banasikdrummer Posted April 4, 2007 Share Posted April 4, 2007 Well Alex and I "might" have to take a Klipsch road trip sometime... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Arky Posted April 4, 2007 Share Posted April 4, 2007 On the way home, after listening to jon and I discuss speaker/klipsch/forum stuff for a pretty brief period, she says, "Alex, you better not be an old guy sitting on that forum talking about your speakers." No reply.... That's damn funny. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jay481985 Posted April 15, 2007 Share Posted April 15, 2007 is that dorm room? [] I have rf-83 in mine! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
InVeNtOr Posted April 15, 2007 Share Posted April 15, 2007 arky, which speakers are you trading in and why? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Arky Posted April 16, 2007 Share Posted April 16, 2007 arky, which speakers are you trading in and why? I sold my rf-7's to masterxela. It was sort of a pay it forward thing, common to this forum. Joshnich gave me a Marantz 2245 a couple of months ago, which is at the tech getting checked out. I gave Alex a really good deal as these had Dean's excellent crossover upgrades in them. I usually just keep my audio equipment but figured what the heck on this one. As much as I loved the 7's, I had moved them out of the main system in favor of heritage. I have cornwalls & cornscalas ( lascala mids with cornwall bass). You can search that if interested. I will probably add lascalas or save up for Jubilees. I'm in my 40's now & find my ears prefer the crisp detailed mids heritage bring over the more in your face of reference. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

masterxela Posted April 16, 2007 Author Share Posted April 16, 2007 It is a dorm room Gotta love the looks from first time guests, followed by the expressions when I turn them on, and the same question every time, (why? and where do you get all this money?) or the front desk receptionist when I hauled them in, the classic head shake. First day I had them hooked up, I downloaded a music alarm clock on my computer than allows you to play any song to wake up to. Room mate almost fell off the top bunk, Megadeth, Devils Island, at 100db, 9:30 am. Can't decide what to buy after arky's matching center- sub, or emotiva mps-1... Have pictures of your 83's somewhere? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

el jopez Posted April 16, 2007 Share Posted April 16, 2007 ^ Boy, wasn't that an exciting day for all of us! I can't wait to have my system modded, and a beefier amp added. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gnfanatic Posted April 17, 2007 Share Posted April 17, 2007 May I ask what the upgraded crossovers do?? Do you buy new crossovers or do you modify your own? thanks! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Arky Posted April 17, 2007 Share Posted April 17, 2007 Basically the existing network is redone with better parts. Well worth the money. You can search "rf-7 crossover upgrade" & " deang crossover upgrade" for hours of detailed reading. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
InVeNtOr Posted April 19, 2007 Share Posted April 19, 2007 the only problem is getting dean to get back with you. arky, i guess you can't upgrade the 10.5's because i have even tried to pm and e mail him, and i still haven't heard from him Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Arky Posted April 19, 2007 Share Posted April 19, 2007 Go to 2 channel " Dean can you upgrade my KSF networks? " He will answer. I know he has a lot going on right now & he is terrible with email but he's a good guy. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Congrats on the RF-7s purchase, Master - you will enjoy them for many years to come. Arky, your impressions about modded 7's vs. heritage are spot on for mine - and yes, I'm also in my 40s now. As much as I loved my Dean modded 7s, I love living in the midrange now. One more final upgrade from "Mr. Klappenberger" (oops - I said the name), and I'm done for awhile in Heritage land. That is until five or ten years down the road, and then yes, even I will probably join the Jubilee train. Carl. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Arky Posted April 19, 2007 Share Posted April 19, 2007 Hi Carl. If you see a fair deal on lascalas in St. Louie land would you please shout at me. No hurry & they don't have to be pristine but no AL networks. I'm 6 hrs away. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
