propergol Posted December 23, 2016 Share Posted December 23, 2016 (edited) Hello, I just bought a RP-440C and their copper color is dull compared to commercial pictures or videos on Youtube. I am wondering if this couldn't be some kind of oxidation due to a wet storage environment. Do you think there is a chance this would affect speakers quality? Thanks Edited December 23, 2016 by propergol Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Curious as to what "dull" means though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But some photos of your speakers would help to show us if they are unusual. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
propergol Posted December 24, 2016 Author Share Posted December 24, 2016 Ok I did just took some pictures and, strangely the pictures looks nearly the same as commercials ones due to some internal post-processing I guest. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's unreal how nice mcdonalds is over there. Everyone dresses nice and is polite. Crazy how different it is compared to here. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I hope they're not water damaged, you would probably notice damage on the wood veneer and/or the box. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chriswhotakesphotos Posted December 25, 2016 Share Posted December 25, 2016 If I were processing pictures of Klipsch speakers, I'd add a heavy contrast contour to those cones to make them (visually) explode. Since most interior lighting is very diffuse, it will reduce the appearance of contrast on almost anything. Use a few Ikea Dioder (or other) lights at an angle on each speaker to bring out that luster! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
