    Upgrading from Sub 12 to RT-10D? or should I get something else?

    I just bought a new system, an am upgrading from the klipsch quintet SL's to the klipsch RF-82's, RC-52, RS-42's. I currently have a Synergy SUB 12, it does it's job, but I'm a bass head and want a good sub to match my new reference speakers. I found the RT-10D for 799.99 online and am debating upgrading to it, anyone have feedback on whether this is a good sub, and if it's worth the upgrade. Other suggestions are welcomed my budget is around 800 for a sub. I'd like to stay with Klipsch if I can.

     
    Cheers,


    Trevor

    You should enjoy the RT-10D. I am concerned about the RC-52, however. The RC-62 is a sonic match to the RF-82, and doesn't really cost that much more.  IMHO, you should consider the RC-62.

    I was also curious as to how the RT-10 sounds myself. Anyone have some comparisons?

     I finally got my RT-10D today and it sure blows my SUB12 away, it's much deeper, you can actually feel the bass and the control panel is much better.

    Cool. That is a great price on that sub. Does the RT play the low end stuff without sacrificing db's?
