I love this Forum!!! - Thanks ALL FYI: not going to purchase the Magnavox tube amp. I think it best to wait until I can afford some tubes which are better suited to my listening tastes. LOL - gonna be a long wait!!! The BIG mono block Mc's are $$$ (oh yeah, and a house out in the country) ♪ ♫ ♪

Hi Billy Have decided to hold off on this unit. Thankful for Joe's comment about the build quality. I am so happy with the 150+ watt mono block Rotel's that it just does not seem worth the risk. Plus, I could use that money for more Rotel equipment (can never have too much!) Have a great day my friend ♪ ♫ ♪

Yikes!!! Thank you very much Joes!!! Muchas Gracias

Thanks NOS, your comments are very helpful. Not sure if the good will outweigh the bad. My listening tastes would most likely be a set up for disappointment on this unit. An awful lot of work involved to wind up with "mush" (i.e. tear down, set up, tear back down). Darn tubes are so expensive! Still torn though, maybe just a taste, HMMMM?

Found this on CL today. Thinking of making an offer but first would like to know the forum's opinion. Have never really been interested in going with tubes but at this price I may venture to at least stick a toe in the water. It would be powering a pair of '96 Scala's... http://columbiamo.craigslist.org/ele/4505923059.html Thanks ♪ ♫ ♪

GET HIM BEEKER

saw these on CL and thought maybe worth sharing. Never seen anything like this. Would love to witness... http://columbiamo.craigslist.org/ele/4477942374.html

Thank you Billy!!! Rock n' Roll my Friend ♪ ♫ ♪ - Zelda Bean is thumpin'

I have been using Photobucket to attach pictures to my posts. They are crummy and compressed on the posting page. Then once opened are still of bad quality. Can someone please help me post better pictures for our viewing pleasure? How do you do it? Thank you in advance - off to work... Matt ♪ ♫ ♪

Welcome Keegan, Most likely to suit your needs would be an integrated amplifier. Integrated is the combination of the amplifier and pre-amp. You will be able to find a decent, used unit in your budget. Take your time and do a little research/shopping. I prefer Rotel gear. It is relatively affordable and well built. Look on eBay for starters. There are many manufactures to choose from (i.e. Yamaha, Adcom, Carver, Emotiva, Marantz etc.etc.) Narrow your search to used gear. Hope this helps to get you started ♪ ♫ ♪ link below is an example of what you may want to look into - no affiliation... http://www.ebay.com/itm/Onkyo-A-809-Integrated-Amplifier-/281337329448?pt=US_Home_Audio_Amplifiers_Preamps&hash=item418102f728 p.s. - please watch the use of profanity - TY

Geeze, I am already borderline with the neighbors. Indoor subs rattle windows in the house ACROSS THE STREET!!! LIFE IS GOOD

yes Taz - I agree mighty fine "luck" indeed... ...more of a Blessing if you will

Klipsch is a highly efficient speaker. There is tons of knowledge here and I have a great deal of respect for this forums members. The following is my opinion only! The RF-7 is a power hungry MONSTER! I was running an original pair of 7's thru a 125 wpc Adcom. Knowing that these beasts could handle much more, I bit the bullet. My search brought to me a mint Yamaha M-80 rated at 250 wpc. The difference was substantial. Bottom end from the 7's could now be felt all the way to the bones. The upgrade was like cracking the throat open of a finely tuned hot rod. ...again, my experience and opinion only Experimentation is fun it can however be costly as well...

I think you mean Zelda Bean, Billy

Yes RG, the 8" driver is missing, not the radiator. Thank you I don't think the seller even knew the front grill was removable. It is a beautiful little oak sub otherwise... Once up and running, it is going to fit in nicely. Just hope the amp is OK (my luck , LOL)

Grateful to be a part of this lil' Family

Billy, that is very nice of you. How much including shipping? YAY

what about this one? http://www.ebay.com/itm/NEW-8-Subwoofer-Speaker-8-ohm-Home-Audio-Driver-bass-Woofer-Replacement-/160686163717?pt=US_Speaker_Parts_Components&hash=item2569a44705 not expensive, maybe worth a shot??? Suggestions?

Yes, the seller and I have come to agreement and case is closed. The seller really knew nothing of audio equipment and "lesson learned". She was very responsive and positive. New seller! So, now I have an SW-8 with out a driver. Help This sub is for a small, side system I have set up for morning radio programming. Thanks

Bought an SW-8 II sub on eBay. It arrived with out a woofer/driver. Suggestions welcome, please... Thank you

If those were in my area, I would be posting pics of a new acquisition !!! -not sure what I'd do with them however

my disorder allows me to switch and play with amps and pre's... LOL - now must try RC-1070. It is just so beautiful and simple

...and some baby Klipsch for Grandma

Jason, that would be OK but the micro system would benefit us due to the receiver for morning radio shows. Double duty if you will. I stream radio programming and would prefer to just have one small dedicated unit for this purpose (i.e. no amplifiers/processor/comp/etc) Plus, I truly dislike TV
