I am on fire! I scored a pair of RB-75's ....

I think it will be a blast. I could not have, or would not have, taken the plunge without everyone's help. -

Here's a quick and dirty photo of the RB-75's that I was able to pick up today. So far very impressive. Sounds a little thicker and denser than the P17b and RP160M. I like 'em too. I'll have to see how each stacks up long term. -
Palladium P17-b - Holy cr@p, blown away once again ......
joeinid replied to joeinid's topic in 2-Channel Home Audio
Thanks Scrappydue, I was EXTREMELY lucky with the purchases. basically 1/2 price on the P17-b's is a steal. I am very happy and so surprised how room filling they sound. Just a wonderful immersive sound and definitely a smoother tweeter. I love my Klipsch. -
No truer words have been said!

Congratulations Ric, So happy for you. These are amazing speakers and glad you finally took the plunge.

Palladium P17-b - Holy cr@p, blown away once again ......
joeinid replied to joeinid's topic in 2-Channel Home Audio
Thank you. 2 channel music listening only. I'm not much of an HT guy. I love to have music playing almost all the time. Hi Bill, I'm still committed to the Yamaha A-S3000 and want it badly. I just saw a review of some B&W speakers and wouldn't you know it, the A-S3000 and companion CD player was driving them. I nearly fell on the floor. The reviewer loved the combination and in particular, the Yamaha. That sealed it for me. I hope to order in the next month or two. -

Thank you so much guys. I am in complete awe of what I am hearing. I had them hooked up to my Bryston 28bsst2 amps for the day and now switched to a pair of McIntosh MC75 reissue amps. I freaking love these speakers. -
Palladium P17-b - Holy cr@p, blown away once again ......
joeinid replied to joeinid's topic in 2-Channel Home Audio
I am sorry to say, but the P17-b are way better. The RP160M hold their own and are amazing for $440 (current special) but the sound stage size, depth, width, height and overall quality of the Palladium is head and shoulders above. As it should be. I never would have guessed that these speakers would deliver this kind of sound. Breathtaking. -
I wasn't supposed to see these until Tuesday, next week but, I had them held for pick up and as luck would have it. I received a phone call to come get them. I couldn't wait. Hooked them up on the same stands that I have, just to get them cooking. OMG! These are some serious speakers. Tremendous in the room presence, they play way bigger and go lower than their size/specs would suggest. I am in complete awe once again. I just can not believe it. Please, please, please do not mention the floor standing P39-F speakers to me, I'll die.

What a great way to start a new year! Klipsch RP-160M's ....
joeinid replied to joeinid's topic in 2-Channel Home Audio
Based on what I'm hearing with these RP160M's, I believe the 150's will be awesome, especially as your computer speakers. I'm sure choice of amp will make or break the sound. -

Guys, I am blown away by how amazing these little speakers sound. I'm giddy. I'm embarrassed to count up some of the money that I p*ssed away thinking I'm buying "the best". Here right in front of my face are a stellar pair of Klipsch speakers. If this is a dream, I don't want to wake up. -

What's the general consensus on toe in? Do you run your speakers straight ahead or with a little bit of toe in? I think mine sound a little better almost perfectly straight ahead...... -

I have not been this excited/happy since getting back into Klipsch. I'd like to thank everyone for the encouragement. I've wanted Jubilees forever, but not sure I can make them happen. These bookshelves have been supremely satisfying. -

I think so. I'll be having fun rotating through them and hearing what differences exist between them. It will be a blast. -

Wise words, thank you so much. -
I think Spotify is 320 kbps. It's not perfect but sounds really, really good. With a nice, warm dac will sound awesome.
