[Just bought a La Scala AL-3]

I finally got the pictures in. The speakers are still in my living room. Got them late this afternoon.

The S/Ns are 12421 and 12422. P/Ns are 09000711210 on both speaker.

Thanks,

[Just bought a La Scala AL-3]

Please tell me this was a good buy. I drove 36 mins and paid $600 for the pair. The black lacquer paint

still smooth. Some minor scratch but nothing major. The numbers are in sequence, 12421 and 12422.

I tested both speakers with a small receiver and both worked nicely. Just a simple test to make sure

the speakers work. Anyway to tell when this speaker was assembled?

My intention is to replace my main RF-3ii with the La Scala set. Will this work?

See attached pics.

I was hoping for an RF-83s to replace my RF-3II but nothing has come up yet. There is one RF-83 listed

in craigslist now but the guy hasn't responded to my offer so I got the La Scala instead.

[Nee your opinion on RW10 -vs- RW10d]

I'm about to purchase a used RW10 for $200. Can someone please tell me if this sub

is worth the price. I haven't seen the sub yet but according to the seller, it's RW10.

Thanks!

[KSW-12 potential replacement for my Velodyne]

Anyway to delete a post?

I should have done a bit more investigation before posting my KSW query. Maybe an RW-10d is a good start for a 1500sqft room?

[KSW-12 potential replacement for my Velodyne]

Hello all.

I'm looking to replace my Velodyne VA-10/12 with a Klipsch sub.

I found in CL a KSW-12 and asking price is $275.

Here's the actual add:

12" KLIPSCH REFERENCE SERIES 1000WATTS POWERED SUBWOOFER BLACK DOWNWARD FIRING.

Can someone please tell me if this is a good replacement and if

the asking price is fair?

Any suggestion or idea is appreciated.

Thanks!

[Soon to replace my Velodyne VA 10/12 with Klipsch subwoofer]

Klipsch Synergy Sub12 with RF35, RC62, RS62.

"Fist Of God"

I think UltimateElectronics carry that model. I'll have to check it out.

Thanks!

[Soon to replace my Velodyne VA 10/12 with Klipsch subwoofer]

Hello all.

I had my VA 10/12 since late 90's and I've always enjoyed it's
performance as far as lows and soft-lows are concerned.

When watching a movie, the VA 10/12 does not necessarily put out
a nice big "thud" or jolts on big thunderous explosions. It is
awesome on progressive thunderous-vibrating explosions but on
the softer side.

Now, with all Klipsch speakers in my HT, I'd like to replace my
VA 10/12 with a Klipsch subwoofer that can go "BOOM!" or "THUDD!"

Not being able to experience the many different Klipsch subwoofers
out there, I'd like to get some opinion from everyone before placing
my VA 10/12 in CL.

Can you please tell me what model you're using and your experience
with it?

Thanks!

[Does anyone have input on RF-3 ll and RC-3 ll]

Hi there.

My speakers are the RF-3 II series like the one you're buying(or already bought). My HT room is pretty small,

about 14' x 12', and I have 7.1(all RF-3 II except for the RS-42 rear surround). And for my bass, I'm also using

a Velodyne 10/12.

As for the sound, well, I have to be biased on this one...they're freakin awesome! I cranked the volume down

once to 0(say -25 at the volume level is a conversation level) and vibrations from the wall is becoming apparent

but there were no signs of problems with the speakers...they handle the load just fine. I would normally watch

my movies at -15-10 at the volume level and with Velodyne crancked at 1/4th turn, the thudds in Terminator

just come to life.

Depending on room size, the RF-3 II systems will serve you just fine.

Good luck,

jav

[Lets see YOUR Home Theater:]

Hello everyone. I'm nearly reluctant to show my setup since my speakers are a bit outdated
but I hope you guys don't mind. I've been working on my basement for almost exactly 12 months
and I've finally gotten my things hooked up.

The pictures didn't come out as well as I'd like them but it's the best I could do

Klipsch RF-3 II - front
Klipsch RC-3 II - center
Klipsch RS-3 II - surround
Klipsch RS-42 - back surround
Velodyne 10/12
Mitsubishi Diamond Series - Model 57833
Pioneer VSX-91TXH 7.1
Pioneer BDP-94HD
APC 900 UPS
Monster Power HTS-5100
Lutron MIR-600THW - Lighting Remote Control
Blue Jeans HDMI Cables
Monster XP Speaker Cables - CL3 Rated
Auralex Sound Control and Sonex Sound Absorption Panels
Room Dimension: 14' X 12', 20AMP dedicated circuit

Here are some pics:

During the planning stage, a 7-speaker system for the 14'x12' room I thought was an over-kill
but I'm glad I did...because I can say now, I have a 7.1 system...and Apocalypto sounds awesome!

I'm very satisfied with my HT, granted it took me a year to complete, but it was all worth it. BTW,
for the RF II speakers, I bought them for $500 but it also came with an HK receiver which I eventualy
sold for $65. The RS-42 was bought online.

Favorite blu movie:

Apocalyto
Flight of the Phoenix
Terminator - Judgement Day
Bloodiamond


Thanks for letting me share my little story!

[RF-3 foot base]

I've recently purchased an RF-3 speaker systems and one of the foot(base), the one that is screwed under

Thanks!
