GRCRYSTYK Posted February 11, 2004 Share Posted February 11, 2004 As I understand it, or have been told, the newer RF's have a different crossover, and Monster Z wire in them. Does this make much of a difference in the output? If so, what is it supose to be, and has anybody noticed, or is it worth worrying about at all,......? Thanks again,...GRCRY,...>>>---> Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
yromj Posted February 11, 2004 Share Posted February 11, 2004 The reference speakers have had Monster wire in them for a while. How recent are these improvements you're talking about? John Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GRCRYSTYK Posted February 11, 2004 Author Share Posted February 11, 2004 Update to my question,...maybe,.... I was just at a not so local store,..and I was told, only the new models got the new crossovers and Z wire. The RF5's and 7's still have what they had before the new models came out, and that this store anyway, didn't notice too much of a difference in sound. I questioned that, due to the fact the whole speaker was updated, not just the crossover and wire. Long story short, the 7's I am interested in, haven't changed, so there is no need to think the newer units are any different than last years,..... Thanks for any info if there is another twist to this though,.... GRCRY,...>>>---> Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MrMcGoo Posted February 11, 2004 Share Posted February 11, 2004 My RF-7s were manufactured early in 2002 and have Monster Z wire inside. I have never removed the crossover, so changes are beyond my knowledge. I would suspect that the sales person is telling stories to try to make a sale.

klpschfan Posted February 11, 2004 Share Posted February 11, 2004 All of the Klipsch Reference series currently available have Monster Z series in them. Only the RC3, RS3, RB3 and RB5, and RF3 didn't in the reference series didn't have it, they were replaced in 02 with the RC3II, RS3II, RB3II and RB5II models with the upgraded wire. The RC7, RS7, RF7 models have always had Monster Z series. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dome Posted February 12, 2004 Share Posted February 12, 2004 To my knowledge, the crossover never changed... just the wire and a few cosmetic changes. Correct me if I am wrong. -Adam 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
