SOLD! I really shouldn't have had any doubt about the F-II's (I grew up with a pair of La Scala's that are older than me at my Dad's house), but I thought the deal was too good to be true. My Onkyo had no problem pushing them to where they needed to be (and with less power than my former setup), rendering my KSW-12 useless for the moment, and now my SB-1 mains are my new rears. The KV-1 center gives much more clarity than my SC.5, but I have to crank it up because the F-2's drown it out. Thanks for all the replies everyone.

Second question: Are all of your friends this generous? ---------------- Actually, this coworker is technically my boss. Offering these to me at this price is his way of making up for all the extra footwork (and I'm using the most polite term possible) I have to deal with when he doesn't want to. I'm taking them home with me tonight to see how they sound with my Onkyo (which is a pretty low powered receiver). Trust me fellas, I want them badly, but I'm not coughing up any cash till I get to hear them in my environment, with my music and films. If I don't buy them, you guys will be the first to know.

Hello all. First time poster here with a conundrum. A coworker is offering to sell me his 9 year old F-II's (very nice condition, not used very often, no visible flaws), and a KV-1 center channel for $200. I've tested the F-II's at my work, and all components appear to function properly. However, I've not had a chance to take them home to hook up to my rig (which is currently an Onkyo TXDS-494, Klipsch SB-1's for mains, SC.5 center channel, KSW-12 sub, and 2 Sony rears in a 13x 13 room). Being conscious of Klipsch's high quality, I want to fork over the cash immediately, but I've grown accustom to my current, small setup. Can anyone give me any advice as to why I should or shouldn't purchase these speakers? Or should I just take them home and let me ears make the decision (which is what I'm leaning towards, but if someone has any hints/advice, I'd be very appreciative to hear it).
