erdric Posted September 10, 2007 Share Posted September 10, 2007 Does anyone have any experience driving Klipsch with Sherwood Newcastle? I've been reading the specs on the upcoming R-972 and I think it has a lot of potential. I'd like to add it to my short list along with the Denon 3808ci and the Pioneer Elite VSX-92TXH but I'm not sure how SN matches up with Klipsch. Unfortunately, there doesn't seem to be any SN dealers in my area so I can't go and check it out in person very easily. Is the SN brand considered bright, warm, neutral? I've never heard a SN receiver, or their low-end Sherwood line. http://www.avsforum.com/avs-vb/showthread.php?t=785388 The link is old and some specs have changed but: http://www.audioholics.com/news/trade-show-coverage/2007-consumer-electronics-show-ces/sherwood-newcastle-r-972-hdmi-1-3-receiver Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
erdric Posted September 11, 2007 Author Share Posted September 11, 2007 I guess I can take the lack of replies as a sign that few people use S/N with Klipsch. That in and of itself may be an answer to my question. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Arky Posted September 11, 2007 Share Posted September 11, 2007 I don't know anything of their receivers, but I believe the Outlaw Audio processor was built off the S/N processor platform. I have an Outlaw 990 & like it very much. My spkr's are listed below. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
erdric Posted September 13, 2007 Author Share Posted September 13, 2007 Good to know. I'll check the Outlaw out. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
papashawn Posted September 13, 2007 Share Posted September 13, 2007 I have the outlaw 990 and their 5 channel amp, the 7500. They sound awesome with my forte II's and academy. I don't think you'll be disappointed. Their prices are very good since they are a direct to consumer company. The 990 actually had a price drop recently, even more reason to take a look!
