kriller7000dk Posted April 1, 2015 Share Posted April 1, 2015 Hi Am i the only one who is wondering how a future real flagship in the new Premiere Reference line would look and sound.? Does anyone know if there is a new one on the drawing board. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MercedesBerater Posted April 1, 2015 Share Posted April 1, 2015 My local dealer sold me a second pair (floor model) rf7ii's because they had to make room for the new replacement. I can't seem to find anything about what may be to come... Other than I got a wicked deal on the 7ii's so he could make room. I'm curious too! But will not replace, no matter how cool. I have to keep telling myself that! 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shodrewken Posted April 1, 2015 Share Posted April 1, 2015 Just my $.02, but IMO I don't think they'll go down the RF-7 route again, I'm thinking they might release something like the RF-83 and 63 or something new altogether. I have nothing to base this on just a gut feeling. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kriller7000dk Posted April 1, 2015 Author Share Posted April 1, 2015 Why? Every one seems to love RF7IIs instead of the RF83. But any way just really curious to see what they will do . Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shodrewken Posted April 1, 2015 Share Posted April 1, 2015 I think if for nothing else, change. We've technically have had three releases of the RF-7, the original, the "Classic" and the RF-7 II. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MercedesBerater Posted April 1, 2015 Share Posted April 1, 2015 Maybe it'll be more of a Palladium type design! 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paducah Home Theater Posted April 1, 2015 Share Posted April 1, 2015 In my opinion they will at least go to the silicone molded horns, or at least ought to from a marketing standpoint. Makes no sense to me to say those are better than plastic while your flagship continues to have plastic. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ninjai18 Posted April 1, 2015 Share Posted April 1, 2015 Would be very interested to see what a Premiere RF-7 would look like. The Premiere series is so damn gorgeous. It's my current wallpaper. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kriller7000dk Posted April 1, 2015 Author Share Posted April 1, 2015 Well some mix of palladium mid and high horns with the cerametallic drivers could be an bright idea. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Deang Posted April 2, 2015 Share Posted April 2, 2015 RF-7 III Three way would be nice - with the same inverted horn loaded cone as the Palladium. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Moderators Youthman Posted April 2, 2015 Moderators Share Posted April 2, 2015 We've been told several times that from Klipsch employees that they have no plans as of now to replace the RF-7ii. But who knows.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Moderators Youthman Posted April 2, 2015 Moderators Share Posted April 2, 2015 I'm looking forward to the next series of flagship speakers. The changes in the RP Series are growing on me Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
derrickdj1 Posted April 2, 2015 Share Posted April 2, 2015 (edited) The release of the Premier speaker was to make Synergy and Icon user feel that they are getting some of the Reference quality at a slightly lesser cost. Remember, Klipsch has to appeal to the average Joe so it will not be like the Palladiums, lol. It has to be affordable to the masses. It is really interesting that speaker companies have made incremental change on various types of speakers over the last 30 years but, many of the vintage speakers can give all the modern speakers a run for the money.

MercedesBerater Posted April 2, 2015 Share Posted April 2, 2015 Well not that it has to BE like the Palladiums... Just some trickle down, maybe just the shape, or a 3-way design. So the reference flagship feels like they have a piece of palladium technology - same as synergy & icon feel they get some reference technology.

Trentster5172 Posted April 2, 2015 Share Posted April 2, 2015 A three-way RF-7 like speaker would be sweet! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
