First some clarifying info - I'm kinda a noob but set to buy some floor-standing speakers from the Reference line. Initially these speakers will be in my small living room and will be primarily used for music, but occasionally movies. I listen to everything in the spectrum between jazz and dance/techno (but not jazz & techno!). Eventually these will be moved to a larger 'study' room where I will continue my same listening habits while the kids take over the living room. The music is mostly played between a 4-7 volume, but is sometimes cranked up to 9 for those most memorable songs. I appreciate the full range of true, natural sound which is what led me to Klipsch (also listening to my buddy's RF-52s). Because of my listening habits it seems like the Heritage series is too 'loudspeaker-y' to me, while the RF-7s might be too harsh and tinny? I live in the middle of nowhere so listening room trials are kind of out of the question. Currently I have a mid-level Yamaha receiver & quality cables, though a receiver will likely be my next upgrade. As far as the Reference line or comparable goes - money is not an issue. So...
1) Are the RF-83s too big for me? Soundwise? Or can they produce enough of the needed punch (or even just low-end realism) at mid volume levels?
2) Or am I better off getting the RF-52s and one of the matching RF subs? I have a punchy Yamaha sub currently which may or may not be incorporated into the new system. Is this the better route to complement the RF-52's or are the RF-83s not only larger capacity but also all around 'better' speakers? Or does adding a sub 'ruin' the 2 channel experience?
3) What is the Klipsch return policy like? Say if I decide to return for RF-83s for 52s & a sub? Has anyone had a bad experience?
I hope this is enough pertinent info to go on. Thanks in advance for the responses. So far I've found this forum to be quite respectful, level-headed, and devoid of flamers - a rarity!
