Toxic Mule Posted February 8, 2003 Share Posted February 8, 2003 I just purchased the rc-3 ll(to try out and compare vs my old center speaker, a BA VR-920) to round out my Klipsch reference series. The box says it has a 1.7" titanium compression driver, but it looks to be the same size as my rs-3 and rf-3 tweeter. I looked at the box again to be sure. Anyone else noticed this? Am I missing something. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tripod Posted February 8, 2003 Share Posted February 8, 2003 Here are the specs from the Klipsch site: The 97dB RC-3 II center channel loudspeaker delivers articulate dialogue and surprising dynamics through its 1" titanium diaphragm compression driver mated to a 6" square Tractrix® Horn and two 6.5" Cerametallic woofers. The RC-3 II now also features internal Monster Cable® Z-Series wiring! I guess the box was a typo. Maybe it's a collectable. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tripod Posted February 8, 2003 Share Posted February 8, 2003 Here are the RC-7 specs, looks like they got them scrambled on the boxes somehow. The RC-7 utilizes a combination of professional grade materials and advanced horn technology for a smooth response and consistent coverage pattern. The new Reference Series 1.75" titanium dome compression driver is coupled to an 8" square Tractrix® Horn and powered by an unusually large, video-shielded 22oz. magnet.

Toxic Mule Posted February 8, 2003 Author Share Posted February 8, 2003 Ha! The box says "... dual 6.5" woofers and ... a 1.7" titanium compression driver". Funny, its not just the rc-7 printing-its a mixture of the rc-3 and rc-7 printing. This is false advertizing-I want my 1.7" compression driver . So far, I think this is a better sounding speaker(than the BA VR-920), and it cost some $200 less. I guess you dont always get what you u pay for. Maybe I can sell my old speaker and get $200-$300, its it great condition and only 1.5 years old. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
