  1. Personally I'm a big Biamp fan.  With the release of their Tesira line a few years ago it means that a lot of Nexia and Audia systems are being pulled out and replaced.  Because of that a LOT of Nexias and Audias are showing up on eBay for less than $100.  Biamp is super easy to program and set up and I would be glad to help with anyone who needs some assistance.  

     

    I also would be glad to build the basic "Roy approved" settings into both a Nexia file and Audia file if someone could give me the settings in order to create the files.

     

    I'm not actively trying to sell them, but I have TWO Biamp Nexia units that I'm not using right now.  I have thought about some potential uses, but for now they are just sitting on the shelf.

  2. I don't think this is alert worthy. It's just a guy trying to sell a pair of speakers. Now if they were listed for $500 instead of $2500 at something to post an alert about. The price is pretty much right on or maybe even a little bit high for what they are.

     

    To me an alert is saying you better drop everything you're doing if you're anywhere near these and rush immediately to buy them.

  3. I still have them. They need a little bit of work done to make them ready to sell but all of the drivers are in good condition. There's just a few cosmetic things on the cabinets that I need to touch up

    I've owned the larger RB-35's but have not heard the RB-25's.  They likely would make great computer speakers.  I've always felt just about any Klipsch speaker for $100 is worth it.

    I'm using KSB1.1s right now, so I think this would be a nice upgrade and the price isn't too bad.

    They look like an evolution of the KPT-100's with an upgraded titanium tweeter diaphragm.  I noticed that the upper frequency cut off is 17k which means they probably have the x-curve built into the crossovers to protect them.  it can probably be defeated but someone like Bob or Dean would have to look at the schematic to tell you how.

    They are THX certified, so the response curve and frequency response corresponds to the THX requirements.  Yes you CAN defeat the crossover and other things that give it the unique frequency response, but it wouldn't be a THX surround speaker at that point.  To be politically correct, Klipsch marketing calls it "controlled coverage and standard SMPTE/ISO 2696 X-curve de-emphasis"....lol.

    I'm not familiar enough to know what those are, Pat.  The CL link you posted 10 minutes ago is already dead.

    I don't know if you should keep them, but they sure look like a step up from consumer grade speakers.  I say let your ears be your guide.

    The picture of the speaker was in my post.  The model number was in the subject of the main post (Klipsch KPT-8001-T Cinema Surround Speakers)

    I got these.  They actually had FOUR of them so I got all four!  I'm debating whether I should use them and sell my other surrounds (pair of S-2 surrounds and pair of S-10s) or try to sell them and keep my current surrounds.  I have a feeling these would blend better with the LaScalas so I'm leaning toward keeping them unless someone else wants them bad enough to make me an offer I can't refuse.

    Just tell her it's shelves for knit knacks and collectibles.

     

    The problem was that with the layout of our bedroom we couldn't open/close the door to the bedroom so I had to put the Cornwall in FRONT of the end of the dresser.  She didn't like that.  We ended up moving to a new house this summer that has a wider wall and now I have Forte's.  I wish I had kept the Cornwalls, but I didn't have much choice at the time.

    Good luck! I am only looking for one speaker to use as a center channel, I will let you know if I find anything, I think I have a good lead.

    I think I have the answer for you. Message me and I'll tell you what I have.
