I am looking for a full range sympathy orchestra that would best compliment the Klipsch RF-7 set-up. Any specific recordings/ orcestras you can recommend??

Thanks for all the help guys. I just went through all of my wiring connected to the blue jeans banana plugs and found no lose strands of wire touching the wrong terminal. Later this week i will tweek the speaker settings from large to small and see what happens. I have another question... I am going through upgrade hell! I never thought I would need to replace my RF-35, RC-35, & surrounds thinking that I have a better system than 90 percent of home theatres owners and it sounds great! (the set-up sure drained the bank account) What little did I know... 1 year later I am in the midst of scrapping this whole set-up and moving up to the big boys RF-7 and the rest of its companions. (Wow I could have paid off my car by now---but what fun would that be.) My question is..... I am thinking about upgrading my RC-35 center channel to the RC-7. What difference would this make? (Does the RC-35 timber match with the RF-7) The second part of my question is simply should I look at upgrading my center channel before adding a power amp. Which is a better move to do with my current set-up. thanks despatch

Thanks for the info! I will check the wiring on my receiver tommorow. Starting to get a little concerned here. I've only had the receiver for about a year and would be very dissapointed if I had to get it serviced. (My new RF-7s would be powerless. By the way... I have the cross over set at 80hz The receiver shut down 4 different times during the DTS trailer demo of the haunting. I just don't think the receiver should have shut down at the volume levels I had them at. I drove star wars Episode 2 to similar levels and sometimes higher with no shut down. My brother provided me with this dts demo dvd which he burned off the net. It features the haunting, eagles, saving private ryan, roy orbison etc. I cannot see any reason why obtaining this dts trailer off the net and burning it to a dvd would cause any problems with the receiver processing of the material. I drove the hec out of rf-35s with this same trailer with no shut down.... Sorry for the rambling here... I will check the wiring..

What is the most economical power amp that fits in the price range of $300 to $500.00 that will maximize the productivity of my RF-7 towers for both music and movies. The RSW-15 is always running during music and was thinking that I will not need a premier model power amp because I am running my sub. I simply want to maximize the quality of the sound on my new RF-7s. (bass extension- highs, mids, and low.)---everything within reason Here are my speaker settings.. (pionner elite receiver) RF-7 set at large side surrounds (small) rears (small) Sub setting (Yes, plus) *I went into my acoustic equalizer and turned up the bass frequencies on the towers (from 0.00 to 2.5) which may have caused the receiver to shut down during the movie "The Haunting." I was just not getting enough bass from the RF-7s prior to changing the calibration settings on the equalizer. ??? How do the Outlaw amps sound??? Thanks again

Sorry for the double post. (I can't figured out how I did that. ) I finally bit the bullet and puchased a pair of RF-7s from my local Ultimate Electronics Retailer. Hats off to the outstanding sales and service support I received from the Ultimate Electronics sales staff. I will not elaborate to much on the performance of the RF-7 other than simply sensational. The beautiful cherry finish enriched by the sensationally clear and full sound has transformed my listening area in a live sound stage! My question... Any suggestions on a power amp to run the RF-7s only. My receiver surprisingly shut itself off last night during certain scenes of the movie "The Haunting" while running the RF-7s. The receiver would not shut down while running the RF-35s *Of course I had the receiver turned up louder than usual. *I have not expereienced this problem with any other media with the volume turned up (Music and Movies in DTS, Dolby Digital, & stereo) with either the RF-7 or RF-35 Here is my set-up Pioneer Elite VSX-53tx (100w x 7) receiver RSW-15, RF-7, RS-7, RC-35 Thank you

Somehow I double posted a thread. sorry. Despatch.

Put it this way... not the scratching post that we have so dilegently trained him to use.. not the curtains... not the couch... not the matress... He went for the gold (my Klipsch tower speaker) Yes, he got it... Nothing better than hacked up grill in prime listening view sight. I can't wait to sit down and enjoy the music tonight... Can anybody out there suggest where i would find replacement fabric for the speaker grill??? I need it to match my other 6 klipsch speakers. ***I assume that i am not the first person this has happened to and probably won't be the last. To anybody interested: Any speaker horror stories that you wish to share? Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated! despatch
