options?

All finish and other options will be available on the RM 30.  It is 20" deep, remember, but can be placed directly against a back wall if needed.  The FST, Soundcoat and 10" Megawoofer are all standard at the $3500pr price.

so, all except 10" woofer above, is included for $3200/pair, for the non-10" wersion?  what about cost of:
-extra for 6.5" wersion of megawoofers?
-extra for trt & aura caps?
-extra for better wiring?
-extra for full-wrap veneer?
-shipping included?

thanks,

I am very happy with my B&K 7270 amp.  I have tried the experiment of running two 626R's as a center using a bi-wire speaker cable from one channel only.  That means the amp is seeing a 2 ohm load, in theory.  The amp is rated and tested at 8 and 4 ohms, according to the manufacturer, and also is stable to 2 ohms.  I did not seem to have any problem running both speakers from one channel.  I have, however, just to be on the safe side, gone to running each of the two center 626's from a separate channel, spliting the signal coming from my preamp center channel.  I really cannot hear a difference between them on one or two channels.  

I have run both dynamic and hybrid ribbon/dynamic drivers speakers with the amp and it does an excellent job.

I just learned that my particular pair of 626R's are 8 ohms, not 4.  Therefore driving two with one channel of the amp represents only a 4 ohm load, which the amp is rated and tested for.  Sorry about that.  Anyways, the amp is excellent into 4 or 8 ohms.
