darylomer12 Posted June 14, 2007 Share Posted June 14, 2007 After about two years of trying convince my wife that we NEEDED RF-7's, she finally caved. She gave me the green light and now I can't find any in black or cherry!! My RC-7 is black, so I prefer black towers. However, I would settle for cherry if I had to. Does anyone know if Klipsch will be making more of the RF-7's? I bet if they made 10,000 more, they would be gone in a month or so. Thats how good they are. I tried the RB -75's, and they didn't seem to fill up my room like my RF-3's do. They sounded good, but not good enough to pull the trigger. Especially now that I have my heart set on the big dogs!![] Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I actually email him last night to get a shipping quote and I think I will look around for a few more days to see if I can find some leads on a black pair with cheaper shipping. If I can find shipping under $250.00, I would probably do it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
oldbuckster Posted June 15, 2007 Share Posted June 15, 2007 what about looking at the Heritage line of fine speakers.................... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jacksonbart Posted June 15, 2007 Share Posted June 15, 2007 Sure you should consider Heritage or the new RF series if you want a matching center channel. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dkp Posted June 15, 2007 Share Posted June 15, 2007 There's a pair for sale right now on the forum for $1,000. Look at the thread in, "General," by Nicholt. "Mountain of gear fs" or something like that... David Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You might want to ask Amy Unger. Klipsch is always putting them on Ebay. Amy has put a number of pairs on ebay over the past few months. However, I believe that most, if not all, were Maple. Priced at $999 plus shipping, if memory serves. -David Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
darylomer12 Posted June 15, 2007 Author Share Posted June 15, 2007 Ok, I am starting to have second thoughts.Everyone I have spoke to, said they are not willing to ship. I have contacted all of the seller on Ebay, and they are all quoting me around $300.00 for shipping!! Am I upgrading the right speakers? If you had my setup, and you had $1200-1300 burning a hole in your pocket, what would you upgrade? And will my Denon give the RF-7's enough fuel to open up? How about a RSW-15? Oh, decisions, decisions decisions. Thanks for all of your help. I can't thank you all enough.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dkp Posted June 15, 2007 Share Posted June 15, 2007 darylomer-I would suggest stopping by a number of different audio shops and give a listen to various gear. Your local Klipsch dealer should at least have the RF-83s in stock and hopefully some Heritage as well. (The new Cornwall IIIs sound great and the Heresy IIIs sound better). I don't think you would ever regret taking more time to shop around and then come to the best decision. If you rush it, you may get it right, but part of the enjoyment of this hobby is the thrill of the chase... (kinda like dating, eh?) -David Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
darylomer12 Posted June 15, 2007 Author Share Posted June 15, 2007 If only there were some Audio store in my area. The only store within a 200 mile radius that carries Klipsch is BestBuy. And they only sell the synergy series. I have a local dealer in my area, but he only carries the new in-wall speakers now. I haven't given up just yet. I think I might have found some black RF-7's. Dang, sometimes I wish I lived in another state. Washington State is probably the worst place to live if you love Klipsch. I don't even have anywhere to go to listen to Heritage. Oh well, at least I have one thing on my side....Time Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dkp Posted June 15, 2007 Share Posted June 15, 2007 I should clarify my statement about the Heresy IIIs. I meant that they sounded better than the HII, not better than the Cornwall IIIs. Best of luck on your search. EDIT: Check out this link. There are a few on there that may be of interest to you. http://seattle.craigslist.org/search/sss?query=klipsch Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rsp1068 Posted June 16, 2007 Share Posted June 16, 2007 I believe you refered to liking the 3's, if you did, grab the 7's and you won't look back as the 7's are just a whole lot more of it............. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
darylomer12 Posted June 16, 2007 Author Share Posted June 16, 2007 Well, I pulled the trigger on a brand spankin new pair of black RF-7's! I paid a fair price considering they were black, which is what I wanted. They were purchased from an authorized online dealer, so I got the warranty( not that I will ever need it). Anyway, thank you all so much for your input and suggestions. This forum truely the best.[H] Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
