  1. Thanks for the thread, but I guess XStandard doesn't work in Mac OS 10.5.2. It acts like it will work, than when I click post at the bottom, the screen reverts back to the post screen.

    So I'm stuck for now. Thanks for your efforts, I appreciate it.

    shift/enter doesn't work either.

  2. I'm on a Mac using Safari. It looks like that requires a special Plug-In that I don't have.

    I have now changed to Plain Text Editor.

    Does that work?

    Nope?

    I guess you guys did something that made this site not Mac friendly. It used to format just fine. Oh Well??

  3. Can someone please tell me why I can't format a post the way I want anymore? I would like to break things up by lines, paragraphs, sometimes web address, etc, and sign my name at the bottom. For about the last month or so, all my posts have been run on sentences, one after the other. No matter what I try I can't separate anything. Why is this happening?---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------Lou

  4. Wow - Old thread resurrected with my first post here. I still have the RF82s and ditched the MLs and got the RC-82. I've also added an RW-12d, which IMO, was well needed. I'm a happy camper.-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------Lou

  5. So - No sonic benefit - Right?---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------Lou

  6. Pun intended! Why do people use a Y-Cable for the LFE Signal from a receiver with one sub RCA out from the receiver. At least the Klipsch manual states to use the left RCA input for the LFE signal from the receiver, and both the left and right for inputs from a pre-amp. Is the "Y" an advantage? My RW-12D seems to be working just fine with a single shielded cable.-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------Lou

  7. Bought the RW-12d

    Me Too!--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------Lou

  8. Since they don't carry the RC-62

     

    That makes no sense to me.  Why does BB carry the RF-82 and hook it up to the RC-52 and not even carry the RC-62.   

    They also carry the RF-62. Makes no sense to me either??????------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------Lou

  9. I also bought my RF-82s from BestBuy. Since they don't carry the RC-62, I bought it from an internet reseller. Try and listen to the RC-62 with your speakers, If you can hear a difference, upgrade, if not stay with what you got. But, IMO, you will hear the difference.---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------Lou

  10. My front speakers are RF 82s,The RC 62 took the place of the RC35.I can see on the spec. page thier are a little diffarence in the two

    I just wonder is one much better sounding than the other.  Thanks

    It's not that one is better sounding than the other, but the sonic match between your fronts and the center. You want your soundstage to be seamless. The RC-35 is designed for use in the earlier Klipsch RF series, and has a horn with slightly different sonic and design characteristics than the RC-62.--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------Lou

  11. Hello,I am new to the community and have a question. I have a RC 52 center and I just upgraded my front speakers to the RF 82s ( They are awsome )

    I am thinking about getting a RC62 and would like to know how much difference thier is between the two. Thanks

    According to the Klipsch literature the description of the horns is slightly different, and the woofers are a different size. As you are aware the RC-62 is supposed to be the correct match for the RF-82s. I have this setup and the soundstage is seamless. Since you already have the RC-52, try it out, and if you feel like you need more, sell it and upgrade to the proper center.___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________

  12. I'm planning on using this setup with my 37" Sony LCD to watch movies, TV series on DVD, and occasionally listen to some music.

    Why are you going stereo since you're going to watch movies? 60% of the sound track comes out of the front (center) channel. Without a center speaker, you'll be missing a bunch. At least go for a 3.0 set-up. I have a 3.0, but I just bought an RW-12d to turn it into a 3.1. (My wife refuses to clutter up the house with surround speakers). I have RF-82s and an RC-62.

  13. As was stated above, if it sounds good to you - than keep what you've got and enjoy. However, sonically the RC-52 is not a perfect match for the RF-62, the RC-62 is. I had the same issue as you with my RF-82s. Again, sonically the RC-62 is a match for the horn on the RF-82. I got my RF-82s from Best Buy, but they don't sell the RC-62, only the RC-52. I ended up buying an RC-62 on the web, and my soundstage is seamless.

  14. On the flip side of that coin. My wife has a Toyota Camry. Camry's are made in the USA and Japan. If you were buying one, what would your choice of origin be? Both models are designed in the same place and are supposed to be the same. Well, I chose the one made in Japan. I just believe the quality's better. The Japanese are teaching us how to build cars. There is one visual difference, the Japanese model has a cover for a tow hook in the front bumper, the one made in the USA doesn't.

    Back in 1993, I as helping my brother buy a car for his wife, a new Honda Accord. We had the same choice. We chose the Japanese car. She's still driving it today.

    So, IMO, things can be made to any quality level you desire, if you have the money. This means the proper facilities, proper design, proper management, properly trained workers and etc.

    Amy, I disagree with you. A product should be labeled with the company of manufacture not with the country that design's or tests the product.

    BTW, I am very happy with my Chinese RF-82s
