Ceptorman Posted January 30, 2018 Share Posted January 30, 2018 They make awesome speakers, especially the subs. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe Klipsch will realease a CF-5 sometime in the future. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

wvu80 Posted January 30, 2018 Share Posted January 30, 2018 JTR is an internet direct company. The Noesis 212HT is an MTM 3-way using a co-axial driver. They are very well regarded. http://www.avsforum.com/forum/89-speakers/1165099-official-jtr-speaker-thread.html 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Woofers and Tweeters Posted January 31, 2018 Share Posted January 31, 2018 212HTR @ 60Hz ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pzannucci Posted January 31, 2018 Share Posted January 31, 2018 Have to wonder. How are they using the compression driver from 350-24khz. Sounds like there is a lot of wiggle room in a spec that is supposed to be +/- 3db. Any horn driver that gets close to that costs 3/4 what the whole of the speaker does so I would need to hear them to believe they were really that smooth of a frequency response.

vasubandu Posted January 31, 2018 Author Share Posted January 31, 2018 @pzannucci I have not heard them yet, but I have never seen such a bunch of insanely over the top reviews in my life, mostly from very sophisticated users. You make a good point that needs more research. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No the AVSforum link, looks like they've been making stereo speakers for quite awhile now, I only knew about their subs which have quite a good reputation. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shiva Posted January 31, 2018 Share Posted January 31, 2018 Speakers with the MTM arrangement have caught my eye ever since I purchased my Epic CF3's, some 16 years ago. I started reading about the JTR speakers over at AVS when the first post began on that thread. Here is another one of interest. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
vasubandu Posted January 31, 2018 Author Share Posted January 31, 2018 OK @shiva that is nothing short of cruel. Accordiong to hifishark.com a pair of RM-8V sold on Yahoo Auctions in 2017 for $30,169. A pair of the 6 was on Audiogon for $33,000. https://www.audiogon.com/listings/monitors-rey-audio-kinoshita-rm-6vc-in-perfect-condition-2015-08-26-speakers-119034. Suddenly that seems reasonable. Should I sell the older kid or the younger one? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There is an "Official JTR" thread on avsforum.com that I linked to, that is where all the owners go to talk about them and has 38,000 posts. The link by @EpicKlipsch was to an AVSforum.com article by a staff member regarding Axpona 2017. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

vasubandu Posted January 31, 2018 Author Share Posted January 31, 2018 OK so I sent one of those comments from the jtrspeakers.com website just to say how impressed I was and that I hoped to be buy a set some day, and Jeff, the J of JTR sent me a very gracious email in response. How often does that happen? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

How often does that happen? Anyone that knows anything about marketing and customer service should act that way. That should be the norm not the exception. It should not be a big deal (not putting it down or anything). If you don't get treated that way when looking at a piece of equipment that costs a few grand, you should look elsewhere. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
