All,
A just a followup on my RC62 issue. Changing the XO to 60 helped but the issue is still present, replaced the cable and that did not fix. I did another test with music, running in 2.0, the other night. I took the cable from my from my RF82 and plugged it into the RC62 so the the RC62 was playing the left channel. I got pretty close to the speaker and listend, then moved the cable over to the RF82 and listened. I moved the left channel cable back and forth between the RC62 and RF82 several times to compare. The RC62 sounded muffled and subdued, through the tweeter, compared to the RF82. The RF82 was very clear and crisp, and the RC62 just sounded held back and lacked detail and clarity. I was even able to get the RC62 to reproduce the tine can sound on a song. I tested the same part of the song that sounded" tin can" like on the RC62 through the RF82 and the RF82 did not have the tin can sound issue at all.
I called klipsch tech support and the tech said that he thought my tweeter was bad. He suggested that my AVR killed it because it under powered the speaker.I was taken back by this. My AVR is a Denon AVR X2100W. I have been told that Klipsch speakers are so efficent that most AVR's will power them without issue. The Klipsch tech said that I need to get an amplifier to avoid this issue in the future. What are all of your thoughts on this? Do you all think the tweeter is bad? Is my AVR causing the issue? I would think that my other speakers would also have issues if this were the case.
