Matthews Posted January 23, 2010 Share Posted January 23, 2010 Hello there friends, I am excited about interacting with some fellow Klipschers. I made a bit of a rocky start here and am looking forward to some growth. Anyhow, my very first pair of Klipsch were a pair of RB-61's. From that very moment I was absolutely in love with what I had discovered. I had never heard such wonderful sound come from such a small source. At that time I was powering with a Onkyo do it all reciever. I have graduated a bit since then. They had a pair of RF-7's in the showroom of my local audio shop (D&M Sound). I threw in some Deep Purple and it was all over. Had to have them... Next, the Onkyo had to go. Graduated again to an Adcom 5400 amp and 502 controller. WOW!!! And so my adventure continues. Last night I pick up a vintage Yamaha M-80 on e-bay, pristine condition (well, we will see). All the reviews I have read are saying good things about the M-80. So now, it is going to be a long 10 days or so waiting for my new toy to arrive. Again, thanks for being here. Klipsch Newbee, Matt Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dennie Posted January 23, 2010 Share Posted January 23, 2010 Hey Matt, Welcome Again! We really are glad you're here, as you've read. Man, this is going to be the longest 10 days of your life!!!! [:S] I suggest that you pick out some of your favorite music and give it a serious listening to! Get to know it intimately, play it again and again! Then when the "Yami" get's here. You will hear every nuance that you missed with the old gear!! [] I've heard good things about it also. [Y] Now, moments of anxiety and dizziness are normal through this 10 day period. We will be here for you! [{] Drink plenty of liquids and don't forget to eat! LOL Log on when you need us.....we'll leave a light on for you![] Dennie Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

thebes Posted January 24, 2010 Share Posted January 24, 2010 All right bub, what's all these topics you're starting which are pushing my cable thread down the page. What's your view on cables and you'd better get it right. Grumpy Thebes Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Matthews Posted January 24, 2010 Author Share Posted January 24, 2010 Hello there Grumpy! my view on cables? Well, I would have to say I prefer to use a cable as opposed to chains. A chain can be very cumbersome and difficult to operated in extreme conditions. Also, a cable seems to be a little more forgiving. I suppose it just depends on what you are trying to move...

33RPM Posted January 24, 2010 Share Posted January 24, 2010 Welcome to the Klipsch family, but sorry for your wallet! This board has already cost me quite a chunk of change, to say nothing of what Bottlehead has gotten from me this last year. Forum members can be quite convincing, so be wary!
