Stephen: Thanks for giving me your feedback. All: I am really looking for some feedback regarding your experiences with tube integrated amps with RF-5. I tried getting feednack for klipsch speakers outside this forum to start with and I never got any feedback. That is when I was recommended to get to the klipsch forum seeking some help. I am hoping that I can get some guidance on this forum as this is a klipsch forum. Thanks for your guidance and feedback. Mike

Hi, The choices I am looking at for may front speakers are: Klipsch RF-5 (or) RF-7 vs Paradigm Studio 60 v3 vs Paradigm Studio 100 v3 I would like to ask some questions I have regarding my Home Theater options. I will highly appreciate if you can let me know which one will be better for my Home Theater Usage. My usage is 75% HT and 25% Music. Some of the criteria i have are: 1. Reasonably efficient speakers that can be driven by any $700 reciever preferably. But I am also open to adding a 2 channel power amp like NAD C272 ($400 used, 150 watts/ch 4 and 8 ohms) for the front speakers. 2. The Home theater set-up needs to have very good effects and real slam. I have the budget to add a SVS / HSU sub ( $800 ) 3. A good center channel speaker that reproduces dialogues and blasts efficently. Basically dialogue needs to be heard properly ( Paradigm CC570 vs Klipsch RC-7 vs Paraidgm CC 470 ) 4. Finally a decent system musically. I will be using this 25% of the times for music. I like good vocals, instruments, strings etc Highly appreciate your input and guidance Thanks Mike

Hi, Klipsch RF-5 / RF -7has very high sensitivity like 99 db and 101 db respectively. Particularly with RF-5, impedence drops is not an issue. So I am very confidently expecting that tube integrateds can drive RF-5 very easily. Did anyone try tube integarted amps with Klipsch speakers and in-case anyone tried with RF-5s? If so can you please let me know your expereinces with tube integrated amps for Klipsch, I will highly appreciate it. My musical preferences are vocals, jazz, strings and instruments. Thanks Mike
