  1. If you were to swap drivers for Si hts 18s, or a bc/LaVoce 18, you'd basically have super Jtr’s[emoji16]
    I'm actually going to be getting the 215rt's and 215rm for lcr duty. [emoji16]

  2. So I finally pulled the trigger on a brand new pair of walnut The Sixes! They're gorgeous to say the least. Blew my JBL 308P MKii's out of the water. These are used mainly as the mains for my office. However, I am disappointed! These are marketed as part of the heritage line, yet they sound more like the reference line. I've owned La Scala 1's, Cornwall 1's, & Forte 1's and The Sixes doesn't have any of it's audible traits, moreso like all of the reference series that I've owned and currently do.

     

    Just my opinion, anyways, here's a comparison shot of the old vs new. 19fa851c5c61911903df2dbc403ad281.jpg

  3. $old! cash firm. I am located in So Cal. IE area. Need the money and the room. Good condition. All original. More pictures to come. Will also be listing it on Craigslist.

  4. That's correct. The entire JBL Studio 5 series has been discontinued. Supposedly JBL is getting ready to release a newer line of speakers. I was told that by the gentleman at SoundDistributors anyways.
    Are the new line an improvement over the Studio 5's?

  5. I almost a purchased a pair when they first came out but ran into a pair of La Scala's and bought those instead. Correct me if I'm wrong, but weren't the 590s around $1,000 -$1200 new for a pair back then? I might have to pick up a pair one of these days. Like the OP, I love the way it looks.

  6. I love the heritage sound and I have been thinking about grabbing either a pair of rp-160m's, the Sixes, or Heresy's to use in my office. Then, I remembered that I've always wondered how the monitors from DIYSG sound. Since they're all in the same price range, I don't know if I should take a chance on a pair of DIY's or stick with Klipsch. I wish I had the funds to try them all!

  7. I agree with the OP. The 450c simply does not match the rp-280s. The 450c sounds way too small and thin compared to the 280s. Best to probably build a custom center utilizing the same drivers and crossovers from the 280s.

  8. No worries. Honestly, I've never ran the LS's with just the Marantz. The Marantz replaced an Onkyo HT-RC270 which was powering the LS's and then the amp was added. I can tell you that when I was ab'ing the Onkyo and the Emotiva, the Emo gave the LS's a warmer sound which I loved. The Emo will give you tons of headroom given the high sensitivity of Klipsch. As of now, all I can tell you is that I have tons of headroom. The sound stage is wide, deep and huge. If you want, I can do a comparison with and without the Emo this weekend to give you an idea. Sorry I can't be of more help.

  9. Here is the Emotiva. Works perfectly, never had an issue with it. It still has the plastic saran wrap on the face of the led panel which was never removed. I believe I still have the original box for the amp as well. Again if you guys have any questions please feel free to text me at 951-956-9538. Thanks! c0e19fd2313d6c80ee0c03d01b198113.jpg

  10. Here they are. They're all original. The "white" marks you see on the side of the cabinets were due to my own fault. When I bought these from it's owner years back I transported it using a ton of bubble wrap and tape. Those "white" marks were from the tape. It took off the stain when I peeled the tape off. There's also a few chips here and there, but overall, it is in very good condition. It was powered by the Emotiva XPA-5 amp and a Marantz sr-6011 receiver. Please text me for faster response. The stain used were by Varathane in Honey Maple. If you have any questions please text me at 951-956-9538.1659d06cfe60bb68766a02f18226df6b.jpg686a47997b39e2b4b83010eb6723eb27.jpgf6c3c0f9f3ae67aac8e657c229da33f3.jpg8b23a641beb50a20dd0f3050e4c4bd9d.jpg3f9edf884a8d74dc61ebb62c9c8dc037.jpgf4ecb41d50cbb978b2339f3f641ed9ba.jpgf5d596652e92a83cc749ba691ea6a73c.jpg692317149bc47e4a483f880dd65e14f6.jpg7748feff4f6f0cf211767212fde74b6b.jpg
