billstang94 Posted February 24, 2017 Share Posted February 24, 2017 (edited) Long time Klipsch owner here, I've have a number of pairs in the various levels of the Reference Series all run by Vintage Marantz and Sansui Receivers, I think I've decided to to pony up and venture into the Heritage Series I was initially looking at the Cornwall III but also debating sticking with the Reference and going with the RF 7 II, but now I'm intrigued by upcoming Forte III so now I'm really torn, wonder if there are any veterans out there with some guidance, I'm looking to pair them with a Marantz 2270 that currently is pushing a pair of RP-3's any advice is certainly appreciated!

willland Posted February 24, 2017 Share Posted February 24, 2017 Billstang94, Welcome to the forum. If I was going to buy any new Klipsch speaker today and I could afford it, I would get the forte" III. If they are even close to either the forte" I or II(I am sure better), then they are winners. Not too big, just the right amount of bass, midrange, and treble, very well balanced. And of course, the nostalgia factor. Bill Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
billstang94 Posted February 24, 2017 Author Share Posted February 24, 2017 Thanks! And thanks for weighing in Bill appreciate it, That's the nice thing as the Forte won't be available until the fall it give me time to save up my pennies! But with all the discussion regarding what to drive them with I guess I was getting a little confused... Bill Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Find you some forte' I's or forte' II's locally to get you tuned up for the forte' III's. Sell them when you are ready to buy the new ones.

No, if they are in decent shape and priced "right", you should be able to buy, flip, and recoupe all your $$$. Bill Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
