JeremyM Posted January 6, 2013 Share Posted January 6, 2013 Hi everyone. Youthman steered me over here so I thought I would post a little about my setup. First off I demoed a set of RF-82II's a few months ago, now I would have loved to been able to purchase them. But that price point was just a touch out of my reach. Not to be discouraged, I turned to looking for a used set. As luck would have it, I found a set of RF-35's about an hour away from me for a great price. They are in good shape but the laminate on the top corners is wrinkled a little bit. After snatching those up, the search was on for a matching center. Browsing E-bay netted me a RB-35 for $100. The catch was the missing grill. Which really doesn't bother me, as I love the look of those copper woofers. Right now my surrounds are my previous Infinity RS-3's. But I'm on the lookout for that perfect deal on a set of RS-42's. Driving it all is a Pioneer 1020k currently, with plans to upgrade later on. Video is handled by my trusty PS3, and my "little" big screen Mitsubishi 73" DLP. And a few gaming duties handled by the X-box Kinect. Also running a couple Aura BassShakers in the couch. Did I mention this is in my apartment? Currently working towards purchasing my first home next year. And my wife and I both agree that a dedicated theater is a high priority. Anyway, here is some pics for everybody The wrinkles in the RF's And what do I think of my new Klipsch? I am not a big 2 channel guy, however, I spent the first week of owning these listening to music. I have heard things that I never have before in songs that I've listened too at least a hundred times. My old music has become new, my favorite movies are different. The clarity, vibrance, and how bright they are is absolutely amazing. My name is Jeremy, and I'm a Klipsch addict. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nice pictures and set up, especially in an apartment[] This is a great community but be careful when you ask us to help spend YOUR money.

Moderators Youthman Posted January 6, 2013 Moderators Share Posted January 6, 2013 Good to see you in the Klipsch forums Jeremy. I told you these guys were "enablers". We have no problem helping other people spend their money. [] Just an FYI, the forums will crop your images if they are too wide. Try to keep them around 700 pixels wide and they will fit nicely. I think the RB-35 center is a great idea. Looks sweet with all those copper cones. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

lo123 Posted January 6, 2013 Share Posted January 6, 2013 Welcome to the forum! You'll love the RF-35s, been running them since 2004, movies, music, they have a great sound. The matching center for the RF-35s is an RC-35 if you come across one used. Enjoy! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Moderators Youthman Posted January 7, 2013 Moderators Share Posted January 7, 2013 Youthman is off his game....I missed a sweet deal last night because my Craigslist app notified me 5hrs after the guy posted. Pair of B&W floorstanding speakers for $150 and a Krell 300i (200 x 2) amp for $300. Said they sold within the hour. [] You gotta be quick on the draw for those really sweet deals but they are definitely out there to help you build your dream system on the cheap.

Rivernuggets Posted January 8, 2013 Share Posted January 8, 2013 Youthman is off his game.... AND speaking about himself in the third person! [] Sorry you missed the B&Ws and Krell. That means you'll score a different deal down the road. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Moderators Youthman Posted January 8, 2013 Moderators Share Posted January 8, 2013 AND speaking about himself in the third person! It's that split personality talking. [] Sorry you missed the B&Ws and Krell. That means you'll score a different deal down the road. No doubt....I just added another "tool" to my arsenal. On the hunt....

ivanhurd Posted January 8, 2013 Share Posted January 8, 2013 Good stuff. My upgrade to Klipsch was quite significant as well, it opened up a whole new world of sound and I'm loving it too. Enjoy your speakers! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
