  1. It has a weak bass (not completely without bass) but from what I hear from this thread and Klipsch customer service, a sub woofer is the fix. But as TNRabbit suggested I today I will check the connections inside and will post my findings.
  2. Thanks for your suggestion. Yes all 4 drivers and the tweeers produce sound.
  3. I listen to a variey of genre - rock, a bit of popular classicals, instrumentals, Indian fusion (movie sound trakcs -Slumdog and likes). The Onkyo I have sounds with good bass in my Bose (within what can be expected of Bose) and certainly a lot better bass than the what the my R3's produce now. As someone pointed out earlier today , there is something that is still missing - I would need to check whether al the 4 drivers are working.
  4. Well , after trying out various things I connected a Bose Sub Ihat I have. The sound is not room filling, but house filling !!!. The highs are extremley good, but there is a lot odf room to improve in my opinion - with a nice tightt sub. You are right , these speakers require a nice well engineered sub. Any recommendations in the not so exotic price range. ? This community is full of really nice people - appreciate the expertise, warmth and the friendliness of every one. Thanks a million.!!!
  5. Thanks for the reply. Pardon my ignorance. Would you elaborate what 'in phase' means? Is that the polarity ? In phase means that the + on the receiver goes to the + on the speaker. If one of the speakers is wired backwards then the bass from one will cancel the other one out. It's also possible (less likely however) that if someone worked on the speaker that the speaker could be wired out of phase inside the cabinet. Thank you very much for patiently explaining. I will check that out.

  7. Thank you for taking time to respond. Yes I did check the receiver settiings and every thing seems to be OK., b ut still no improvement in bass.
  8. Configuration - Reference series RF3 connected to Onkyo 100 W THX receiver., , no sub woofer connected. No bi amp or bi wiring done. The highs are good, mid OK , but the bass has no strength in it is very weak. I happened to bump into aTotem and a wharfedale - which seem to have a very good bass (tight for totem abd a bit boomy for the wharfedale ) without sub woofers . Are Klipsch reference speakers are made to require sub woofers ? (I'm not very techie interms of crossovers and sort!!) Any help regarding improving the bass performance would be highly appreciated. Thanks.
