RC-52 with RF-63's??

Hi Guys, I am a NOOB here and to the HT world, but I have a love for good music and home entertainment. I also have a new love of Klipsch. My friend bought a pair of RF-63's and a SUB12 a few months ago and then his job was eliminated (unheard of huh) so he was in need of money more than speakers...

Re: Center Speaker Recommendations

Personally, I was faced with a similar conundrum, I have two Heresy II's (vintage 1990) with new woofers and BEC crossover networks and a pair of 5 year old Heresy II's, so I put one of the older ones in as the center channel, set my receiver for 3 speaker mode, but truthfully, in two speaker...

Re: Dark Hearted Traitor no more

Yea, I started looking on craigslist and other sources for another pair of HII's to go along with pair 1..I have even offered to trade the whole RF/RC/RW for a half good pair of HII's locally, so no shipping is involved. Don't get me wrong, I like the RF series, but I have been listening...

Re: Dark Hearted Traitor no more

Total leap of faith once I get the new crossovers from Bob Crites. I don't know if timbre will blend or not...if i doesn't the RC goes on the auction block with the RF-52's the RW-10D will hopefully blend as well... I like the idea and sound of the center channel, but not at the sake of compromising...

Re: Bose 901

I remember my first time hearing 901's..thought they had toilet paper stuffed in them...of course I came from a home w/Khorns and a Heresy center. I just figured Bose was an east Coast thing. In all fairness, speaker taste is like anything else, there are objective measurements, the industrial series...

Re: Interesting Article: "The Death of High Fidelity"

So bloody true...real High Fidelity is dying except for a few diehards. Most of this is because of the iPod thing and peoplel getting used to listening to sampled music, coupled with the drive by some major manufacturers to make things house friendly, eg tiny speakers and a subwoofer, like the Bose Acoustimass...

Dark Hearted Traitor no more

It finally happened, I had a Klipsch breakdown, a crossover died in my Heresy II's, and I had to call Bob Crites and son in for emergency. Pound for pound, when it comes to the bottom line, the Heresy II's do kick the boo-boo out of my RF-52's/RC-52/RW10D. When Bob sends me the new crossovers...

Re: P39 or Jubilee's---------HELP!!!!

Ya know the Palladium may have been driven by Marketing, pushing Engineering to make something more competitve in the high end speaker market. Honestly, I know I am a dark hearted traitor, but I really like my RF stuff way better than my Hesesy II's, which just suffered a crossover failure after...

Re: P39 or Jubilee's---------HELP!!!!

I agree...I get more joy out of three hours of Muay Thai than I get out of any speaker. My mom has 1962 KHorns, I own a new RF/RC/RW system, I like it better than my Heresy II's, regardless a speaker system to faithfully reproduce movie and music soundtracks, which it does. full stop. It neither...

Re: Bose 901

I think alot of this boils down to personal taste, for xmas I got a friend a pair of Promedia 2.1's, he is a gamer, these are gamer speakers. Prior to that he had virtually nothing. Personally, I have both RF-52's/RC-52 a pair of Heresy II's and I am now shopping for a subwoofer, probably...
