Dennie Posted April 28, 2011 Share Posted April 28, 2011 Well, Congratulations! [<)] This is going to be the longest weekend of your life! If you need us, we'll be here for you. In the mean time I find it helpful to keep busy. If you've got some "small Jobs" around the house that you've been putting off, like re-roofing, digging the hole for a swimming pool, re-sheetrocking the HT, painting the whole interior/exterior of your house, these are the things that take your mind off of WAITING FOR YOUR NEW SPEAKERS!! [<)] LOL Keep us posted, Dennie [] Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cubdog Posted April 29, 2011 Author Share Posted April 29, 2011 A HLLY Tamp-300 tripath amp. It sounds great with my CF3s and I'm hoping the synergy will be just as good with the RF 7s. cubdog Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
orrb_05 Posted April 29, 2011 Share Posted April 29, 2011 Just got mine today, they are replacing a pair of Classic RF-7s. They sound fantastic!! Debating on the RC-64II and a sub, or stick with 2ch and upgrade my amp and pream. Congrats... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I thought they sounded way different but I heard them in a store not at home although they were side by side so still a good comparison. To me they sounded bigger cleaner and harder to localize.

cubdog Posted May 1, 2011 Author Share Posted May 1, 2011 Now I'm getting impatient. There's just something about getting new speakers. cubdog Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dennie Posted May 1, 2011 Share Posted May 1, 2011 Now I'm getting impatient. There's just something about getting new speakers. cubdog That's funny, 'cause I was just thinking about you. See, it is now time to repave the driveway, or repaint the house. Tic Toc, tic toc, tic toc!!! [O] LOL Hang in there Cubdog, it will be Monday before you know it!

cubdog Posted May 2, 2011 Author Share Posted May 2, 2011 Well, I don't have them yet. I bought them from a seller located a couple hundred miles north of me. He thought they would arrive today. I called the freight line and they told me the speakers are in Chicago. Next, they will drive right by me on their way to the Quad Cities. Then they will turn around and come back east to Oregon Il. A three hour drive turns into a 6 day odyssey. Thank God shipping was free. cubdog Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dennie Posted May 2, 2011 Share Posted May 2, 2011 Darn it!! I hate it when that happens. Hang in there Cubdog, they'll be worth the wait!!! Thanks for the update, Dennie Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
moray james Posted May 3, 2011 Share Posted May 3, 2011 I guess that it feels like Christmas has been delayed but they will arrive soon. In the mean time can you tell me about your CF-3's and what you think of them especially the mid and top end from those big horns? I can't find a pair to listen to so your impressions are as close as I will get for some time. Thanks and best regards Moray James. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cubdog Posted May 3, 2011 Author Share Posted May 3, 2011 The speakers will arrive tomorrow afternoon! cubdog Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cubdog Posted May 3, 2011 Author Share Posted May 3, 2011 Love my CF3s,[version 2],. I have 4 of them in my HT setup with a KV4. I have also used a single pair for 2 channel listening. I listen primarily to jazz, lots of piano and saxophone. Sometimes at higher volumes these instruments can sound harsh on any system. The CF3s are very tame in this regard much more so than the Cornwalls they repaced. I would love to hear some version 1s of either the 3 or 4s. If I don't like the 7s that is still an option. cubdog Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
