I look forward to your review Scrappy, after some burn in time of course. I have an acquaintance that was directed by a Klipsch guy at the CES show that actually steered him away from the Forte III's, which I found kind of odd. He settled instead on La Scala II's and Cornwall III's.
Crappy guy to not trying o be pushing new product, but probably a good salesman considering instead of selling 3600$ worth of speakers he sold 12,000$ worth of speakers.

Did you warn your neighbors?
Nah. I live in a bomb shelter house pretty much. If my cinema gear and 8 subs haven't got me in trouble yet, these new forte aren't going to get me in trouble.

What do you have to compare them to?

I'd sent that back for a fu refund. Then contact a real dealer like @MetropolisLakeOutfitters And get one shipped to you on a pallet like something that larger should be shipped on. Then it will show up PERFECT

Lol bringing threads back from the dead

Ugh so much bad advice being given. The 62ii is absolutely NOT timbre matched to the RP line. Not even close. The RP line is MUCH more laid back. If you get the 260's go with the 450c. Buy once cry once. It's a great combo. Contact @MetropolisLakeOutfitters For good deals. He's a member and dealer. Stand up guy
-
The 160's are as big as it gets for bookshelves. So naturally that's what you should go with. Can I ask why you got the ca and not just the regular 450c? You know none of the bookshelves will match the finish right? The ca is veneer. Everything else is vinyl wrapped at much different looking.

Man you are quite the drive. 14+ hours one way.

Man sweet stuff for sale. Wanted a pair of the natural palladium bookshelves for a long time now. Wish I had a grabbed a set when they cleaned them out. Good luck with sale.

Get the RC- 64ll.....thank me later.
Sure if he decides to eventually upgrade all his other speakers too. Otherwise the 64ii wouldn't be worth the money. 62ii would be a better buy imo if your not gonna get the 7ii's down the road.
-
You bought this yesterday and now you're selling? Why not just return it?
-
And if you're really into aesthetics they are building a new veneers matching sub to match the 7ii's
-
I'd say the 3's are gonna be a tad more laid back sounding. I certainly like the look of them better. I'm about the only one though I think. Everyone else likes the veneer front. I'd agree on black but I don't like cherry veneer on the front with copper woofers. The new ones are a nice contrast and the lean back and plinth is so much classier looking
-
Let's bump this back up and see if anyone has any new pics?
-
If you go pro you want the 396. The driver is uses on the horn is the magic. Don't skimp. Can you not do a shallow false wall?

Get the 240 for surrounds if they are gonna be on your sides. Or the 150's if they are gonna be behind you.
Get the 450c for center. Don't skimp. This is the most important speaker. Sub is number 2. Get with @MetropolisLakeOutfitters For a sweet deal on a center and surrounds. He might even cut you better deals if you bundle with a sub.

The bookshelvesnwill do just fine in a room that size. I'd put the extra money towards some super cool stands.
