MychaelP Posted December 15, 2016 Share Posted December 15, 2016 I see the amazing deals this holiday season. Need a surround pair to match closely with my RB-3's. I received some advice awhile back on here to go with RB-41's. But the R-14M's are really on sale lately. Thoughts? I'd like to jump on a deal this evening if I can. Going without surrounds for too long now since my old ones died. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The History Kid Posted December 15, 2016 Share Posted December 15, 2016 The R-14M's are absolutely nothing like the RB-3. If you're going with surrounds, you're best with either another set of RB-3's, RB-41's, 51's, or 61's, or RS-3's. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was actually tempted to go with RB-81's and replace the RB-3's, move them to the back, but they're just too big to wall-mount for my wife to like it. I wonder if the RP-15M is much better. Klipsch has a 50% off on their site today I see, and those are on sale in addition to 50% off. Thanks again, loving that Klipsch sound since I switched from B&W 2 years ago.

The History Kid Posted December 15, 2016 Share Posted December 15, 2016 RS-3's are the advertised recommended speaker, and depending on where you place them may be a better bet. I would advise that you consider them - they shouldn't have any trouble keeping up with the RB-3's. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I want to go with more direct sounding surrounds though for future upgrade to Atmos. I think I'll wait for a deal on the RB-41's used. After the holiday there may be ton on craigslist or ebay I think due to everyone upgrading or receiving gifts. Thanks again for the honest opinions.

The History Kid Posted December 15, 2016 Share Posted December 15, 2016 You may also look at the RB-25 or 35 or RP-150M or 160M for what you're shooting for. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
