Over all set up after VTI 29" stands were added.

Removed top plate from the stand.

I put a little sand in the bottom of the panty hose to weigh it down a bit so it will fall to the bottom of the tube.

I had to prop up my funnel against the wall while I poured the sand into the funnel.

After the tube was filled I tied off the top of the panty hose and stuffed it into the tube, re-attached the top plate and cleaned the stands of any sand resedue.

Awesome gear. WOW!!! I love it, and very smart for the use of sand in your stands. Well done!!!

Clinton3779  » Apr 08, 2013 07:58 PM

Stunning gear!!! Wow

Byrdman03  » Feb 02, 2012 12:57 AM

Nice setup man! I never thought about using sand.

adept777  » Jan 31, 2012 06:04 PM

I love your RC series and HSU!!! Super!

bz1080p  » Jan 11, 2012 07:30 AM

What a nice clean set up! You have a great selection of gear (really like the Integra) I enjoyed looking at your "dampening" project on the speaker stands, Nice :-)

kayvan79  » Dec 01, 2011 03:13 AM

Thanks for the comment on my gallery Miker. Actually i looked at your gallery a while back when i was looking for stands for my RC10's. Although i went with another brand your gallery was very helpful for me. As for your gallery i love your equipment also. I have RC10's as mains in my lower level. I run them w/o a sub and i'm still surprised at how much bass comes out of those small bookshelves when you run them full range. The LCR is one of the best centers i've ever heard. Curious about your surrounds. Another set of RC10's would rock. If you want a smaller footprint the RC or V minis would really work well. Looking forward to seeing your next upgrade.

adept777  » Nov 04, 2011 05:22 PM

Neat set up.. I like a lot!

Bluvette  » Oct 31, 2011 09:11 PM

Awesome setup. Love the speakers and gear.

znil78  » Jul 31, 2011 03:20 PM

love the enrgies! tfs

lswope00  » Jul 30, 2011 02:21 PM

thanks and yes it sounds fantastic!

lswope00  » Jul 27, 2011 11:36 AM

very nice! nothing like integra i have the 50.2

VictorQ  » Jul 27, 2011 11:04 AM

Great gear and setup!

mangosta  » Jul 27, 2011 06:44 AM

Awesome work, i love your setup

prerich  » Jul 26, 2011 07:41 PM

How are the rc-10's fairing with the rc-lcr (that center is in another class). It would be cool if you could get two more LCR's and orient your speakers vertically. Then you could move the 10's to the rear. Excellent system! Very nice Integra!

BigAl87  » Jul 22, 2011 09:55 PM

Mike I would like to see some pics of the new 40.3

Garth Hyson  » Feb 28, 2011 07:55 AM

sweet, great job with the stands!

Bluray_ne1  » Feb 25, 2011 03:19 PM

Wow! Nicely done Miker. The addition of the RC-LCR center and the VTI stands makes for a beautiful setup. :-)

Miker107  » Feb 11, 2011 02:25 PM

Thanks guys. Yea, the phone books work nicely until my stands come in. LOL

K-Fed2  » Feb 11, 2011 02:07 PM

I can't think of a better way to recycle old phone books that RC-LCR looks awesome Mike! great setup now even better!

PPthenaughtyboy  » Feb 10, 2011 01:42 PM

Nice setup m8!

Mpeake  » Feb 10, 2011 12:36 PM

Looking good! Nice Energy setup, I love my RC-10s and i am sure you do too. That LCR is SWEET! I wish I had room for it, but i am looking for a RC-Mini CC when I get the funds. 10/10

MaCruz  » Feb 10, 2011 11:16 AM

Man! Gotta love that RC-LCR Mike!

nezff  » Jan 31, 2011 08:54 AM

very nice and clean setup 10

Miker107  » Jan 27, 2011 08:08 AM

Thanks K-fed2, but my modest little RC-10's would be blown away by your RC-30's I'm sure..

K-Fed2  » Jan 26, 2011 09:20 PM

great setup Mike. those rc-10's look awesome

Miker107  » Jan 26, 2011 08:50 AM

Thanks naturephoto1, and might I say your set up is incredible and looks like it costs millions to put together. LOL

Miker107  » Jan 26, 2011 08:42 AM

Thanks Tang7969, its a Toshiba Regza 47". The exact model number is written in my signature below my posts. BTY, love your set up as well.

naturephoto1  » Jan 26, 2011 07:55 AM

Nice looking Home Theater and great looking kids. Enjoy.

tang7969  » Jan 26, 2011 07:53 AM

Nice set up Mike!! What tv do you have?

Miker107  » Aug 02, 2010 11:35 AM

Thanks jjmbxkb, I've been admiring you HT room and set up since I came to this site. Absolutely stunning.

jjmbxkb  » Jul 30, 2010 06:21 PM

Nice RC-10's.

hrundi  » Jul 29, 2010 06:38 AM

Very nice set up. Well done!

kareface  » Jul 28, 2010 03:15 PM

Cool, make sure to post when you add the second sub.

kareface  » Jul 26, 2010 11:30 PM

Sweet kids. I see you have your monitors sitting on a couple servos. What frequency are you crossing them over and do you also have a sub for the overall system? I like the setup you have here. Your center might be better off a little higher tho. As it stands you'll likely see a dip in the high end from the carpeting being so close.

Miker107  » Jul 26, 2010 08:07 PM

Thanks 4x12, I was admiring your set up as well.

4x12  » Jul 25, 2010 01:13 AM

nice & clean setup... like the Energy's, great speakers. I had mine almost 8-9 years.

Morrissey  » Jul 05, 2010 11:53 AM

I was going to say the same thing...you look a little young to be a grandfather.

Miker107  » Jul 02, 2010 10:14 AM

LOL, yea I know. The deal is my wife is 10 years older than I, and she has 2 daughters from a previous marriage. These are her oldest daughters children. In fact, the 2 u see here are her youngest. She also has a 13 year old. Can you believe it? I'm 44 with 3 grandchildren..LOL I get that a lot.

Beta Man  » Jul 02, 2010 08:59 AM

you don't look old enough to have grand-kids!

B.Hulk  » Jul 02, 2010 02:05 AM

Nice gear!!!

DangeRuss  » Jul 01, 2010 10:17 AM

You've got the makings of a nice theater system Have you come to any conclusions concerning retro-fitting the other speakers?

Miker107  » Jul 01, 2010 08:54 AM

Thank you guys for the kind comments. My upgrades will be slow, but all you guys give great advice. Sure glad I found this forum.

Johnny Blaze  » Jun 24, 2010 10:05 PM

Very Nice Setup!!

DAK4  » Jun 24, 2010 05:56 PM

Kabbam!

croseiv  » Jun 18, 2010 02:32 PM

Nice set-up! One suggestion I have would be to move that center up off of the floor so that the tweeter is closer to the others. It would really help your sound balance.

BigAl87  » Jun 17, 2010 11:43 PM

Looking great your off to a really good start with your setup Miker, you get a 10 for it's simplicity

snsguy  » Jun 17, 2010 03:33 PM
