Shiplemw1 Posted May 3, 2001 Share Posted May 3, 2001 Right now, I would have the money for the following: Adcom GFA-555 or GFA-555 MkII (200 x 2 @ 8 ohms) Yamaha RX-V596 receiver or my current receiver until I find the need to upgrade Klipsch RF-3's for front mains Klipsch RC-3 for center Klipsch Quintet for surrounds due to the lack of $$$ to get the RS-3's How do you think this would sound? I've heard that the klipsch-yamaha sound can be a bit bright and if I add the adcom amp I've heard it can be bright as well. If I couldn't find the $$$ for the RC-3 what would be a good substitute for the time being? Thanks a bunch, mike Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Quenten Posted May 3, 2001 Share Posted May 3, 2001 I think you'll love it--I would! As for as a substitute for the RC-3, don't worry about it. You can feed the center information to the mains with the Yammy until you get a center. That's what I did. Save your money, the wait will make you enjoy it even more. Of course once the new Refs come out shortly, you may decide you have to have them instead! We need must love the highest when we hear it!

avman Posted May 4, 2001 Share Posted May 4, 2001 the yammy rxv596 has just been replaced by a rxv620 which now incorporates their 'top art' design for better digital processing. previously you had to go to their $799 rxv800 to get 'top art'.the rxv620 goes for about $499. GET THE ADCOM AMP!! talk about bang-for-the-buck!! you'll really light up those speakers w/ that amp. avman Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
myram Posted May 4, 2001 Share Posted May 4, 2001 As a long time owner of Adcom amps you can't go wrong with them. They are rock solid, sound great, and really pound a set of speakers. Good Luck. ------------------ Home Theater System: Klipsch Quartets - mains for both systems Klipsch KV3 - center Klipsch KG.5's - rear surrounds Klipsch KSW12 subwoofer Denon AVR-1601 Music System: Adcom GFA-555 Musical Concepts Modified NAD 1600 Pre/Tuner Sony C-67ES CD Player Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
