CECAA850 Posted February 12, 2010 Share Posted February 12, 2010 Again, my point which you and others may or may not agree to. I get tired of this line is better than that line, etc. etc. They're all made with different design goals. You may like the sound of this line over that line but it doesn't necessarily make it better, because I might feel just the opposite. I really like listening to the different lines and embrace their strengths and weaknesses. I think if more people owned, or have heard multiple lines then the debates may ebb slightly. I don't have a favorite line, I have a favorite manufacturer. Bottom line is BUY MORE KLIPSCH SPEAKERS. Carl Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mr. RF62 Posted February 12, 2010 Share Posted February 12, 2010 Ah well, you know, us young Reference people could always resort to the - who can hear higher frequencies - debate. Old vs. Young. Just kidding. I know I'll have my turn. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I am pro / for Klipsch. I bought my parents reference because there is no way my mom woul put up with a bulky speaker in her home, and they do well for surround sound yet are still very qualified for music. just not best IMHO Roger Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
White_Hawk Posted February 12, 2010 Share Posted February 12, 2010 Hahaha - I started out with promedia ultras, then I found some used RF-83s locally - wasn't that a nice change? =D Then I picked up a pair of old Heresy IIs - and MAN are they SMOOTH... The midrange is beautiful. Currently working on restoring an old beat up pair of the original Heresy... I listen to my reference for HT and my heritage for music (unless I'm too lazy to hook them up... I need an A/B configuration here). I don't know if I'll ever pick just one! Maybe Pallidiums would settle that - or would Jubs be the way to go =) I guess I'll never know until I own them all. And of course I have my submersive holding the lower end of things with whichever I choose for my mains. =D Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

falcon20x Posted February 14, 2010 Share Posted February 14, 2010 Hmmm...... or should it be quality over quantity. Either way I got size, quality and quantity (check pics in my profile) so the short answer is no I'm not, or m'I ? We are still talking about speakers right?

dollar bill Posted February 14, 2010 Share Posted February 14, 2010 This argument is easy to solve. Just drop any Heritage or Pro line on any Reference and then repeat the other way around. The survivor wins.[] Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Roger I figure less than a foot and theres not piece of MDF that would survive even a KP 201 being bounced off it.LOL And the MDF that did survive would have the drivers shear off.[] Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Coytee Posted February 14, 2010 Share Posted February 14, 2010 Only a Reference guy would post something like that. A heritage owner would never joke about his speakers.

BLSamuel Posted February 14, 2010 Share Posted February 14, 2010 Hey. All Klipsch sound great. Even the lowly Synergy sounds really good. I think a few have even posted they liked the sound of some Synergy better than some Reference. But from a shear volume of sound acoustical output... the Pro wins hands down. The Reference will most likely get stomped by the Heritage - maybe with enough kilowatts the Reference might hold their own before voice coils start going up in smoke (please don't abuse your speakers like that) The Heritage will get stomped by the Pro The Headphones get stomped by all of the above - or if you play the stick 'em in your ears Klipsch that loud you probably can't hear well enough anymore to care. Please gentlemen, don't drop Klipsch speakers on other Klipsch speakers. Not so sure a Reference box could hold up to a motengator balanced on top.... much less being dropped on it. If you want to crush something just set a Reference or Heritage box on one of Coytee's favorite little (rhymes with hose) cube or plastic CD/radio that allegedly sounds better than big speakers and a whole rack of components ... what are they comparing 'em with - white van speakers? (Rhymes with hose) might do pretty well in that comparison. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
