Question 2

is sending them overseas or internationally safe will they broke or something ?

Accepted Answer

Mine were packed very well. Box inside another box. There's always a risk but I was impressed at how well they were packed.

Question 3

are these stand alone speakers or do they require a subwoofer and center speaker to produce sound quality?

Accepted Answer

run a yamaha tsr7850 reciever - 75 watts per channel into 4 each rp8000f hooked up with 4 each rp 600m bookshelf speakers, wired one 8000f to one rp600m in parallel, using the bi-wire feature , along with a rp 504 c center and a spl 150 klipsch sub .

i use the left and right front sur channels and the left and right front speaker channels and sub , mostly in stereo music mode.
my room is about 12x12, sound treated and used with a lg65" tv for home theater movies.
play for several hours at a time each day, everyday since february 2021. no problem with overheating, as i have a lasko standing fan cooling my amp all the time it is powered on.
works great, cheaper to but a $25.00 fan than another amp/reciever.
you MUST run it with the fan on at med speed and your amp stays cool all the time.

i run it at med to high volume for most of the time its on.
hope it helps out.

Question 4

Why are there two sets of terminals On the back of the speakers?

Accepted Answer

This is so you can "bi-wire" the terminals for better performance. You do not have to do this necessarily. There is a plate on each side (comes connected already) that connects the two positive and two negative terminals respectively. If you are not "bi-wiring" you just leave the plates on and connect one set of positive and negative like any other speaker. Hope this helps!
