BLOOMIS914 Posted July 8, 2002 Share Posted July 8, 2002 I want one, but that is too much money. I had to post to this thread after seeing the two Cosmopolitan's/Martini's, my post will make a third and hopefully trigger some sort of slot machine/long odds payoff from Klipsch. I will wait by my door for the UPS truck with the entire new Reference line. This is great, I never win anything. Time to mix up another and celebrate!!! ------------------ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sseymour Posted July 9, 2002 Share Posted July 9, 2002 That guy has had WTB ads for academys all over the place then he goes and lists them on ebay starting at $400. I think he is trying to have an Academy monopoly. LOL! I am on the lookout for one as well but I won't pay what this guy wants. -Scott ------------------ BobG modified Forte II's KG-4 Surrounds RC-3 Center DIY Sub based on Adire Audio Shiva Woofer Sony DB830 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BLOOMIS914 Posted July 9, 2002 Share Posted July 9, 2002 Just great, single-handedly driving up the cost of the one speaker I relish..... That's why I refuse to buy from Erip! So much reselling and fake bidding going on. Who's thirsty? ------------------ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sseymour Posted July 10, 2002 Share Posted July 10, 2002 Yeah, and now the guy is posting WTB Forte ads.

BLOOMIS914 Posted July 10, 2002 Share Posted July 10, 2002 It would be unfortunate for him, if people bid up his merchandise to stratospheric prices under fake email names and then didn't buy. I hope no one would do something like that. ------------------ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sseymour Posted July 16, 2002 Share Posted July 16, 2002 I just ordered an Academy. I found one in as new condition for $299 + $25 shipping. I can't wait. I will probably sell my RC3. -Scott ------------------ BobG modified Forte II's KG-4 Surrounds RC-3 Center DIY Sub based on Adire Audio Shiva Woofer Sony DB830 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Freud Posted July 17, 2002 Share Posted July 17, 2002 sseymour, And hope you will tell us more between "RC3" and "ACADEMY"!!! Freud, 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jhawk92 Posted July 17, 2002 Share Posted July 17, 2002 Scott- That's a great price! You will love the Academy with your Fort-us, or are they Chor-tes? Seriously, the Academy is a great center and for the size, a great timbre match. Only thing better, or so I'm told, is another Forte or Chorus. If your experiences match mine, you won't believe the difference between the RC3 and the Academy. Congrats on a great deal. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sseymour Posted July 19, 2002 Share Posted July 19, 2002 Thanks all, I should have them on Tuesday. UPS ground is sooo frustrating. I want them now. I am such the American consumer, LOL. Looking forward to Tuesday... -Scott ------------------ BobG modified Forte II's KG-4 Surrounds RC-3 Center - Academy on the way - YIPPEE!!

LivinInThe70s Posted July 28, 2002 Share Posted July 28, 2002 Whats an academy?? Is it a Klipsch speaker?? Just asking as I am about to buy an RC-3. Cheers, Brett Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
M6 Driver Posted July 28, 2002 Share Posted July 28, 2002 Livin The Acadamy is a center channel speaker and mates well with the Cornwall,Chorus,Forte and Quartet which have been all retired. The Acadamy was put out to pasture in 1994. It's the cats meow for some folks here with Heritage based setups that can't score a single Klipsch Belle, La Scala, Heresy I or II or due to size restraints. I guess it's the most timbre matched of that series but a KLF C7 (as well retired) will do in a pinch and more avalible and a hair more affordable then a Acadamy. ------------------ "FULLY LOADED" J Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
