scatsob Posted June 27, 2011 Share Posted June 27, 2011 I am looking for a set but have not even seen than anyone has ever had them in stock. Did Klipsch actually release these? These are the ones with the smooth grain dark cherry finish. If anyone has them please let me know. Pictures would be great too[]. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cornfedksboy Posted June 27, 2011 Share Posted June 27, 2011 They were limited release along with the Classic RF-7s, but not all of them come in the dark cherry. If you can find them they will likely be quite expensive. Happy hunting! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SuBXeRo Posted June 27, 2011 Share Posted June 27, 2011 i do know someone that owns them, they are keeping them though! They are fantastic speakers, i would highly recommend both the classic and regular rf-5's Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
scatsob Posted June 27, 2011 Author Share Posted June 27, 2011 Thanks for the responses. I will be picking up a pair of RF-5's locally next week but was doing research online and saw the classics and man they look good. I really like the finished wood look with the grill off.

SuBXeRo Posted June 27, 2011 Share Posted June 27, 2011 i just left az a few weeks ago, you can find amazing deals on the phx market, that is where i bought all of my gear and did all of my trading. it is very active and if you need other matching speakers like an rc-3 or rs-3 surrounds, they come up fairly often in the grand scheme of things Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
scatsob Posted June 27, 2011 Author Share Posted June 27, 2011 I actually need to update my profile. I am in California for the time being (NAVY). I already found a set of very good condition RF-5's here in LA and will be picking them up ($380 for the pair). When I lived in the bay area the getting was very good, similar to that in Phoenix. I will keep my eye out and maybe in my travels with the military I will find a pair. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JasonJCarney Posted June 29, 2011 Share Posted June 29, 2011 What is a good deal on rf3 's? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Moderators Youthman Posted June 30, 2011 Moderators Share Posted June 30, 2011 $500 or less would be a good deal. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SuBXeRo Posted June 30, 2011 Share Posted June 30, 2011 i got a pair of rf-3 II's for 250 but thats how i roll. Id say no more than 400 is reasonable....they were around 800-900 almost 10 years ago, even less is better IMO Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Moderators Youthman Posted June 30, 2011 Moderators Share Posted June 30, 2011 What is a good deal on rf3 's? My bad...I thought you were asking for RF-5 price. Yes, $300 - $400 tops for RF-3's. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
moray james Posted June 30, 2011 Share Posted June 30, 2011 If I am not mistaken the RF5 uses the same horn as that used in the RF7. Excellent choice and price. Enjoy. Best regards Moray James. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
StephenM Posted June 30, 2011 Share Posted June 30, 2011 Same horn as the RF-7, but different tweeter from both the RF-7 and the RF-3. Also, the RF-5 has different crossovers, a marginally larger cabinet, and deeper port tuning over the RF-3s, while having a real wood veneer and being made in Hope like the RF-7.

Styx Posted June 30, 2011 Share Posted June 30, 2011 i got a pair of rf-3 II's for 250 but thats how i roll. That's a good score for sure. I traded a yardsale pair of 901 VI's ($35) for RF-3's a few years back. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

orrb_05 Posted July 1, 2011 Share Posted July 1, 2011 I had a pair of the classic RF-7s in the dark cherry. The finish is beautiful, for sure - even better than the RF-7II IMO!! Still, I let them go as a means to obtain a pair of RF-7IIs - my ears preferred the II's. The classics will be hard to find, and as already stated, will not come cheap.
