I have The Three Klipsch Bluetooth speaker to connect my Macbook, iPad, 2 iphones. All worked before. Now after month bluetooth does not work with any device...tried everything...I give up
Have you tried a factory reset?
-
Disconnect the power cable from the speaker and wall outlet
- Plug the power cable back into the wall outlet
-
Press and hold down the source select knob on top of the speaker
- While holding, plug the power cable into the back of the speaker
- The speaker has been reset

Hope I don't run into this problem. Bought a pair of the walnut sixes a little over a month ago and have loved how well they sound. I'll probably add a sub in as well....but don't really see the need to run out and get one right now. Anyways....impulses kicked in and I bought a set of the ebony ones as well....seeing as how these are on closeout for $500 everywhere. Figured I could always find a use for a second set.

They make a wireless sub.
Wireless is unnecessary for this application. No need to pay the premium there.

Those Sixes are very nice speakers, but they will benefit by adding a sub.
I probably will add one. Klipsch claims a frequency response down to 40hz...but I very much doubt that. I'll probably keep looking....as these will be specifically for music. Would really like something clean and punchy.

I have not heard the 10's, but I would guess that they would be very similar in sound quality as the 12's... just dialed back a bit. I did have the opportunity to hear a home theater that had two of the r-12sw's.... and for home theater they were okay. Unless you did a back to back comparison with a better sub, I could see where a lot of people would be okay with it. But for music I was not impressed. It seemed to lack definition and clean punch.
I guess I need to take a step back. I don't want to add a sub for the hell of it. I'll have to listen to the Sixes when they arrive and determine whether a sub is actually even necessary.

Does anyone have any opinions on the R-12SW compared to the R-100SW? I guess I can't tell what the difference is between the lines. For example...the R-12SW is $250 regular price compared with $500 for the R-120SW....but the specs appear to be the same. Reason why I ask is because the R-100SW is down to $200 from $400.
Just for reference.....I am going to be using it with a pair of The Sixes. Definitely lean rock with the music that I listen to....so a nice easy roll into mids of the Sixes would be nice. Also why I am wondering if the 10" would be a little more musical and less boomy.

After doing a bit more research on the topic.....and being directed back to this forum and topic from six years prior to this thread.....it looks like the K-137 probably IS the recommended replacement tweeter.
QuoteFor those of us that own RF 25's (Or have bought them used for a good deal with the tweeters fried, like me) Here are the pics of the old and new tweeters. Klipsch has realized that they messed up with their original tweeter selection and added a heafty heat sink on the new k-137 tweeters. They go for around $28 each, and are on a bout a 2 month back order (oops Klipsch, do you think you made these too fragile if everyone and their brother is burning them up?) I personally have never blown a speaker (other than a cheap woofer when doing a dj gig at block party that involved a whole bunch of cocktails) but when talking to the the folks at klipsch they seem to be replacing these left and right.
So, here are the pics of the old and new tweets for the rf-25'sThis refers to the RB-25 speakers rather than the RB-35, but they used the same model tweeter. So if anyone stumbles upon this thread in the future.....it appears that the K-130 was a mistake by Klipsch. Don't overthink the impendence rating. The K-137 is the correct replacement. And I'm finding that the K-137, while still available at some places, was discontinued and replaced by the K-138-O.

Looks like you can still get the k-137 as recommended earlier in this thread:
Yeah, I saw that. It didn't sound like there was a consensus on whether it's a good replacement or not, since it has an 8-ohm impendence compared to the originals 3-ohm impendence. And if it is going to cause a difference between the left and right if I simply replace the one....at that point I may just have to replace both. That kind of opens up the possibilities. Find something at 4-ohm that more closely matches the original impendence.
-
Rather than starting a new thread...I have the exact same issue as the OP. I've had these speakers lying around for almost ten years now and decided I could probably put together a decent two channel setup. Problem is that one of the tweeters is completely dead. Same 3-ohm, K130 tweeter. I've sent a message to Klipsch customer service to see if they have any ideas. Otherwise I will probably replace both with a matching pair of low impendence tweeters.
Any guidance would be appreciated.
La Scalas at last!

For those with knowledge of the La Scala speakers....I'm looking at a pair that have had all components replaced with Crite components (speakers,crossovers). How does this compare to the original components?
