Still waiting (hoping really) for the RC263 center channel to comeback into stock and go on sale. I saw a hit on Infinity and thought this might be it. Doh!

I have the Reference 263's and am really happy with them. Infinity makes quality stuff.

I have the RC263 and R253 towers. always tempted to upgrade to R263s, but with a Monolith sub for the low stuff, I doubt I'd really notice the difference.

RC263 is sweet though. I somehow scored mine of FB marketplace.

I've been looking and looking. Sadly I haven't come across any locally. Of course I'll have to buy a new console/stand to fit that monster should I finally get one. I hear the RC263 is one large center.

I knew it was big...and I was still astounded when I first set it down in front of the TV. Sounds fantastic though.

This is a really tempting deal. I want these or the 263s. My theater is in construction so not sure if I should get these or wait to see new ones come back in stock an on sale.

Tough call with how the supply chain situation is these days. These are available now. Who knows when the 263s will be.

I will say I have the 263s and they are awesome. I bought them when they were posted in here a while back. I want to say they were somewhere around $150 or $170 apiece. Sadly the RC263 center hasn't been in stock, on sale, since.

Just moved to a new house so my 162s will be doing surround duty with these as the new L/R. Excited!

I've been waiting for a sale the 263s for something like 6 months. I think this is the new lowest ever for the 253s, so I jumped on it. I have the 252 center but would love the RC263 also...nice pity party for all of us in these comments!

Great, I have the 252 center speaker for my 5.1.2 PC office setup. I have a 32in display and the center right under it, just barely fits. The 263 is totally out of the question size wise.
