Hi all, longtime lurker. So I ordered the Klipsch Ultra2 THX package based on impressive reviews and theater builds on AVS, such as Sandman's. (This package - http://www.klipsch.com/thx-ultra2-home-theater-system)
I emailed somebody who's a pro installer and he sent this back:
I had never heard anything like this on AVS or elsewhere. I tried googling, but all I could find was the opposite: people impressed by build quality, excellent timbre matching, and evenness of integration.
So I wrote him back and basically said, "Are we talking about the same speakers?" He wrote:
Now, of course, I'm worried about my purchase.
Has anyone ever experienced anything like this? I feel like I'm in a parallel universe. Not sure how a $13,000 MSRP classifies as "you get what you pay for".
