CHASLS2 Posted December 28, 2014 Share Posted December 28, 2014 Thinking about buying a set of 7ll's and the RC64ll. I see some good deals on B stock and i also want cherry. Seems there are no used RF7's ever in my area so buying used is out, Not sure how much better they would be compared to the older version of RF7's i have had in the past. They would replace a set of Paradigm Singature 2 v3's that are very good speakers and sound great. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

willland Posted December 28, 2014 Share Posted December 28, 2014 I might be selling my RF7s in the near future but they are black. Would that be your 7's or 7II's? Just to clarify for Charles. Bill Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CHASLS2 Posted December 28, 2014 Author Share Posted December 28, 2014 (edited) I might be selling my RF7s in the near future but they are black. Would that be your 7's or 7II's? Just to clarify for Charles. Bill I think he means his 7ll's. I think i remember him buying two sets for a crazy price like 2 years ago or so. I have looked for a while, but never see any local deals on used RF7ll's. I was also thinking about some B&W CM10's, but never see them local used. The CM10's are kinda pricey new, but i like their smaller size. The 7ll's are as big as i would ever go in a speaker.

They would replace a set of Paradigm Singature 2 v3's that are very good speakers and sound great. I loved my 7s but have found that there are better speakers for the same or less money. Heritage or the pro line is my advise. 3 las scales or 2 with a heresy in the middle if you can't fit a 3rd. or 3 cornwalls would cost 1/3 as much as the 7s and 64. And they would be just as good. And the pro line will crush all of them and can be deliver right in your home ( they bring it in) with just a phone call. I know the 7s look bad ***. I get that. And I'm not saying don't buy them. It really comes down to what you want your money to do. Is it looks and performance or is it all performance. Because with the 7s half your money is being spent on looks alone. If you go pro line as an example that half will be spent on performance. Just something to think about. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You get over the size after you hear them. I wanna see someone buy a set of kpt-325 build a top hat around the horn and then put two grills on with pie logos. Would be saweeeeeet!

When i sold my older 7's i said i would never go back to a speaker as big as they were. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Seems like the 325 is almost like a 2-way Cornwall. cause they are smaller. Shorter. That's all. 904's all the way. Same sound just more output from what I am told. I think the kpt-325 will snake a Cornwall. The 2" b&c driver is top notch, and the 510 horn is amazing. If they made a Cornwall 4 and it was a kpt-325ish in a Cornwall cabinet and veneered I think it would be one of the hottest new sellers to enthusiasts.

Paducah Home Theater Posted December 28, 2014 Share Posted December 28, 2014 I know the 7s look bad ***. I get that. And I'm not saying don't buy them. It really comes down to what you want your money to do. Is it looks and performance or is it all performance. Because with the 7s half your money is being spent on looks alone. Most of these conversations won't mention this. They do look really nice, even nicer in person, very impressive looking. Which, believe it or not, is in fact pretty important if they're going to sit out in the middle of your living room, much more socially acceptable than the pro line with a big raw horn sitting on top. If you can hide it, sure, otherwise at some point in your life you will question the sanity of having a really nice house just to have huge funky looking pro audio speakers laying around as if you still lived in a frat house. RF-7ii's don't have that problem, they are beautiful. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Seems like the 325 is almost like a 2-way Cornwall. They would smoke a cornwall pretty easy. I love my cornwalls. They sound great and have amazing bass. So bass would be close for sure vs the 325s. But after that the 510 with a 2" exit and a huge b&c driver (like scrappy said) bests them by a lot. On a scale if the 904s are a 10 the cornwalls would be a 5 or a 6 (if that). So the 325s I'm guessing would be a 9. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RF-7ii's don't have that problem, they are beautiful. You make a great point. And in fact its one I have made here before against buying the heritage or pro years ago. But that was before I have heard them. You have no idea what your missing. Its eye popping big. And if you re read my post I do bring up looks. So its been mentioned. What do you want to pay for. You have said its looks and performance. But not everyone wants to take away money for looks that takes away from performance.They want their dollar to go as far as it can. Looks are important to me too. But not as much as they use to be. My eyes have opened up a lot and see that giving up performance for looks isn't as worth it. I never new the gap would be so big with the 7s vs 904s. At the time the 7s and cornwalls were the best speakers I have spent any time with. And it was hard to imagine it being that much better. So I know your mind set. Your thinking they same way I did back then so I get it. But if you ever get some of these in your home you will tell me I was so right . Would I put a stock 904 in my living room? Probably not. But they can be made to look pretty cool. I have done some and its made a huge difference. If I put the top horns in a cab with a grill they could easily sit in a living room. Plus I'm getting to old to settle for less because I want it to look cool. Looks need to be moved farther down the list for me. To get the 904 performance in a smaller home style speaker would probably be some mega bucks.

Heritage_Head Posted December 28, 2014 Share Posted December 28, 2014 I know I sound like a big fan boy. But if I didn't push them I would be doing a disservice to the forum. Way better performance and cost is about the same. Its a no brainer in my book unless looks matter more than performance. Then not so much.
