For all you folks who are concerned with power you can use a 300 watt amp on this all day long if played within reason. But a general rule of thumb is actually to pair a speaker with 150 percent of its rms rating for best performance it does this by having greater control of the driver, reducing distortion, and preventing clipping in your amp by having the power to drive your speakers as loud or hard as you want. These would do great with 125-150 watts per channel. My 105 watt per channel denon was on the low end of what was acceptable, it lacked bass authority, I’d say 125-140w is the lowest power that will drive the rp600m well to reference levels.

I have had a pair of rf-7 and they are some of the worst sounding speakers I’ve owned. There is a distinct point of origin from the midrange and less so with the highs. Danny explains their shortcomings very well here. some folks just don’t get that speaker manufactures won’t put in the time to design a speaker as good as it could be made or with high quality parts until you get into the several thousand dollar mark. If you want to avoid this, and yet still get a large portion of that quality there is no reason you can’t open this little speaker up and make some changes. Very easy, fun and a learning experience. Best of all the end result is your proud of what you have created. I have a pretty little sleeper klipsch rp600m that smoke nearly anybody else’s out there. can’t recommend the work, knowledge and offerings of gr research enough!

Well I just ordered some klipsch rp600m’s and a denon receiver. Two of the most obvious and least invasive improvements I noticed could be tackled for under $100, are the jumper bars and the sound dampening of the cabinet. I ordered some premium copper jumpers spades to bananas and some no rez from Danny’s website from research, if I remember I’ll post any difference I notice, albeit I don’t expect to put a lot of listening time in on these Pre installation of the no rez. I’m sure by now (6 months later) you’ve come to the conclusion you wanted, but maybe it can help others. I didn’t feel like learning how to build a crossover network or buy the tools needed when I’ve never even heard a stock rp600m yet. Best wishes.
