GOLDDOWN Posted June 18, 2004 Share Posted June 18, 2004 I have a friend that wants to sell his cav 180 CHEAP!!!!! Has anybody heard it on the RF 5s or RF 7s Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
arthurs Posted June 18, 2004 Share Posted June 18, 2004 never heard them together but my bet is Classe is a nice match with your Klipsch and the 180 should have plenty of power for them....Classe leans towards the smooth side sonically which should mate well....keep us posted!

cjgeraci Posted June 18, 2004 Share Posted June 18, 2004 Golddown: I run a Classe pre/pro with Reference sevens and highly recommend the brand. You should jump on it. If you do not end up doing so, PM me the details about what your friend is asking. Depending on the asking price, I might be interested. Always curious about Classe stuff even though I am pleased with my Rotel amps. Do you know why he is selling it? Carl. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SteelerFan Posted June 18, 2004 Share Posted June 18, 2004 If I hadn't just bought an amp I'd be all over it! The CAV-180 was my dream amp but at $4000 out of my range. Somebody is about to get lucky. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
levir Posted June 19, 2004 Share Posted June 19, 2004 I am currently using a Classe CAV-180 w/Bryston SP1.7. It is a good 5-channel amp. I don't mean to be disrespectful but I think it needs a better speaker than Klipschs'. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cjgeraci Posted June 19, 2004 Share Posted June 19, 2004 Not really sure what you meant or intended by your last comment. A number of people mix and match varying levels of equipment in their systems. From looking at your profile, you do as well. Sometimes perceived quality or value is in the eye of the beholder. Besides, would you make the same comment if he was running k'horns? In any event. More to the point of the thread. Based on your experience, how would this amp sound with horn-loaded speakers running titanium tweeters? How would you characterize its sound (neutral, bright or warm?) Thanks. Carl.
