RockOn4Klipsch Posted September 14, 2010 Share Posted September 14, 2010 I love floorstanders all the way around, I've got RF 5's and RS 7s as surrounds and I haven't powered the RS since I've placed the RF 5's as surrounds. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The new Reference line subs are not out yet but I think will be soon. Excuse my error, I thought you were referring to the sw-350, I am not familiar with what the sw-311 is and it may indeed be part of the new reference line. Yes the sw-311 is the new coming Reference sub to pair with the new RF-7 II Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bheinz Posted October 31, 2010 Share Posted October 31, 2010 So I ended up getting the 5 channel rf II set from Audioholics thanks to a suggestion from another on this forum (thanks again[]). I opted to get the rf-7 II & rc-64 II in cherry which look amazing. The center channel is much bigger in person!! When I unpacked it I put it on end next to my rf-63 and can say that this sucker could almost pass for a tower speaker if I didn't know any better. I have about a week on these things and they seem to sound better every day that I listen to them. Tonight I did a crude A to B with the rf-7 II and the rf-63's. I am using a computer for source material so I can switch back and forth between the different speakers with a click. I am using a sunfire TGA-5200 for power. Please don't scrutinize too much for the lack of technical detail as this is just a 'from the gut' comparison with only a few different types of music. Prior to the rf-7 II's I have owned a pair of rf-63's for a couple months and have been extremely pleased with them. That said, by comparison to the rf-7 II's the rf-63's sound somewhat hollow like something is missing. I wouldn't say that the 7's reveal more detail in the music but they do seem much more accurate.As in the 7's are much closer to sounding like like live music and not a reproduction. The 7's also have incredible bass!! I have a few songs with slow/heavy baselines that I didn't really pay much attention before. At normal listening volumes with nominal bass settings I can feel almost as much as I can hear with these beaasties! I did buy the rs-62 II's (also much bigger in person) as part of the package deal but can't say much about them right now. Tonight I set up the rf-63's as rears and am very pleased with the sound of this setup. They are definitely awkward in the rear of the room so this may not be a permanent solution.. Maybe worth mentioning, In some of the software I have there is a sub calibration program that runs from some higher freq >200 hz (not sure where it starts) down through 10 hz. Just for s&g's I ran this late last week and there was one small band on the curve which seemed to have been a resonance spike and another (lower in the curve) where the speakers almost went SILENT before finishing out strong as expected to some lower frequency >10hz. BUT, I ran this test again tonight and have found that the resonant spike is much less prevalent and the dead spot has all but disappeared. My hope (and suspicion) is that after a few weeks of usage these will become completely flat (well... as far as my ear can tell anyway). I can say that I have NOT noticed either of these during normal listening. Long story short. These speakers sound amazing and I VERY pleased with this purchase.
