Moderators Youthman Posted April 5, 2013 Moderators Share Posted April 5, 2013 I'm looking for an RC-7. It will likely be placed behind fabric so cosmetics, finish and speaker grill aren't too much of an issue although an RC-7 in really good condition would be preferred. Would love to pick one up local or even a descent drive from Orlando, Tampa area but shipping would be ok if you are able to pack it extremely well and would request that the woofers be shipped separately as the magnets have a tendency to break the plastic baffle when dropped. PM me what you have and I'll reply with my email for you to send pics to. Thanks, Michael Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Moderators Youthman Posted April 7, 2013 Author Moderators Share Posted April 7, 2013 Although not an exact match for the RB-75's, I would consider an RC-64 as well. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tremors Posted April 8, 2013 Share Posted April 8, 2013 And the search for the elusive RC-7 begins (as said in my best Steve Irwin voice). Best of luck, amigo Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gorm Posted April 8, 2013 Share Posted April 8, 2013 Although not an exact match for the RB-75's, I would consider an RC-64 as well. I tried an RC-64 II with my RF-75s, it was not a good match at all. Even after Audyseey. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Moderators Youthman Posted April 8, 2013 Author Moderators Share Posted April 8, 2013 Thx Trev. Funny how I'm excited to be on the hunt even though it's not for me. [] Thx Gorm. Yeah, I'd rather get him an RC-7 for sure. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Moderators Youthman Posted April 9, 2013 Author Moderators Share Posted April 9, 2013 I have been communicating with the seller in Atlanta to purchase his RC-7 and was waiting to hear back from him about making payment but he just emailed me saying a local guy "might" be able to come up with the money by Friday so he is going to wait and see. I don't blame him for wanting to avoid shipping. I would rather buy an RC-7 locally. I told him I have the money in the bank and am ready to provide payment via Paypal. If anyone happens to be in the Atlanta area and would be willing to pick this up and ship it to me, let me know. Michael Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Moderators Youthman Posted April 9, 2013 Author Moderators Share Posted April 9, 2013 Thanks Crusty. Yes, I saw that one but don't want to risk trying to ship across the entire US. I was worried about the one from Atlanta to Florida making it ok. Definitely appreciate the head's up. I'm looking on Agon, Ebay and nationwide CL.

billybob Posted April 9, 2013 Share Posted April 9, 2013 An RC-3II will not work for the purpose? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fish Posted April 9, 2013 Share Posted April 9, 2013 If you can find original packing I would not worry about shipping as long as it's all original packing. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Moderators Youthman Posted April 9, 2013 Author Moderators Share Posted April 9, 2013 I've heard the RC-3 and IMO it doesn't compare to the RC-7. But thx for the suggestion Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sancho Panza Posted April 9, 2013 Share Posted April 9, 2013 there WERE 2 for sale in Shreveport, if any member lives there and can inquire http://shreveport.semesh.com/ads/search/?keyword=klipsch&state=&search_button=Search+%3E Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
af7lm Posted April 10, 2013 Share Posted April 10, 2013 Hello, I've been looking for Reference upgrades to my HT and came across this in the Wichita, KS area. http://wichita.craigslist.org/ele/3732688130.html Hope you can work something out.

Moderators Youthman Posted April 10, 2013 Author Moderators Share Posted April 10, 2013 Thanks Sancho, I don't see them listed now. Thx Af7. $500 + shipping is quite a bit more than I'm willing to spend. Would put the speaker at least $550 and the RC-7's can be had for much less than that. I just have to be patient for the right deal. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sancho Panza Posted April 10, 2013 Share Posted April 10, 2013 is this the same? http://app.audiogon.com/listings/full-range-klipsch-c7-the-best-center-channel-klipsch-made-2013-03-30-speakers-23435 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Moderators Youthman Posted April 10, 2013 Author Moderators Share Posted April 10, 2013 No, that one you linked to on Audiogon is a C7. It matches the KLF series, not the RF-7 series. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Moderators Youthman Posted April 10, 2013 Author Moderators Share Posted April 10, 2013 And for what it's worth, the C7 IMO is not even close to the best center channel speaker Klipsch has ever made. It does however make for a nice sales pitch. [] Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Moderators Youthman Posted April 16, 2013 Author Moderators Share Posted April 16, 2013 Just bought a mint cherry RC-7 from a forum member. Thx for everyone's help Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Moderators Youthman Posted April 22, 2013 Author Moderators Share Posted April 22, 2013 To help reduce the risk of damage during shipping, the seller has carefully removed the woofers and tweeter and is shipping them separately. The RC-7 will arrive this Thursday. Let's hope the UPS gorillas take care of it from Texas to Florida. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
