kenratboy Posted December 28, 2001 Share Posted December 28, 2001 I just purchased the new Sound & Vision Buyers Guide 2002 and was pleasantly shocked when I saw the Klipsch ad inside. The ad is 8 full pages, or 16 pages front and back! It is solely about the Reference series and has pictures and articles about all of the speakers. It is very well done. It must have cost a small fortune to put that in. Not only that, the magazine is a buyers guide (I would strongly suggest that all of you at least look at it, it has info for 6,000 products and best of all, contact info for a few hundred companies.) and it will be on the shelves until March 19th. Anyway, Klipsch is either doing extremely well or this is there last-ditch effort to stay afloat. But with their two new facilities being build, probably the first one. Kenneth.

boomer9911 Posted December 28, 2001 Share Posted December 28, 2001 So did they save one of those eight or sixteen pages for the Heritage line, just curious. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mobile homeless Posted December 28, 2001 Share Posted December 28, 2001 They could have done a single page ad and FINISHED the Heritage line! kh Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Big Bean Posted December 28, 2001 Share Posted December 28, 2001 I'm afraid the Heritage line probably is FINISHED. BB This message has been edited by Big Bean on 12-28-2001 at 02:07 PM Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheEAR Posted December 29, 2001 Share Posted December 29, 2001 Yep nice ad.I have the RF-7's,RC-7 and RF-5's plus RB-5's and now RB-3's! LOL Yes I like both the sound and the look of the Reference line.The price is mild on the wallet and the sound powerful Klipsch style. The ONLY poroblem so far are the very fragile copper colored aluminium/ceramic cones.I have a tiny dent(not a hole,just a 0.5mm dent)on my lower RF-7 woofer. Damn besides that its all good TheEAR(s) Now theears Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Deang Posted December 29, 2001 Share Posted December 29, 2001 hey ears - If it bothers you that much why don't you just replace the driver? how do the RB3's compare to the RB5's? ------------------ deanG Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheEAR Posted December 30, 2001 Share Posted December 30, 2001 Why dont I replace the RF-7 woofer? BECAUSE IT COSTS MONEY AND IT DOES NOT COST A DOLLAR Besides its a tiny dent,most would not even bother. Even with all my gear I am a cheap batard and I dont like buying things twice. LOL The RB-5 have more punch and more bass.Besides both are very similar.And the RB-3's are less afected by the room agins,the large port on the RB-5's makes them a bit harder to postition well. The RB-3's cant hit you like the RB-5's and I run thenm cut a 80Hz.I dont want to damage the mid-bass at higher SPL. Very good quality speakers considering the price.

Guest BobG Posted January 4, 2002 Share Posted January 4, 2002 Haven't been there lately to see if it's still up, but the biggest Klipsch ad I ever saw was a 3 story tall sign on the side of a high rise office building in Taipei, Taiwan. A truly awesome sight to this Klipschboy. The 'ad' in the Sound & Vision Buyer's Guide is a reprint of the new Reference literature. Glad you liked it.
