Moderators Youthman Posted November 22, 2017 Moderators Share Posted November 22, 2017 Thought I would share a few photos of the my Forte III in Natural Cherry that arrived yesteraday. I'll be making a few videos of the Forte III over the next week and will post a link to them here. They are absolutely beautiful! Klipsch really put a lot of detail into the Forte III. Looking forward to my day off today when I get to hear them for the first time and spend some quality time with them. I want to see how they sound in the theater room, then move them to the living room and do some A/B comparisons between the Forte III and the RF-7 II. Thanks @MetropolisLakeOutfitters 6 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Moderators Youthman Posted November 22, 2017 Author Moderators Share Posted November 22, 2017 I'll be listening to them a lot today. Let me know what day you want to come by. Jessica just left and the kids just got up so I'm going to head into the theater room to hear them for the first time. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

willland Posted November 22, 2017 Share Posted November 22, 2017 Will they eventually replace the RF-7II's in the living room? Bill Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bluesman1960 Posted November 22, 2017 Share Posted November 22, 2017 NICE! I have the Forte III's in cherry as well, about 6 weeks old. Really enjoying them after stint with Magnepans (apples and oranges). Driving them with a Rogue Sphinx integrated with very fine results. I do have a Marantz PM 8005 on the way as an experiment (I have the matching CD/SACD player) to see what kind of synergy I get. Enjoy! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If they sound better, yes. If I like them better than the Forte III, I will likely give the RF-7 II to Jacob (my son) and sell his original RF-7's.

The FIII's are amazing. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BlessedPrince Posted November 22, 2017 Share Posted November 22, 2017 No particular artist....just a variety of styles. I love acoustic music but listen to all types of music.I love acoustic music too. I really like listening passenger’s acoustic sessions. Niall horan new acoustic version of “Too much to ask”is good. Also, Ed Sheeran’s are good too. Sam Smith new cd has some good songs too. Just throwing them out there. Not sure if that’s for your taste. I find them very pleasing on my humble 280’s[emoji6]Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Moderators Youthman Posted November 22, 2017 Author Moderators Share Posted November 22, 2017 Thank you for the suggestions. I'll check those out as well. Sam Smith and Ed Sheeran have some new tracks that I had already added to my playlist to demo. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
