condensedflesh95 Posted May 3, 2021 Share Posted May 3, 2021 Hi, Looking to build my first hi-fi set-up and knew that Klipsch was the way to go. I live in a small NYC apartment so a bookshelf pair makes the most sense. I was looking to buy some RP-600M new, but thought I'd check here first to see if anyone is trying to offload. Any tips / recommendations are appreciated as well! Thanks! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

willland Posted May 3, 2021 Share Posted May 3, 2021 @condensedflesh95, Welcome to the forum. Here is a very nice used pair with stands for a very good price. https://newyork.craigslist.org/que/ele/d/astoria-klipsch-rp-600m-speakers-stands/7315789475.html Bill Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
condensedflesh95 Posted May 3, 2021 Author Share Posted May 3, 2021 Thank you both! Definitely going to take a look at Crutchfield, as you said, the full price from Klipsch is not bad at all either. Unfortunately, the Craigslist pair sold - but will continue to stalk for more! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
grasshopper Posted May 5, 2021 Share Posted May 5, 2021 I got my RP600Ms directly from Klipsch for $400 + $40 shipping. I did jump when I saw the sale price. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
grasshopper Posted May 6, 2021 Share Posted May 6, 2021 ...you might want to check out the Heritage line. Heresy are slightly larger... a few inches in all dimensions and can be had for about the same price, used. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
condensedflesh95 Posted May 9, 2021 Author Share Posted May 9, 2021 Thanks - would love some Heresy's but I'm in a tiny railroad with an 8ft wide living room (at most), so smaller footprint may be the way to go. Think I'll pick u the RP-600M from Klipsch. Also looking to build/buy a vintage tube amp - been looking at the Transcendent Sound SOB OTL. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They sound unbelievable with a ten inch sub, much bigger sound at low listening levels. The 600M is rated at 100 wpc. I use a 100 wpc mini amp for use with my computer and it will work just as good with TV. Although I'm sure this amp doesn't produce anywhere near 100 watts per side it offers a lot of connectivity options and has a built-in DAC. https://www.amazon.com/eSynic-Amplifier-Bluetooth-Receiver-Converter/dp/B086ZMZGC1/ref=pd_cart_vw_crc_1_2/139-1473426-4313753?_encoding=UTF8&pd_rd_i=B086ZMZGC1&pd_rd_r=37c9ec07-855c-4e43-b9a2-5d0cd4c4f12a&pd_rd_w=SlFvn&pd_rd_wg=ln5D3&pf_rd_p=01004c92-8f40-4f1a-bee8-08cb36dccac2&pf_rd_r=JRFV4KKFJ7SBGGJF2K3X&psc=1&refRID=JRFV4KKFJ7SBGGJF2K3X Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
