need advice on Klipsch speaker purchase

[vulcan]

Wanted to buy some larger Klipsch tower speakers for my stereo set up. Have a 12x18 room. I have been researching

the KLF-20 and they would seem to be what i wanted. I am looking for a little better bass response. I have some Forte 2

now in a smaller room, they sound good there. Looking at the prices now on the KLF speakers are probably out of my budget, max at $1000.

I see most of the KLF-20s for $1500 around here. Are the KLF-20s worth it?

What other lines of the Klipsch tower models would work for me? The KG5.5 and the Epic line speakers look good and can

get a pair of KG5.5 for around $600. The KG5.5 seem to be rated highly. The KLF-10 is also a possibility or keep saving up for the 20s. 

I listen to mainly classic rock. Thanks for any helpful suggestions.

Welcome!

Where are you located @vulcan...?

KLF20's have lots of bottom end in fact more than I actually prefer but if bass is what you want, they'll deliver. They do have a noticeable amount of box resonance but my friend used something inside the corners like Liquid Nails to bring that resonance down. This video is before that modification was made.

Thanks for the video. They sound good and i like the bass, no subwoofers needed.

Definitely no subs needed at all with these.
