@CanUhearMeNow, Welcome to the forum. Sorry none of us has greeted you by now. If only $50.00 more, then of course the newer model RP8000F. With that said, both models are very similar with incremental improvement with the RP8000F. Bill

I get the horsepower/headroom thing but the 2200's "90w/ch@8ohms" has some serious punch. I know because my A-S1000 is rated at 90w/ch and it punches way above it's weight class also. Don't get me wrong, I am an outboard amp proponent but was just curious. Bill

That Is exactly what I was going to list mine for about a year ago. I decided to hold on to it for a while longer. Very nice unit indeed and plays just about everything, very well. Good luck with your sale, Bill

Someone grab these amps. Believe me they punch way above their weight class and close to dead quiet. Good luck. Bill

Congrats on the new speakers. I am sure you will have few regrets with the upgrade. If the $$$ is available, grab one of these analog Yamaha integrated amps to pair with your Forte IVs.

You are not kidding. Bill

I do think if they were to shut the forum down, the continuous flow of word of mouth residual sales would slow down considerably. I know many of my Klipsch purchases, new and used, were prompted by forum member suggestions and good advice. Bill

@hibbs79, Where are you located? Maybe a forum member who lives close to you might have a quality 200w/ch amp for you to borrow and take a test drive before you sink 3K into a new amp. Bill

Perfectly. Vintage Marantz + vintage styled Klipsch =

Good timing in reviving this thread. I treated myself again. This time I did not "have" to sell any audio gear. Longines Legend Diver 36 Bill

I have my A-S1000 sitting on top of my CD-S1000 to help minimize vibrations. Probably only minimal benefits due to the robust build of the CD-S1000 at 33.1 pounds. Bill

@tosiddhartha, Welcome to the forum. Taking a look at the rear of your Sony receiver, I do not see any stereo preouts for you to connect an external amplifier. Bill

@trippg, Welcome to the forum. Forum folks, please give this new member some advice. Bill

Don't really know about the ferrofluid thing. All I know is that the RB-75 uses a 1.75 in. titanium dome compression driver.

RIP and let the harmonic angels continue to to feed Larry with the music he loved. 🎻🎺🎼🎵🎶🎷 Bill

Worth every penny at $700.00+. Good luck with your sale. Bill

@KenMD, Welcome to the forum. Part of the problem is Netflix and Prime, as well as other "TV" networks. At one time I did feel the only culprit was my RC-64 until I added a more neutral sounding amp(Acurus A200x3) to the mix. A little EQ with my NAD T175HD pre/pro and things became clear as a bell. Bill

Your best bet of course. I have owned two Acurus 200FIVEs, same as Aragon 2007 minus two channels, and one of them was purchased with a blown channel. Took it to my local electronics repair guy and yes the fuse was blown but that was due to a faulty output transistor on a single channel. Back then, about 13 years ago, I think I paid about $125.00 for the repair. Bill

Only found woofers this time. https://reconingspeakers.com/products-page/klipsch-rb-35-rb-75-8-woofer-120861/ Bill

Maybe get another plate amp or make it passive with an outboard amp. Bill

No question. Bill

I paired a 90's Onkyo integrated amp, I think an A-925, with my Heresy 2s in my bedroom for some time and the combination was wonderful. Also ran an Integra DTM-40.4(same as Onkyo TX-8050) network stereo receiver with my Heresys in a spare bedroom and it too was a great combination. Your Onkyo TX-SR805 is an overbuilt beast of an AVR with great capabilities. Definitely will not hurt to try. Bill

One of my best friends of 54 years with Joe at Normans Rare Guitars. Hal giving Joe's 59 Les Paul a "test run". The Les Paul on left in Joe's hands is about $7,000.00. Hal was asking Joe his opinion before purchasing it. The Les Paul in Hal's hands was Joe's and worth around $350,000.00. Hal said he had never been so nervous holding a guitar before in his life. That is exactly what Hal said. A guitar geek through in through. Bill
