Formica????? Better looking than Khorns?
It makes me think of a saying we had back in college that went something like, "wow, I wouldn't play those with YOUR system".

BEC - I'll email you. Thanks.
Another idea...
This might be a dumb question, but what is the possibility of using the mid & hi horns and crossovers from Heresy HBR's and swapping out the 12" woofer with the 15" K-33 and putting all of them in a homemade Cornwall clone cabinet?
The Heresy and Cornwall use the same mid & hi. I suspect the crossover would have to be modified to work well with the 15" woofers.
Sound ok? I have access to a pair of heresy's, but I want the bass of the cornwalls.
Thanks

Hi. I've seen the plans here on the forums for building Cornwall cabinets. Other than finding used parts piece by piece on ebay etc., is there another way to get all the required drivers and crossovers? Anyone know if you can get all the drivers and crossovers new from Klipsch and ballpark pricing on what they would cost? I'm pretty good with wood, so I'm really interested in doing a project like this. I'm leary of finding old parts one at a time on ebay though.
Thanks

If they were in the Northeast, I would buy them right now. You want to meet me halfway, like say at the Boston airport?

jacksonbart - so posting one's opinion and how you came to that opinion
on a pair of speakers is being a troll, but just calling someone else a
troll is not trolling? Why not contribute information instead of
just sitting back and pointing fingers? Do you have any info to
contribute to the topic of this thread?

silversport - I was saying "not really" to Big Piney because he said he
knows where to look for speakers to replace his KG lineup and
specifically asked what series that is made today to look at.
As for the new Synergy lineup...not too impressive....you can go to Best Buy to confirm that. :>(

Maybe a little over the top, but my friends and I have listened to
multiple demos of the RF-7s and have never been impressed. I
alone have listened to them 4 different times at 3 different stores
(twice at the same store with different set ups). We are talking
about a $2200 set of speakers that IMO are just no where near worth the
money. There are just better speakers out there for that kind of
money. Period. This is coming from a long time Klipsch
fan. I have been listening to and loving Klipsch speakers for
nearly 20 years.
There is something to be said when you can go on ebay and buy 12 year
old Chorus IIs for $600 and even according to the RF-7 lovers the old
$600 speakers sound as good (in my ears better) than the $2200
RF-7s. You might really love your RF-7s, but I think you can't
see the forest for the trees. It is an issue that Klipsch needs
to address with their new speaker development.

Not really. The new Synergy lineup does not come close to the performance of the old KG lineup.

I have the old KG 4.2's, one of my friends has a pair of Chorus, and
another friend has the Chorus IIs. We have all listened to
multiple demos of the RF-7s and we have all come to the same
conclusion. None of us would ever buy RF-7s. They are
muddy and have a lousy low end. Not a music speaker for
sure. They are made to be used with a sub for movies. If
your new Choruses are in decent shape, you just might put the RF-7's on
ebay.

RSW-12 vs. RT-10d vs. RW-12d

I see that the vendor lists the sub as the "RSW-12B". What is the deal with the "B"? What did the box it came in say?
Thanks
