ashoksrini Posted December 13, 2004 Share Posted December 13, 2004 Hi folks.. I am setting up my first Home Theater system. I was deciding between Polk Monitor 50 and Klipsch and decided on going with Klipsch Reference series. Y'day I bought RF-15s and RC-25 with a Denon AVR 2805! The sales person @ the store suggested that I buy bookshelf RB-15 for my surround speakers over an actual surround speakers. He said there was not too much audible difference between them and moreover the bookshelves could also be used as another speakers in another room (if needed). So I went ahead and got RB-15. What do you think? Is there really a big difference and should I return the RBs and stick to buying a specialized surround speakers? Thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scp53 Posted December 13, 2004 Share Posted December 13, 2004 is your placement for the surround speakers ideal? i mean can you point them directly at the "sweet spot". Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Steve_OConnor Posted December 13, 2004 Share Posted December 13, 2004 I have the RF-15's in front with 4-RS-25's for surround/back surround. The RS-25's sound great for the money ($150/each discounted). I think they spread the surround channel output throughout the room whereas bookshelves may not.

chinoloco Posted December 20, 2004 Share Posted December 20, 2004 The difference I see is two tweeters on RS and only 1 on the RB. The sound has Wide Dispersion on the RS and more direct from the RB. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
