A1UC Posted July 25, 2011 Share Posted July 25, 2011 Well I never got an answer from vanns on my damage , So I called again and they want a picture again , I guess the first guy I spoke dont work there no more . The guy at vanns said he would give me 159.00 credit back for the small nic on the top edge and some of the side edges need touch up like the black didnt stick to good , all pretty minor I told him I would do it for 250.00 he said he couldnt do that without an okay from higher up all he could do is 159.00 I dont know what to do Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A1UC Posted July 25, 2011 Share Posted July 25, 2011 Think I should ask for a new speaker or just take some credit ? Here is what the marks look like Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JasonJCarney Posted July 25, 2011 Share Posted July 25, 2011 use a wood touch up marker in black and take the credit (as long as its cash refund and not a store credit). You should be able to make that mark disaappear. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
willland Posted July 25, 2011 Share Posted July 25, 2011 Think I should ask for a new speaker or just take some credit ? Take the credit and have Vanns contact Klipsch to send you a small can of black lacquer so you can touch up yourself. Bill Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

pite Posted July 31, 2011 Share Posted July 31, 2011 Initially, I had set them up without spikes as I was changing the location every week to find out the best spot. Once finalized, I used supplied spikes on all four RF-7 IIs. Without spikes, it was little wobbly for couple of locations not being able to adjust, now with the spikes it's rock solid!

pite Posted July 31, 2011 Share Posted July 31, 2011 Few months ago, I got a chance to audition RF-7 II in Cherry color in A-Stock at a local deale. While, I wasn't aware of the issue with Cherry finish at that time, I did observe blotching at several places on both speakers (left and right). IMO the figure swirl grain makes it difficult to accept stain evenly, where the soft area soaks more stain while hard area soaks less causing blotching effect. Not sure, though if the blotched finish is part of 'B' stock or not. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SonicSeeker Posted July 31, 2011 Share Posted July 31, 2011 THIS IS TYPICAL SHIPPING DAMAGE TO THESE DO TO THE PACKAGING FOAM PUTTING PRESSURE ON THE GRILL CAUSING IT TO CHIP THE EDGES WHERE IT TOUCHES THE SPEAKER. KLIPSCH IS AWARE OF THIS. THE GRILLS TEND TO CRACK ALSO. IF YOUR NOT HAPPY WITH THERE OFFER MAKE THEM REPLACE IT. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JasonJCarney Posted August 1, 2011 Share Posted August 1, 2011 Mine came via R and L shippers. I'll put pics up tonight. When I can get to a laptop. Unless someone knows how to post pics from an iPhone? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SonicSeeker Posted August 1, 2011 Share Posted August 1, 2011 It seems like a really nice quality unit. I am pleased with it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JasonJCarney Posted August 1, 2011 Share Posted August 1, 2011 I mean it's hard to gauge what it's actually doing or if it's doing it well. I just grabbed 2 hdp 2500's for $100 on eBay. I need 13 plugs and at least it will give me some piece of mind and they do look cool. Monster also has a great reputation so that's good too.

SonicSeeker Posted August 1, 2011 Share Posted August 1, 2011 I agree, sometimes the new toy factor clouds our judgement as to what if any change it makes in quality of sound, but the safety and piece of mind alone are worth it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
