Merscruggs Posted April 6, 2006 Share Posted April 6, 2006 I've not posted here in a year or so but I stop by from time to time to see what the world of Klipsch is up to. I recently got a Jolida JD801A and have been searching around for just the right speakers for it. Popped into a local dealer on my way home from work today and saw they were closing out their last couple of pairs of RF-5's [all the RF-7's were already gone]. $700 later, a new pair of cherry RF-5's were in the back of my pick-up on their way to meet their new amp! I've not hooked everything up yet but should have everything going by Saturday. This system will be for 2 channel music playing vinyl, mostly classical and acoustic. No point to this post really, I just felt like bragging a bit to people who would understand the joy of a new pair of Klipsch speakers! If I posted this over at AA or AC, I'd just get a hundred people telling me what I should have bought. Personally, between you and I, I think I made the right choice!

www.records Posted April 6, 2006 Share Posted April 6, 2006 Congrats scruggs. I think you made a heck of a deal. Let me know how you like them after mating them with you 801A. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jt1stcav Posted April 6, 2006 Share Posted April 6, 2006 Nothing wrong with braggin'! I'm sure you made the right choice...IMO all Klipsch loudspeakers sound great with tube amplification, so looks like your ears will be in for a treat this weekend. Enjoy!

DrWho Posted April 7, 2006 Share Posted April 7, 2006 I actually prefer the RF-5's over the RF-7's too so don't go getting into buyer's remorse either...that is a sweet deal you got there. Be sure to come back and share your impressions after you get it all hooked up. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SilverSport Posted April 7, 2006 Share Posted April 7, 2006 ...since I was once quoted the sale price of $699 for a pair of Cherry RF-35s...I would say $700 for a pair of Cherry RF-5s was a steal...great catch! Bill Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MarkBK Posted April 7, 2006 Share Posted April 7, 2006 Congrats on the RF5's - what a great deal! Let us know how you like them - I've had mine for 2years and absolutley love the sound they deliver - tube or the right SS. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
