I was at best buy today looking for a hdmi-hdmi cable. Yes, I was at luch and mostly just killing time. I saw the new RF-82 and RF-62. They could not get the 82's to work. They said the dvd player broken. So, they asked if I wanted to hear the 62 and said sure. I was very disappointed! It sounded like crap. I said, this sounds bad and the salesperson said let's try the definitive speakers. He hits the button and they sounded 10 times worse! Then he switc\hed them back and the 62's sounded so much better then the def's it was crazy. The def were like $599 each.
They were playing on a yammy, like a $399. gig. This is coming from a place that coundn't hook up the 82's for me. Can someone tell me that the 62's don't sound that bad and it was just the setup that they had! The construction of the new speakers stinks, like mass produced! What has our speaker company done? After hearing these speakers, you can't tell me that the rf-7's won't blow any new speaker away that klipsch makes. I got rid of my rb-35's and went with rb-5II's all the way around for this same thing! The sound was that much better. I have them with an rc-7. Not a great system but my god I was disappointed with the new stuff.
But maybe It was the place, that's why I posted this so someone can set me straight. I hope, I'm wrong about this, I really do.
