Center Channel Confusion

[GC456]

I know the RC-64 has 2 extra woofers and a larger tweeter, but what is the real advantage over the RC-62?

I just don't get it. The RC-62 is ported in the front and

drops to 57Hz compared to the RC-64's 62Hz.

And what is the difference between "Cerametallic woofers" and "High-output Cerametallic woofers"

Does the 64 have more

"punch" because they are "High-output" or because of the extra woofers?

Why isn't the 64 ported to have a similar or better range than the 62?

Has anyone been able to do a side by side comparison?

Thanks

GC,

I am pretty sure the RC-64 will have a better crossover, in addition to a better tweeter than the 62. I will admit this is theorizing, as I have not heard either product yet. I will say this, though: if Klipsch holds to their tradition of manufacturing the Reference top-of-the-line, the -64 will benefit from these (and other factors I am sure Trey or BobG can fill us in on) to create a sound significantly better than the next step down, IMHO. I say this from the experience of listening to the RC-35 versus the RC-7, where there were significant differences that made purchasing the RC-7 a justifiable upgrade from the RC-35.
