yup, I have it hooked up. So far I like it, has a great look to it. My inital impressions are deeper, richer sound and a much better soundstage then what the Integra could produce. I will get some pictures posted up later today and you will also get to see my DIY Salamander Synergy Clone.

Very nice man, just one thought, you should pull your RX6's away from the wall some more or use the included port bungs, mine are about a foot and a half from the wall, yours look closer, but awesome looking dude, wish I grabbed the walnut RX's and not the black

Thanks man. I was thinking they should be away from the wall some, but with little kids (3 y/o 7 11 mo) I didn't want them to play around the speakers and go behind them and don't want them to push the port bungs into the speakers. I love the walnut color, they were a special order. After I ordered the RX6's I decided I should just get the 8's, but since they were a special order, the store wouldn't work with me, but the 6's sound good, esp with my SVS SB-12 NSD

I have heard that many prefer the RX6 over the 8 for music, and when I bought mine they didn't have walnut in stock so I jumped on the black ones...oh well lol
