boa12 Posted July 23, 2001 Share Posted July 23, 2001 "keeping up" is pretty subjective. what it really means is loudness or spl imho. others will say that it's something like the transient response, though that's also really subjective & difficult if not impossible to measure scientifically. imho it's hard for many subs to "keep up" w/ many klipsch speaks because the klipsch are so damn efficient/loud. oh, almost forgot the disclaimer: given the subjectivity, listen to them together & as many others as possible & let thy ears be the guide & as long as i'm editing here, might i suggest that u also try some others like a paradigm pw2200 or velodyne ct-150, or www.svsubwoofers.com ? might prefer them over the current klipsch sub offerings at least until their new (& more expensive) subs arrive in the next few months. ------------------ Klipsch KLF 30 (front), KLF C-7, Cornwall I (rear) Velodyne HGS-18 sub woofer Monsterbass 400 sub interconnect & Monster CX-2 biwire & Z1 cable Marantz SR-8000 receiver Sony DVP-C650D 5-disk cd/dvd player Sony Trinitron 27" stereo tv Toshiba hi-fi stereo vcr Technics dual cassette deck Scientific Atlanta Explorer 2000 digital cable box Boa's Listenin Lounge: Klipsch RF-3 (front), RC-3, cheap little Technics (rear) Monster MCX Biwires Sony STR-DE935 a/v receiver Kenwood KR-9600 AM/FM stereo receiver (vintage 1975) Russound AB-2 receiver switch to RF-3 Teac PD-D1200 5-disk cd changer Technics SL-1950 turntable/AT LS500 cartridge Sega Genesis game player Sub: None yet rock on!

Seb Posted July 24, 2001 Share Posted July 24, 2001 boa, with all due respect, maybe, just maybe, you could trim down your signature a little bit, or at least not include it with every single post... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
