bambam Posted February 13, 2006 Share Posted February 13, 2006 Has anyone got a pair of the RF-83's yet How do they sound and do you like them Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
frankphess Posted February 14, 2006 Share Posted February 14, 2006 I do not own them, however I stopped in The Little Guys in Glenwood, Ill. on Saturday and gave a pair a listen. I was hoping they did not sound good, but to my surprise I was very impressed. (They were driven with a Maranz reciever). The salesman said he was not a big fan of Klipsch, but he thought they did a good job with the RF-83's. I would have to agree. I own RF-7's with Deans mod and would not trade them for the world, but I was impressed with the RF-83's. The price was 1,249.00 per speaker.

wuzzzer Posted February 14, 2006 Share Posted February 14, 2006 What you were quoted and what retail is are different. RF-7s retailed at $2200/pair. There was a good explanation by Trey as to why the RF-83s were $300 more retail for the pair = $2500. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jay481985 Posted February 15, 2006 Share Posted February 15, 2006 I remember why its more expensive due to bracing and so fourth. But one should not be dissuaded due to seeing the price increase without seeing the quoted price. Its sorta like looking at an item that you want to buy and when it goes on sale you ****** it but if the sale wasn't know or exposed enough you would have never brought it. Hence losing a sale which is a shame due to mitigating circumstances...... wow I'm talking more like a lawyer everyday...... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
