    To pre- amp or not?

    Hi All! I'm an idiot when it comes to audio, so need some help please. I bought a set of Klipsch RF62ii's recently, and find them a bit bright to my liking (should have listened to the guidance the old schoolers gave me, but alas I'm now stuck with them for a while). I've tried 3 amps on these...

    ANYONE WITH KLIPSCH RF-62ii's IN CAPE TOWN ?? Or that can advise on their sound

    Thanks to everyone for the help and input !! Got the Klipsch's today. Yes, they are a bit bright (not harsh), but not anything to really complain about. They have a wide soundstage, and the best bass I've heard of any of the speakers I listened to. My Polk's measured 97 dB nominal/102dB peak...

    ANYONE WITH KLIPSCH RF-62ii's IN CAPE TOWN ?? Or that can advise on their sound

    Well, I'm tired of falling around, and with my miniscule budget decided to get a pair of the 62's based on the following reviews of the older 62 models. (Hope I'm not going to burst out in tears when they arrive tomorrow, and I listen to them the first time !!)...

    Thanks The RF-28's I listened to sounded very crappy, so think the 26's can't be better.

    ANYONE WITH KLIPSCH RF-62ii's IN CAPE TOWN ?? Or that can advise on their sound

    I've got a set of Polk's. They are nice, but just not loud enough. No one around the C.T. area has the bigger Polk's to listen to, and the bigger Polk's don't get good reviews. Apparently SVS Prime's would have been a good alternative, but once again we're in S.A...

    ANYONE WITH KLIPSCH RF-62ii's IN CAPE TOWN ?? Or that can advise on their sound

    Hi All ! I've been looking around for a set of speakers that can do seriously loud, but also have good quality sound. I've listened to Paradigm, Monitor Audio, Boston, Mission, Kef, B&W, Dali, JBL (PA), Behringer (PA), Adam (Studio), KRK, and the Klipsch RF28.  The Klipsch RF28's were not...

    HELP WITH SPEAKER UPGRADE

    Hi Guys ! I'm hoping that someone will be able to assist me with my choice of speaker upgrade. I currently have Polk RTI-8's driven by a Marantz (110 watt/ch) receiver.

    Vintage SANSUI vs YAMAHA amplifier - sound quality ??

    Did play around with the Yamaha a bit last night. When the "CD-direct" button is used, it does not allow the bass and treble to be set. Sounds better without it, but still not to my liking. (not full and rounded). Was thinking of buying a Marantz SR-7500. What do you guys think, any good ?
