[Klipsch RP-600M II]

Seems like you have to be quick to order them, I have a pair myself and am super enjoying them!

 

[Introduction from the New Reference Series Speakers at CES 2022]

I am setting up an atmos surround sound system and was pretty much set for left and right fronts the RP-8000f and now I see the new Reference R-800f, is this different and better than the RP-8000f’s and if so what are the differences? Is it too early to ask for this information now?  Or are the RP-8000f’s being phased out for the Reference R-800f’s?

Thanks for any help!

When do these come out?

 

[WTB: 7591 Tubes]

Doug’s Tubes is a good place to try. Just Google.

 

[Marantz Model 30 / SACD 30n]

The 30 has good specs but with Cornwall IV’s I would have gone with a tube amp. But that’s just me.

 

 

[New integrated amp for RP-600M speakers?]

Melo,  I like H/K but the TV doesn't have RCA connectors  and willand, that Yamaha is with tax at $600 and budget is $500 plus it's reconditioned and I don't need the extra 10 watts - 40 to 60 watts should be fine with these speakers.  I understand the NAD-C316 BEE is a very nice clean sounding amp (audiophile quality)  Does anyone have experience with NAD's or does the Yamaha A-S301 best it for quality sound? Or is Denon better than Yamaha? 

[New integrated amp for RP-600M speakers?]

Hey guys,  just picked up a pair of RP 600M Gloss Black speakers (Wife wanted that finish) and they are going in a living room, soon to be built and they will be putting out sound from a 70" Samsung tv and also music from a Bluesound Vault 2 sound system. I already have a few tube amps for other places in the soon to built house and for my wife solid state is what I'm looking for in the the living room. For spending under $500 (tight budget)  I find my choices for a fine sounding amp to be:  1) Nad D3020 V2

                                                                                                                                                                                                                           2) Denon PMA 600NE

                                                                                                                                                                                                                           3) Yamaha A-S301 BL

                                                                                                                                                                                                                           4) Nad-C316 BEE

I don't have much knowledge on SS amps and I've heard Yamaha is more tube like in sound than Denon, or is it the other way around?  And know next to nothing of Nad but it has some good reviews, and maybe someone knows something better than these I've picked?  Oh also the living room is 17 feet on the speaker wall and goes back about 40 feet to the kitchen.  No subwoofer output necessary. If it comes with it, fine.

Any help would be super appreciated

Thank you all, I'll check out the RB-75's now!!!

[RB-81 vs. RP-600M Help for 2 way listening.]

Has anyone listened to a RB-81?  With all the hoopla over the RP-600M I would think the RB-81 is the better, deeper, richer sounding speaker.  Or maybe the crossover in the RP-600M is more sophisticated and put out better sound?

[RB-81 vs. RP-600M Help for 2 way listening.]

I was wondering are the RB-81 ll's a slight improvement over the RP-600M's or a whole other dimension for overall sound? Not much of a price difference for the bigger woofer I see.

 

Thanks for any help,

Number 6, the Prisoner - from the 1968 series "The Prisoner".  Incredibly smart lad.

[Jokes?]

Love that Bob!

[Using a Turntable]

It's possible you don't have enough output from your cartridge, that was my problem with my amp which has a phono preamp. You may need to go with a higher output cartridge.

[High Voltages and Tube Amps]

You might want to consult with a certain Doctor.................I believe his name is Frankenstein - either that or a Staff Sgt that's in charge of launching ICBM's.

[High Voltages and Tube Amps]

I was taught in the Air Force Academy on electronics it's not the voltage but amps that kill you - even a tenth of an amp (0.10 amps!).

 

 

[Which McIntosh with Cornwall IV's]

MC240 is what I would go with, with what I have heard.

[Trigger Pulled]

I can almost promise you that you will get them before Christmas this year.

[RP8000F]

Where are you located?

[WTB Cornscala crossovers]

It says message sent. but I can't find it.

 

Steve

[WTB Cornscala crossovers]

Still looking for Cornscala crossovers? I have a slightly used pair in great condition (my back ups, slightly used means I tested them out in the speaker to make sure they work) that I don't need anymore. Let me know if interested.  Cornscala's ROCK!

[Cornwall III with Bryston]

Your Bryston amp puts out what, 300 watts of power?  My HH Scott 299C puts out 30 watts per channel and it could make your ears bleed with Cornwalls at the 7 position on the volume knob. But that's tubes for you!

[Four Letter Clown Car or Not?]

I'll stick with my Packard, No tickets for meeeeee!

[Sherwood S5000 Question]

I would think setting it to stereo would be correct, but I'm wondering how it sounds, really?

[Inherited Klipschorn Speakers]

Your pick of a Rogue Audio Cronus Magnum II amp should be more than fine. An excellent pick in my opinion.
