Harry Tage Posted January 8, 2017 Share Posted January 8, 2017 Looking for a pair in great to excellent condition. Please let me know if you have a pair you would like to part with. TIA Harry Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
willland Posted January 8, 2017 Share Posted January 8, 2017 Harry, I see you are not new to the forum but this is your first post. I am not selling my 75's but what is your plan with these great speakers once you acquire them? Do you have a preference in wood finish? Good luck with your search.

willland Posted January 8, 2017 Share Posted January 8, 2017 A little steep for this maple pair but worth some investigation. http://www.ebay.com/itm/Klipsch-RB-75-Main-Stereo-Speakers-/282193906890?hash=item41b4114cca:g:NOAAAOSwmfhX3L1f Bill Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bill These will be used in my home office with an older Pioneer SX980 receiver. I would prefer the cherry finish but they seem harder to find. Thanks for the luck.

Harry Tage Posted January 9, 2017 Author Share Posted January 9, 2017 A few scuffs or scratches would be ok if not too noticeable. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Woofers and Tweeters Posted January 9, 2017 Share Posted January 9, 2017 Yep, they don't come up very often. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Harry Tage Posted January 9, 2017 Author Share Posted January 9, 2017 Just now, Woofers and Tweeters said: Yep, they don't come up very often. I get that they are scarce but just can't justify 800 to 1000 for a pair. I've got patience and not in any rush. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Harry Tage Posted January 9, 2017 Author Share Posted January 9, 2017 The Sixes look interesting but don't seem to be available yet. Could be another option for me. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

shovelnose Posted January 13, 2017 Share Posted January 13, 2017 Why not RB 81's or 81 ii? Pretty close and cheaper and more available. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've heard them side by side and the 75's sounded much better in my opinion. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
shovelnose Posted January 13, 2017 Share Posted January 13, 2017 Never heard the 75's myself. Own 2 pairs of the 81's. On paper they should be the same. But I understand what you are saying. Also I see they have a larger high end driver. Good luck with your search. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The 75 features a 1.75" compression driver and better crossover components. It is superior to the RB-81 in almost every way. 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
