5.1 HT Speaker purchase advice needed: Which Klipsch or Jamo speakers to buy?

[Johnny Canuck]

I probably should have said the RT-12d is "voiced" to match with the rest of the reference series - which is slightly different than timbre matching. It's going to help achieve a more seamless transition.

As far as 63 vs. 83....you'll have to let your ears be the judge.

Thanks DrWho for clarifying that.

As for the 63 vs. 83 I can't find a place that has them both on display so I can compare them in the most accurate manner, that is why I am hoping that a Klipsch insider or someone who has heard them both can comment on the 2 units...

They both are priced similar but have different specs, etc. suggesting

they were engineered slightly different for a purpose and that's why I

was wondering if anybody knew the differences between them so I could

make a decision as to which speaker is more suitable for my purpose...

Thanks

Hmm I went and searched a bunch of posts in the forums having to do with RF63 and RF83.

(a number of the messages included posts from Raider and DrWho).

Seems the RF63 is the sucessor to RF5's, and RF83 successor to RF7 (and RF75's) and differences among them are not unlike the predacessor's, so seems like RF83 is the way to go...

Thanks guys.

Whoops forgot to ask one last thing, which bookshelfs are the closest acoustic match to RF83:

RB81 or RB61?

Odd that neither of them seems like the RB75...

I want to possibly pickup 2 more speakers (for the rear surrounds) to make my system 7.1...

Thanks
