T2K Posted April 10, 2002 Share Posted April 10, 2002 Really nice! Wondering if you've ever used another SS amp in your HT setup and if so,can you give us a comparo as to any differences in sound between the Outlaw and the possible other amp? How good a job do the RS-3's do for surround effects mounted on the rear wall?I'm thinking about trying my WDST surrrounds on my rear wall. What do you think of the sound using Corns only for surrounds and RS-3's only for surrounds as opposed to using both.If it matters,I personally prefer the both. And it looks good too, Shape.Thanks for posting the pics. Keith Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ShapeShifter Posted April 10, 2002 Author Share Posted April 10, 2002 Doug/rowooo/Voodoo chile, Thanks for viewing and your comments. I feel that my progression is a bit like eating an elephant, a bite at a time. Our love of Klipsch speakers is what makes it all worthwhile. Keith, Thanks to you also. The only other SS amp I've used is the NAD 2400THX amp that now powers my SVS in bridged mode. Both NAD products are comparable in the sound they produce. Have used early 90's Technics and Sony ProLogic receivers and much preferred the sound of the Technics to the Sony. The Sony was a harsher and brighter, must say it was an inexpensive model. I do like the combination of the NAD receiver with the Outlaw amp, very musical and realistic. The downside of the receiver is it's only 5.1, but will be hard to replace from a musical standpoint. The RS-3's do a really wonderful job of providing ambient sounds for HT, given my room restrictions, there just isn't enough space for additional full range speakers to adequately fill the void. Also, the cost for additional full range speakers is a major consideration too. So my compromise was to use the RS-3's. Being WDST speakers, they add those room filling ambient sounds to the rear seating area for HT. Having the rear Corns are a joy when I play 5 channel music and they do make a significant impact for HT. So due to my room and budget restrictions, full range and WDST are the best for my HT setup. Thanks again everyone. Wes ------------------ "KLIPSCH IS MUSIC"f> Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ShapeShifter Posted April 11, 2002 Author Share Posted April 11, 2002 Q-Man, Those wonderful K-77 tweeters of yours are in the rear 85 Cornwall I's with 1971 B Networks. They really made an improvement in the timbre and tone match to the fronts. Sure appreciate your selling to me! Tom, Our Quartets are alive and playing well, they're pulling duty in an upstairs bedroom with the Eico HF-81 and Tuner. You were the match maker and Quartet marriage yet lives! Jim, Hey bud! Thanks for the compliments. Glad to hear from you and hope all is well with you and the family. You know I've never cataloged the speakers and cost. Probably should as least for insurance purposes. Will do that and post in the future. The receiver in the 2 channel setup is an old Fisher 800B very early 60's vintage, had it completely rebuilt during the fall of last year. Enjoy those 4 Cornwalls and never sell them. James, Thanks for viewing and your comments. It's nice to be in a place where we have a common link, love and admiration for a hobby. More especially for Klipsch Speakersthe glue that binds us all!

Audible Nectar Posted April 11, 2002 Share Posted April 11, 2002 Your listening rooms prove that Klipsch can enhance the WAF. So who says you can't have a houseful of Klipsch without angering the wife? Those rooms look gorgeous - my wife gives them her stamp of approval Wonderful job, Wes! ------------------ First we Rock, then we Roll!

ShapeShifter Posted April 11, 2002 Author Share Posted April 11, 2002 dndphishin, Being a single guy, your wife's approval means is indeed a special compliment. I strived to integrate the speakers into a family home type setting. Didn't want it to look like I had a bachlors pad, as I'm well beyond those years. Jim, Oh yes, I do have the necessary coverage for audio as well as my firearms. Just don't have them on an all inclusive listing. Have individual documentation and prices in a firesafe. Need to input everything into a database or spreadsheet. Darn, looks like another thing to add to the do list! Enjoy your trip and best wishes to Bride and Groom. justin_tx_16, Nice site! Man, you're darn quick and very good too. You've got quite an eleborate setup. Take care all, Wes ------------------ "KLIPSCH IS MUSIC"f> Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
