  1. I ran the RC64II with RF62II's and thought I didn't really notice much timbre difference. Once I got the RF7II's I understood exactly what timbre meant. Huge difference going from a 1 inch driver to a 1.75 inch. 

  2. ^^^ They think so, based on past experience; but, have not heard these SWs against each other.

    Correct me, if I'm wrong, gentlemen...

    Yep Sancho you are correct. I also want to say this is my opinion without actually listening to the new/older 15. Then again after listening to the new 15 I might just change my opinion. Like Sancho said I'm going off of past experiences. I have owned a few of the Klipsch older subs.

  3. but why you two?

    I haven't heard a good Klipsch sub yet. I'm not saying they are that bad but from what I've heard they can't hold their own to an SVS. Also take into account all the perks you get from SVS. Trade up policy, 45 day in home trial, etc...

  4.  

    Looking forward to your take on how they sound with khorns...

    Me too, but my initial impression is they will be great! They are much more spot on with my LaScalas than the SW-115's as far as bass hit is concerned. I had the SW-115's set at 40hz to extend the LaScalas. These seem to have much cleaner and tighter bass so they are currently at 80hz.

     

     

    that is precisely how I have my 115 set... very low @50hz and it works very well.

     

    lets see... dual PB2000's or dual R115's???

     

    I'd take the dual PB2000's

  5. Fwiw I ran a RC64II with my RF62II's and it sounded just fine. Little timbre mismatched but not that noticeable. Just turn the 64II down a bit and it does not overpower the mains. They played fine together. Once I did get my 7II's though it made perfect sense why they belong together in perfect harmony. 

  6. Correct!  Black.  I have the box to prove its not some mysterious B stock if anyone was worried about it.  Looks like I will be ordering BRAND NEW KLIPSCHORNS!!!  If I can get these sold.

    What will you be using for a center speaker after you get the mighty Klipschorns?

  7. So your room is small with a 5.1 setup and you only listen at around 90 db's? Why would you need an external amp? A flagship AVR with 140 w/ch will be more than sufficient with your room and listening levels. Save the extra money and buy another subwoofer IMO. The payoff meaning smile on your face with another sub rather than an amp will be much more satisfying.

  8. My room is 19 x 13 and I have my gear on the long wall because of the base board heaters. My RS62II's are right behind me up 18-24 inches. Is it the best spot? Of course not but it's all I have to work with until I buy a house and have a dedicated room. The 62II's are a bit overkill but just drop the volume down on them and everything still sounds good.
