How do they sound? Are you completely happy with them ?

Has anyone any experiences or opinions on Emotiva amplifiers and how they combine with Klipsch speakers? I have read some reviews suggesting their outstanding performance is second only to their value for money. Any one out there agree or disagree ?? Thanks.

Thanks for your reply Soundbroker. My passion is DVD concerts as well as a good movie. Can these surrounds handle the musical side of things Regards

Does anyone recommend or otherwise the performance of the 62's. Can they be pushed a little harder than most rears? Are they detailsd or just a sound sprayer? Thanks

Any opinions at all on the 62's ???????

I need to purchase a pair of rears to go with my RF 7's .Has anyone any experience with the RS 62's ?? Any recommendations for rears if these are incompatable ? Thanks

Thanks a lot Zuzu for the reply. Could you tell me please how sigificant was the improvement between the NAD and the 1080 ? Was it greater than the 1080 and the 1090 ? My gut feeling is the 1080 but if you with your educated ear and impressive audio recommend the 1090 i'll have to wait and save. Thanks again Zuzu on yor insights .

Hey Zuzu How do the 7's go with your 1090 ? I have to make a decision soon between the 1090 or the 1080 and would appreciate your opinion. I'm sure either way I go it wont be a mistake.Thanks

Thanks for all the information guys but tell me then what is the motivation for bridging amps together bearing in mind the distortion issue ?

I think that is a valid point Leo. I will do an A / B comparison without being captivated by stats . The bottom line as you say mate is the sound not the specs.Thanks Leo the 1080 looks the short priced favorite

The bottom line for me is which option will get the best out of the 7's .In Sydney the RB 1080 goes for $1550 whilst the RB 1070 go for $900 . He will do 2 1070's for $1500 as he insists it will provide superior results . I will do an A / B comparison but the distortion issue with bridging 2 anmps concerns me more than the increase in power by doing the same.

DOES ANYONE HAVE AN OPINION ON WHICH WOULD WORK BEST WITH THE RF 7'S ? A ROTEL RB 1080 (2 X 200 W ) OR 2 RB 1070'S ( 2 X 130 W ) BRIDGED TOGETHER . I WAS JUST ABOUT TO BUY THE 1080 WHEN ADVISED ( by a rotel dealer ) THAT THE 2ND OPTION WOULD SOUND MUCH BETTER . I DONT TRUST HIM , I TRUST THE FORUM FOR INFO. THANKS

Does anyone out there have any feedback on the CDT-5800's .I am considering them as my rears as I have limited options due to roomsize. Are they able to be pushed fairly hard as Iike to listen to DVD concerts at realistic spl's. Would they be a reasonable match for my RF7'S, Velodyne hgs18 or would they be overwhelmed. Also would it be a mistake to purchase a Rotel rb 1080 and put it through my Denon 4802 using the Denon for the centre and rears whilst powering the 7's with the Rotel? Could that work OK or not as I feel I'm not getting the best from the 7's with the Denon Reciever and Ive heard seperates are the way to go with Klipsch Reference series.Thanks in advance for any feedback. I really am uncertain about inceiling speakers but if it was to work it would have to Klipsch!!!

Thanks skepjk01 for your reply. I was on the verge of obtaiining a Rotel rb 1080 for my 7's but I suffered a major financial setback. She's gone, I'm back and I want to grab an amp that will get the best out of the 7's rather than a Denon 4802 which is OK but doesn't do it for me. I have a Velodyne HGS 18 and Ilike it at concert levels. The topend is a bit much at present. I'm 49 and the older I get the louder ,cleaner and tighter this old Aussie loves it.

Does anyone have any experience or info on Emotiva amps? After reading a review in Audioholics about the RPA-1 I am considering a partnership with it a my RF 7's. I cant find a bad word about them. Thanks.

My tweeter blew in my RF 7 and is currently in getting repaired as warrenty work. Do they source a genuine tweeter replacement from the USA or from China ??? Thanks.

Cjgeraci what you were experiencing at high spl's in terms of shrillness I am hearing at moderate levels as well as high levels.Also the midrange tends to take 2 steps back in comparison to the highs and lows I believe a seperate power amp may rectify these issues to some extent.I also considered getting the crossovers done but Dean G is a long way from Sydney and I dont know of anyone I'd trust here to do the deed if in fact that deed would help solve the issue. Good clean power couldn't hurt I guess.Many thanks to your good self as well as UFOblaster ans Skonopa for taking the time to assist me with both your knowledge and your experiences .I appreciate your feedback and insight.

As the owner of a pair of RF 7's would I be heading in the right direction by coupling them with the RB 1080 as I feel they are under performing in 2 channel mode with my Denon 4802. Thanks.

I have an 'old' Velo HGS 18.It blends in seamlessly with the 7's with music or with movies it can if asked crack the slab your home is built on if that turns you on.I picked it up for 3 grand Oz.

I am now considering the RS 62's but am not prepared to pay the asking recommended rip off price ( $2000 ) here in Australia.How much are they in the US and what would it be worth to get them over here if infact it was cost effective??? Has anyone an opinion of the performance of the 62's ??? Thanks.

Oldtimer thanks for the reply, it is to be used as in 5.1. Due to the lack of response on this subject I'm going cold on the idea of ceiling speakers matched with RF 7's and a RC 7.Although I feel it would appear overkill to outlay huge money for a pair of rears that are no more than 6 feet from my ears and also I wonder how much signal they do recieve in comparison to the big three up front to validate the outlay? Can anyone recommend a pair of rears that will do DTS concerts justice??

Would I be purchasing a weak link by obtaining in ceiling speakers as rears???

Anyone out there with a first hand evaluation of the 5800's.Due to the fact that I am unable to place surrounds behind my listening /viewing position I am tentatively considering inceiling speakers to go with my RF 7's.Any advice or opinions would be appreciated.Thanks[H]

I have a pair of RF 7'S , an RC 7 and a pair of RF 35's I am running them with a Denon AVC A11 sr. I would like to know which would be the better way to go.To get the Rotel RB 1092 ( I still play a lot of 2 channel ) and run the centre and rears with the Denon when running multi channel or to purchase a RMB 1095 ?? Are either of the Rotels a good match for my beloved Klipsch as I feel the the Denon A11, 5 x 125 or 2 x 160 is not getting all the juice from my Klipsch oranges.Thanks /

I also own the RF 7's and find they dont overwhelm my Velodyne HGS 18. They are an excellent powerful combination that blend well together in a dynamic manner.
