    Should I?

    in General Klipsch Info

    Posted

    My local dealer Has RF3's for $649 a pair CDN. Not bad. However, when I saw them the cones were dented. My friend went there a while ago, and said they were fine.

    If I buy, I might not get warrenty papers. Does that mean Klipsch can't fix any problems?

    Thanks

    The new klipsch..

    Many here in the 2 ch. area don't like the new klipsch. If they old stuff was so good, why can't you buy it?

    Someone with Khorns, cornwalls, ext. Think you can say some of the good points to RB5's or RF3's? I would like to here em', and know what you would consider to get in the new klipsch line with a good amp.

    Sony Mini System

    in Home Theater

    Don't worry, Im young to!

    I also have a sony mini system. I didn't get surround sound, because with mass market junk like that, surround sound is BAD.

    If I were you, I would save. save, and save. Im in gr.10. I'v been saving for quite a while. (still need more, $1400 not enough) Amps in something like that are really bad. I baught RB5's and hooked them up for a couple days. Well, although it sounded better then the Bose 5.1, or even pro media, It wouln't cut it.

    The sony is allright. It is impressive for $400. Lots of bass with those, "dule hybrid woffer's" lol. Boomy mid bass, and rattling "sub" bass. But for that kind of money, and a ALL IN ONE system, for a kid, it's better then most.

    Remember, the amount on this forum with Khorns, is high. RF7's, cornwalls, RB5's rf3, synergy. They will look down on your set up, as would I.

    As long as you KNOW that it's not as good as Bryston/RB5 combo, your allright.

    I think your doing pretty good. DONT buy without researching first when you do upgrade...I once baught a nuance sub.

    PS. I would say you need a new TV with at LEAST an AV input.

    EAR!

    You said you would rather have a Servo 15 over a RSW 15. Right? Isn't there a really BIG price diffrence?

    I have heard people say the servo 15 MSRP $1500 CDN. Isn't the RSW 15 well over 3 grand?

    RF-3II is cheaper than RF-3???

    I have never been to a "tweeter". I know at the stores here, kids come threw and punch in cones, scratch stuff, and other such crap. RF3's are going for 650 CDN here!!!! ya, but the cones are GONE.

    My guess is that some one messed up the price tags. Anyway, down there in the sates, shouldn't the RF3II's go for 850, and the old ones for 800?

    I think it was a mistake

    I need some help with my KSW-12 please

    After you find the best placement, (there are lots of threds for that) Liston to music, (or movies with Quints) and play with the settings. With such small mains, try crossing the sub over at 80-85HZ? Make sure the gain is low enough that you don't get a really boomy sound. When subs like that are cut high, they tend to do that lots.

    As for the connection, monster is probibly right. Have you tried it yet?

    Klipsch RB-5

    Will the RB5 play loud? I baught them, and had them for a while. The were hooked up to a piece of garbag amp, and didn't sound to good. However, even though the amp was bad, they were one of the most dynamic speakers I have ever heard.

    This is very good for movies. The RF3's are louder, right? Is that cuz of they extra mid-bass driver?

    The driver looks very much like that of their car audio sub's. On their web site, their sub's look great for the money.

    However, according to review's of their home sub's, I can understand why it is for sale. It will probibly die right after you buy it. Audioreview.com had their top end sub, and it did poorly.

    The worst cd you ever heard...

    in General Klipsch Info

    I like the new metallica. S&M is probibly the best album. It has new and old. And sounds great to me.

    -the old metallica, I think that "Master of.p." rocks. However, I do not think metallica has lost anything. I love their new stuff. And there it varioty with their new CD's. "Carpe Diem Baby" VS "Nothing else matters" Both newer Metallica, very diffrent songs. Love em' both.

    --------------------

    Lincon park is the worst CD I'v heard. It's like the sound that you get when you tape a CD at to high of a recording level. Garbage!

    When will record companies start doing a good job? With things like SACD, shouldn't music be recorded awsome? AND re-recorded for SACD? (remastered) It makes me mad when I here stuff like the new Ozzy CD. Sounds bad!

    There should be a law or something!

    Thanks, Matthew

    Would it be a good idea to have a sealed subwoofer, with ported mains. (RF3, RB5, ect) Would it sound weird?

    THANKS,

    I have read that if you build your own sub, or buy a passive sub, (SVS) then you can use an old stero reciever/amp to power it. Is that true? What about crossover, or problems with frequency's to high for the driver? How could you control anything but volume?
