  1. Hi I received a new RC-35 that has a slight scuff (see photo's) one photo is close up the other is about 1 foot away It is superficial and would be easy to repair I am sending it back to Klipsch Friday but thought I would give a member that has been wanting one a shot at it first This has to be picked up local sorry I cant ship it Price is $220
  2. Steven That chair looks wicked Very original and creative I forgot to mention if you use the milk crates for your seating you may want to consider covering the top with cardboard (Also available behind the supermarket) This will prevent your backside looking like your breakfast waffle after a serious listening session
  3. Popbumper said "Will this end? Will our hero be trapped in an unconsciousness of horn-induced madness?" Yep pretty soon you will be hosting garage sales trying to sell your furniture off to get a pair of K-Horns I can see it now, Empty room with 2 K-Horns and a pair of milk crates to sit on PS if you hang around the back of a supermarket at night you may be able to ****** a pair of crates I have seen herds of Klipsch addicts gathering at dawn for a chance to acquire some fine furnishings The ones with Safeway stamped on them are becomming quite collectable
  4. Hi Honestly when we are talking about chairs in this price range there really is not much difference except that the Berklines Have a contemporary design (they dont look like your grandpa's chair) can be bolted together to make a curve they have cup holders and have factory installed Butt Kickers They are very wide and have lots of Hip Space When you get into the higher end chairs like Cinema Tec the back is cut lower so your ears are above the back of the rear cushion these are big bucks
  5. Hi Just so we are comparing apples to apples the 090's for $850 each come with Power Recline and Factory installed LFE Butt Kickers These are the large acuators
  6. Hi All We will give free THX room Mode Calculations to anyone interested in any THX certified product We also have in home consultations for any of the DIY/Home contractors That prefer to install the system If you are patient and have a little mechanical ability you can install you own system and can learn allot about your system in the process Or you can do the majority of the work and then use a service to terminate and calibrate your system and them certify your room We will be demoing the full THX system soon and will gladly give any Tec support we can offer and for those on a strict budget (I CAN RELATE!!) You should be able to acquire the system in pieces and build it over time Hope this helps
  7. Hi Build quality is very nice I have had no complaints These are the 090's they are larger than the Lazy Boys the Berkline 088 and 087's are more like the Lazy Boys The leather is soft like Isotoner Gloves and they can be ordered in any configuration Straight or Arch bolt together Wedge Higher grade leathers and colors are available and many fabrics Hope this helps
  8. Sorry Forgot the other picture
  9. Hi you can get Berkline 090 Cinema Chairs in Black,Red or Toupe Leather Match (everything that touches you is leather)with Auto Recline <---Power and factory installed LFE Butt Kickers for $850 per seat These are the large comfy chairs with cup holders on both sides The auto recline is smooth and quite and reclines to a full horizontal position and only needs about 4" of wall space The LFE Butt Kickers are powerful and are a cool and unique feature to have in a Home Theater Sorry about the picture its hard to photo black and my showroom is a dark color

  13. [quote}Rats... I had read that the new DLP projectors had gotten so good, the "rainbow" effect that many viewers have reported being susceptible to was no longer an issue. Hi Go have a look at the new Infocus Screenplay 7205 It is a HD2+ projector with a 5x 7 segment color wheel and dimple fix The new wheel modulates the light better Here is a link for you MSRP is $8999 http://www.infocushome.com/amer/eng/products/screenplay/sp7205.asp
  14. Hi All Giving one of the members here first chance at these *These are for local sale only* http://cgi.videogon.com/cgi-bin/cl.pl?spkrmain&1083772360&view&1078770018
  15. Hi Rubber pie shaped Door stops work very well for angleing a speaker down or up.They are available at Home Depot for about $2 for 2 White or Brown Cheers
  16. "Someday........... I'd like to hear some real estate tag the house is THX Certed and become a selling point for those agents" Now you have me thinking Hey they have Monster House How bout THX House ? I would be cool with that
  17. Yeah but in reality, none of this means Jack, since everyone's listening environment is NOT THX CERTIFIED....You tell me what Colorimetry,Viewing Angles,Seating Charts have to do with MY VIEWING ENVIRONMENT. NADDA And then let's look at the NON-EXISTENT... THX Circuitry HUH WHAT's With this? Arrggh....There should be more effort to adapt "REAL STANDARDS" like IEEE 1394/Firewire Uh Okayyyyyyyyyyyyy ????????
  18. Hi You have some valid points.There are some places where Klipsch dealers are few and far in between.But the Klipsch line of speakers are worthy of a little drive and a good dealer would make an effort for delivery and setup for someone who is disabled We are a Custom Installation Shop. I prefer to do business in person, giving demos, explaining merits of proper istallation, designing home theaters, and seeing the joy of the person after an installation or demo. That is why I am in the business. I have been doing this with my company since 1993 and I still get a RUSH everytime I give a demo. Cheers
  19. THX Circuitry Bass Management>Timber Match>Adaptive Decorrelation> Re-Equalization> Loudspeaker Synchronization> Output Level Control. Before you dissmiss the benefits of THX (Its more than a tag or a simple circuit) It incudes set up and tuning,acoustics,installation, design and planning insatllation cosiderations (HVAC,Lighting,Colorimetry,Viewing Angles,Seating Charts ect.. Ask the Mod at Aragon what it takes to get a piece of gear certified by THX I have seen the process and it is intense The reports for a single piece of gear looks like the annual budget report Cheers and as always Happy Listening
  20. There are a few folks that stray from the line . but most find there way back I recently had a client that Sold off his Klipsch speakers 5 years ago after many of the so called audiophile brands in his set up he came back after spending $$$ on pre amps,cables,transports ect... what most folks miss is the dynamic ability and the Impact of the speaker line Many confuse this ability as Bright,Forward and Unforgiving (They will let you know if your front end is the weak link) many other speaker lines will mask these problems The other thing to keep in mind is where you Demo Klipsch speakers the room may help a conventional speaker sound good and a horn speaker sound bad
  21. Hi Yes that is the Picture of the new THX speakers They are due out in April I Hope Heard them at CES after the show had closed at the THX booth we were able to turn them up a bit.They were Awesome!!! Last I heard MSRP is TBA We should have some solid pricing soon
