  1. The CT120 (imho) is much smoother and easier to listen to than the stock tweet OR the CT125
  2. Went to my local northern CA and the closest store was San Diego with a pair. Then the salesperson tries to upsell me a RF7iii at regular prices! Haha
  3. Well, the RF 7ii is a generation old seeing as the iii have been out quite a while now. This is just Frys cleaning their house. Klipsch and other business are probably just fine with holding on to old stock and is why they arent lowering their prices....
  4. Limit 2 person but i will try to work something out
  5. My local says should be there. Ill be there at 745 banging on the doors

  7. I've listened to B&W and Klipsch. I felt the B&W was silky smooth and delicate but lacking in overall clarity and openness... It was like taking a LaScala and throwing a heavy blanket over it. YMMV
  8. Where are you located and would you take a cash offer?

    KLF 30

    reno.craigslist.org/ele/d/klipsck-klf-30/6764520769.html Seems a little overpriced? I think id make the drive if they were under 1k....
  10. You realize this is a support forum for people with those same issues???

    Incredible deal for someone. GLWYS
  12. That's the compromise you get when using the LaScala ect for HT...you do leave performance on the table in order to match with the other speakers. That being said, your HT is only as strong as the weakest speaker....The RF7 will have to get padded down as well....and the other issue is that if you are going to do stereo listening as well then you want those heritage speakers there for that vs RF....
  13. Have tried phantom center many times, it's just not good....
  14. I have integrated La Scallas, Belles, and Forte III in HT applications flawlessly. And I would second the notion that of you will be using a subwoofer then the Forte III is the way to go as it has a horn tweet and mid which means more clarity....

  17. And as a side note on Marantz. I get the best quality with digital files using HEOS app and streaming directly from my NAS or from Tidal. I found when streaming from my NVIDIA shield to the Marantz the sound is not quite as good....Guess I need to get a dedicated digital streamer....
  18. Straight Audyssey with no other "enhancements" other than an occassional tone control with specific recordings. I played Yessss yesterday on vinyl "Starship Trooper" and it was awesome. Immediately played it again on Tidal and it was a whole new (way better) experience. I got into Klipsch for the retro, analog, simplistic stereo listening, but moved on to modern digital with Klipsch for the clean pure beautiful sound that Klipsch can truly make.
  19. I second that Audyssey ON makes my music sound significantly better with ZERO added noise. But that is just for ME.
  20. Your VZ will use whichever it is receiving. It defaults to HDR10 until/unless it gets Dolby.
  21. Monoprice monolith amps. They now have xlr connections. Basically a rebadged ATI for way less.
  22. I see what you did there 😁 But I take issue with your choice of comparisons.... if you look at Audysee adjustments and TV or AVR video adjustments just because the manufacture implements them doesn't autmatically mean they work the way they are intended to (ie motion handling actually causing more judder ect) And dynamic volume control compressing the music as to make it unenjoyable. The same goes with dynamic contrast, if you dont notice it then good for you, but for me it IS noticable and takes away from the experience. Comparing it to an automobile changing speeds is over simplification at best....
  23. Adjustable on the fly readings are always noticeable and not good in my opinion. Audio AND video that is adjusted on the fly takes away from the immersion when you can see/hear it.... Apologize for my grammar lots of kirkland scotch
  24. The model of Q series is VERY important. The Q6 (which seems to be all the rage for SC, BB, and Costco) to put on sale is edge lit led. The Q8 is the FALD and makes a HUGE difference. I got the 65" Q8 at RC Wiley Preblack friday for 2k even. Havent seen it less than 2250 anywhere...
