Just picked up a pair of RS-3IIs to replace my RC-3 for Rear Surround and I am looking to sell my RC-3, you guys get first dibs. It's around 4 years old, it's served me as my main center and my rear surround (back). It's in excellent shape. Drivers are mint, not a dent, grill is 100%, binding posts are a-ok. There are some light scratches on the left hand side of the speaker, cosmetic only and a small bit of the vinyl missing on the same side at one of the corners (just the covering, not a 'chip'). Shipped in original packaging. http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v472/InfernalMachine/l_driver.jpg http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v472/InfernalMachine/l_close.jpg http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v472/InfernalMachine/horn.jpg http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v472/InfernalMachine/r_driver.jpg http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v472/InfernalMachine/r_close.jpg http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v472/InfernalMachine/grill.jpg http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v472/InfernalMachine/l_side.jpg $200.00US + Shipping costs (OBO)!

I'm looking to round out my 7.1 setup by replacing my RC3 (center back) with 2 RS-3/RS3II. My question is, I'm starting to mix and match it seems, Mains: RF3 Center: RC3II (Second center purchased) Side Surrounds: RS3 Center Back: RC3 (first center purchased) I didn't notice much of a difference when I added the RC3II to the front sound stage, but I'm concerned I may be 'breaking' the sound fields with mixing of the two types. In addition, ideally the surrounds are all the same speaker type, but would adding another RC3 to the rear be that much worse than adding two RS3/IIs back there? Or even another set of RF3s? Also, with the the new naming of the reference series (new additions) are the RF25s or 35s closer to the 'old' RF/RFII series?

Well I've had the SVS 20-39PC+ up and running for 2 days now and WOW (a co-worker commented on how you could wear it as a barrel I'm having some calibration issues though. I'm running Klipsch RF-3s, RS-3s, RC-3II with an Outlaw 1050. I've set all speakers to small, LFE 'on', -15db sub trim on the Outlaw, Outlaw crossover set to 60Mhz, SVS 20-39PC+ corner loaded, SVS crossover disabled (set at 120Mhz), SVS phase at 180 (though I did not hear much of a difference with any setting), Gain is a tad more than half, calibrated via VE/Avia (back and forth) and a RatShack SPL. There is still BIG bass to be had, I'm just not finding the happy 'blend'. Would setting the outlaw crossover to 80 yield much difference? (I'm not sure that my RF-3s would be better off passing that off to the SVS or not). It feels like I have the Outlaw Sub trim really low, the lowest it can go, this a good thing or a bad thing? Better to have the Sub do it all or turn the sub down and boost the Amp feed a bit? I also noted a good amount of grounding hum (maybe?) with the SVS crossover disabled (goes away when set to enabled). Not hum from across the room, just when it's quiet, you can hear it when you are a few feet from it.

I've got the RF-3s, RC-3, RS-3s and a KSW-12 (and a RC-3 II (they sent me the wrong one coming so I can move the RC-3 to the rear surround of my Putlaw 1050). Get the KSW12 or better yet get the new Reference series Sub when they come out!

Ack! I just ordered and RC-3 (not II) and I was sent the new RC-3 II as a 'gift' due to a 'mis-communication! Is this going to sound 'different' compared to my RF3/RS3s as far as timbre goes? The specs of the RC-3 II appear to be the same as the RC-3 except the RF-3 II has a Higher Frequency crossover @ 2100Hz compared to the RC-3s @ 1950Hz, not that much of a difference... This speaker was purchased for the rear surround position and I'm very worried that it will 'out perform' the 'older version' thereby sound a little off. If I keep it, I would obviously put the newer one as the main center and the old one as the read surround... Thoughts?
