  1. Take a look at these....the RoomLens http://www.roomlens.com/ . I just got threee and what a difference they made. The sound is now more balanced but also more imaged, deep. etc. They took away what I described as shrillness. I have no affilation with the company, just a satisfied coustomer.
  2. I've got my second sub on order but I've done something else that may surprise you. While looking into the possibility of room treatments, I ran across a product called "Argent Room Lens". I ended up ordering three after speaking with their designer. All I can say is "WOW!". These things have taken all shrillness out and also improved my sound in a lot of other ways. I was thinking about changing my RF3's for Linn Espeks, but now I'm having second thoughts. I would encourage anyone interested in serious audio to check out the Room Lens' web site. Here's the link http://www.roomlens.com/ . This is not hype. I would be interested to hear opinions of those that have used them.
  3. OK....I've thought about toeing the speakers out (or less in), using the equalizer, and simply turning the volume down. The worst problem occurs at very high volume. The reason I even listen that high to begin with is to feel the punch of the sub-woofer....not subtle. I've even considered getting a matching SVS sub so I would have the same sub-sonic impact at a lower volume. I know it sounds silly to get a second sub to tame treble, but in my case I think it may work. I would be interested in a link or explanation in how to treat a room for better sound. There has got to be something more subtle than hanging carpets all over the place (which won't happen here anyway). Thanks.
  4. I'm running RF3 II fronts, RC3 II center, and four RS3 II's for surrounds. The three fronts are passively bi-amped with a Parasound 1205 and the surrounds are straight amped. My sub is a SVS 20-39 PCi. I use a Sony DA5ES as a pre/pro. I have had problems with shrillness with the RS speakers. I like to feel (literally) my sub, so I listen at pretty high volumes. Anyone have any suggestions as to speaker placement, or other ideas, to take the high treble out a little and boost the mids to create a "warmer" sound? My room has tiled floors with a large throw rug, sheet rock walls, and several large openings.....not what I'd call the perfect sound room. Thanks for any suggestions.
  5. I have a Sony DA5ES receiver, RF3 fronts, RC3, and 4 RS3's for surrounds and an SVS 20-39 PCi sub. I'm looking at buying two Parasound 855a amps and using my DA5ES for a pre amp. I plan to passively biamp the 3 front speakers and run the 4 surrounds straight. Anyone have any thoughts or experience with passive biamping of Klipsch RS. How about anyone using a Parasound amp with the RS series...(particullarily with a DA5ES receiver)...is there a major change in the quality of sound? Thanks, Joe Barefoot
