Have you heard the Klipsch RB-75 speaker?

When I was trying out my speakers I heard the RB-75 and RF-75 and liked them both better than the comperable B&W speakers. I liked how the Klipsh sounded for rock much better than the way the B&W sounded for rock music. But in this price range teh speaker I like the best is the Sonus Faber speakers.

I listened to the RB-75's when purchasing speakers a year ago. They seemed to lack the midrange I was looking for. I bought a pair of Paradigm Studio 40 v.3's instead. They have a much clearer mid-range, along with a satisfying higher end and bass. The RB-75's had a bit more bass. The Paradigm and Klipsch's are the same price, at least in my neck of the woods.
All due respects to Mr. Reed, I would think that the Bose and Infinity were easy to disqualify.

I bought a pair used and am very happy with them. Have a nice smooth high end, not harsh even at high listening levels, no listening fatigue, very good performers with Carver Sig Sub sub in a 13 by 14 foot room, very detailed sound, heard things never heard before, great for percussion, no harsh cymbals, very efficient

sound stage a little smaller from horns but then you do not get muddled sound from early reflections, probably more of an ideal speaker for most home listening environemnts as few people have the room for speakers that require 1 metre (3 feet) from room boundaries

previously had thiels 3.5 sounded horrid in this room, very bright, harsh at high levels, high listening fatigue, was surprised Klipsch bettered this so called audiophile speaker

Klipsch name is not associated with serious listening now as it was before, take a look (listen again) again

Valinar,

Might I ask with what amp are you powering your Studio 40's to achieve satisfaction?

Right now My new Studio 40's are boxed and ready to go back for a trade in on a couple RF7's or RB75's.
With my 120 watt Sonograph amp running through a Denon reciever the highs are out of control and a very boxy sound in the mids exist. I also auditioned the Signature 40's with a Krell 400 integrated and noticed the same boxy sound.

.........................very frustrated.

I'm not frustrated anymore.........:^)

For two channel listening my new RF7's are just fine and Home Theatre is the best.
