Moderators Youthman Posted January 5, 2015 Author Moderators Share Posted January 5, 2015 “We have a singular mission for the Reference Premiere series, which is to blow the doors off the expectations of our loyal following,” said Mark Casavant, senior vice president of product development for Klipsch. “This new lineup delivers the ultimate realism and intimacy associated with the live music experience. It’s an outstanding new experience that will stun audiophiles and music lovers alike.” Thanks for the article Dave. Guess we will find out if this is true when we get to hear them first hand.

So a $1,350 set of speakers are going to blow the doors off Klipschorns or Palladiums? WOW! Edited January 5, 2015 by eth2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Administrators Chad Posted January 5, 2015 Administrators Share Posted January 5, 2015 Chad, can we see the full "Teaser" video unveiling the new speaker lineup? Yes, it'll be live tomorrow. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fish Posted January 5, 2015 Share Posted January 5, 2015 Hmmm....well,while three way affordable reference would have been my wish...I will congratulate Klipsch on the idea a Great Speaker at an affordable price. If these can deliver on the sound they will have a MAJOR release and my renewed admiration. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Moderators Youthman Posted January 5, 2015 Author Moderators Share Posted January 5, 2015 Cool, thanks Chad. You know, there are some here that are probably hoping there's another surprise under the sheet. LOL Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Moderators Youthman Posted January 5, 2015 Author Moderators Share Posted January 5, 2015 Points at you Nah....I'm just having some fun. As I mentioned earlier, this was the reveal. I don't think there is another surprise. I will congratulate Klipsch on the idea a Great Speaker at an affordable price. If these can deliver on the sound they will have a MAJOR release and my renewed admiration. Klipsch has and I believe will continue to make amazing speakers for many years to come. Unfortunately, we are probably the most difficult group to please as many of us have worked our way up the ladder and we often do not get excited unless it's a release of something that supersedes what we have. I myself am waiting to see what will replace the RF-7ii. They have been in production now for 4 years. The original RF-7 were in production for 6 years and the RF-83 were in production for 4 years. It might be safe to say that the RF-7ii may not be replaced for a few more years. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ouachita Posted January 5, 2015 Share Posted January 5, 2015 I think there's something else coming Today is the 5th - not the 6th. "Biggest Launch in Years" is on the 6th. A few minor changes to the reference lineup and a couple of wireless speakers does not make this the "Biggest Launch in Years". Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It just wouldn't make any sense as it sits as the biggest launch in years. They must have something big still under the covers Edited January 5, 2015 by Cinema_head Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Administrators Chad Posted January 5, 2015 Administrators Share Posted January 5, 2015 We had to make the CES site fully (well, 98%) live today because of the Voxx press event that happened about an hour ago. Tomorrow you'll see more product imagery & pricing information of the RP stuff (although studious individuals would notice the press release having the pricing, and the specs and images are linked on the press page as well) and the full RP launch video that was really well done. Maybe a couple other secrets here and there throughout this week ;-) More Atmos product details will be forthcoming soon. I've not been approved to relay any more info via the web on that other than what gets reported at CES. The WiSA line is very interesting as well, but we are pretty early in the product cycle for it so we can't divulge too much more detail on it YET.

Yep, I agree. Wouldn't it be a mind blower if these did supersede what you or I have as far as sound quality? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Moderators Youthman Posted January 5, 2015 Author Moderators Share Posted January 5, 2015 Maybe a couple other secrets here and there throughout this week ;-) Those are always welcomed. Thanks for giving us the head's up Chad. We certainly do appreciate it. Klipsch is doing great and if this will help them stay competitive and thriving in a tough economy, that's a good thing, regardless if it does not meet all of our needs or desires.

If I could have the sound of the LaScalas in a Reference Speaker, I would absolutely love it! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chris A Posted January 5, 2015 Share Posted January 5, 2015 That segues nicely... Perhaps it's a lot to ask, but a bit more emphasis on how they sound rather than how they look (on the forums, that is) might be a fairer assessment of "biggest launch"...right? Changes in the horn shape and their surface treatments might be a bigger deal than you might otherwise imagine...acoustically.

I think this is actually a very good idea. Then let the chips fall where they may. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
