dmb12679 Posted February 10, 2016 Share Posted February 10, 2016 (edited) Three woofers seems like a wast if you heard the RF 7 II's. No more bass is needed in that speaker. IMHO, the reason the RF 7 II is still around is because it is a darn good speaker. I have the 7ii's, love them. 3 Large coppers would just give me a reason to get the upgrade bug back. The rf7ii's took that away from me. Can't a guy dream Edited February 10, 2016 by dmb12679 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I am in the minority on this forum but, I like 6.5 and 8 in. woofers over larger one. Who said follow the crowd anyway!

RoboKlipsch Posted February 19, 2016 Author Share Posted February 19, 2016 Since it's another newbie question I'd like to post it here instead of starting a new thread. Serious question so if it sounds stupid, hey, I'm new and I'll take the heat. Should speakers be warmed up...always? when playing loud? doesn't matter? more complicated than I'm thinking? If so how?

Paducah Home Theater Posted February 19, 2016 Share Posted February 19, 2016 (edited) Should speakers be warmed up...always? when playing loud? doesn't matter? more complicated than I'm thinking? If so how? Guys with competition grade mobile sub setups in their car who live up north will often take it easy for several minutes before really letting loose. Outside of that, no. Most are afraid their surrounds are stiffer and more brittle and they'll crack something.

RoboKlipsch Posted February 19, 2016 Author Share Posted February 19, 2016 Thanks MLO. I never heard people talk about it, but I thought asking once would give me a good answer and I thank you for it! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You will hear people talk about a break in period fo new speakers also. Some argue weather it is necessary or not, and how long. Common sense goes a long way. You may be able to hook up your new speakers and turn them straight up to 11. But I tend to ease into it. But after I've listened to them a short time(10-15hour), I'll crank it up any time I want as mloud as I want. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But, you're not going to damage anything by playing them too loud before you get to that point. Klipsch woofers seem to be pretty compliant straight out of the box. My ultimax subs were a different story. Dual really stiff spiders and rubber surrounds that feels like it's 1/8" thick. They were really muffled until 80-100 hours of use.
