Have been busy with other stuff but thought I should join this LFR party. Just wondering if there could be some kind of wall bracket to allow mounting above a TV and an optimal distance out from the wall? Also when will the matching surround speakers be ready?

I think a different model designation will be necessary. How about LFR550C?

I want one now even though I don't need it. Oh, and I need a separate sub for it too!

You’ll need a horizontal ep800 to go with it. Just saying.

That's a really great idea. I'll need two stacked horizontal 800s serving as a stand for the LFR180.

I was partially serious. I’m really into symmetry and balance, it’s almost an illness really. Even when looking at pics of amplifier layouts if to power supply block or toriod is centered and the filter caps are centered and equal I get a dopamine hit. Especially if the control knob layout is symmetrical and balanced too, dam it’s good.

That’s why I think a horizontal ep800 makes sense. But 2 is even better. You’d have to isolate them from each other though.

I'm totally serious. No need to isolate based on my experience with stacking various combos of 500 600, 800 and EP125.

Symmetry in the electronic assembly you described can be very important but not for electrical reasons. Electromagnetic, mechanical and thermal for sure.

I believe you. I think it’s awesome. I love that you just try schit and see how it goes.

There’s a couple b stock / refurb ep 800 in there right now….

As for symmetry, for me it’s about aesthetics but I think an added benefit is it also naturally leads to function and stability overall when things have a good balanced layout or design.

Colocated 800's would be epic.
