tom67 Posted September 3, 2003 Share Posted September 3, 2003 Considering them or RB5IIs for about half the cost. Are they worth the difference.I am interested if the front port makes a difference in shelf mount uses against a wall, since that is my present requirement.

Bill H. Posted September 3, 2003 Share Posted September 3, 2003 Tom, Don't know your answer, but would love to hear myself what the difference is......I have RF 3 II now. I love the sound, but they aren't pretty speakers....too boxy. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheEAR Posted September 3, 2003 Share Posted September 3, 2003 Sorry so far my Klipsch dealer did not get the RB75,only the RB35's.The RB35's replace the RB5. I still prefer my RB5's. The RB75's use a true compression tweeter much like the RF7's and RC7.The upper end should be improved and high level playback totally efortless. I have to test them first,I cannot speak yet.

IndyKlipschFan Posted September 4, 2003 Share Posted September 4, 2003 I heard them at the Klipsch weekend.... You will be very very happy with them!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
avman Posted September 4, 2003 Share Posted September 4, 2003 rb-75's better mids and highs;real wood veneer;TWICE the price of rb35's tough one unless one of the above stepups hits a 'hot button'. front porting means more flexible placement options for the rb35 and rb75. i have a yammy rxv3300 setup in the showroom w/rb75's/rc-7/rs-7's/rsw-12...they ROCK!! avman.

jzoz01 Posted September 4, 2003 Share Posted September 4, 2003 What about the rf5s vs. the rb75s? They are nearly the same price and i'm considering getting a pair of one of them. I assume the highs would be better with the rb75s but the low end would be much better with the rf5s. Am I missing something here? Is there anything else i should consider.
