| Klipsch KLF-20 vs. RF-7 speakers Crossovers are the key to moving these speakers to another level... A friend and myself decided one week to take an already great pair of mint RF3's using Dual 8's and a horn tweet/mid, we built a real serious pair of outboard crossovers eliminati... | |
| Where are the full-function preamps? Best one available today at the cheapest price, Meaning it has fully adjustable MC impeadance stage with several dip switch settings, Plus MM stage, Remote control, All tube including the power supply, and auxilary inputs, using all high quality p... | |
| "Integrated Amp" Do I dare go there?????? Buy a Mcintosh 6900, 5 band eq, and quality power and pre that some seperates can't touch honestly, super smooth tube like sound with the power of a big krell. | |
| Power Conditioner for your amplifier? Dedicated line from the wall, regardless what people have experienced improvement wise with these super pricey conditioners its a very slim chance the return is 90% the performance of a guaranteed return with a dedicated heavy gauge power line str... | |
| Avantagrde UNO w/ CJ Premier 8 Oh yeah the Thor amps are sweet definatley, I have heard them on Coincidence another hi efficiency around 10,000 speaker, but they are not nearly as efficient as the Avantgardes, I think they are around 97 db but very nice with Thor, I really like... | |
| Klipsch KLF-20 vs. RF-7 speakers I suggest a mcintosh intergrated amp with tone controls, the best solid state and bass boost that works with these speakers hands down. Like the MC 6500 or 6900 even better with the 5 band eq to tame the mid's and up the bass slightly on these spe... | |
| Speaker Positioning Forgot to mention 7 ft apart might be a bit much considering your only sitting 7 ft away, its basically like wearing headphones at that distance, I would make them about 5 ft or 6 ft apart instead which will help center the image more already and ... | |
| Speaker Positioning Yikes that is small... Gonna be some very intricate testing.. Start with them about 1" Toed in, for example the back corner of the speaker lets say is 11" from the sidewall, make the front corners 12"... If this is fairly 3 dimensional but not str... | |
| Avantagrde UNO w/ CJ Premier 8 Power is not an issue at all, however your gain could be very high with the preamp, and in turn with noisey tubes will show you this, you might not get to high on the dial either, I heard the Duo's put with a 40 watt intergrated solid state and it... | |
| OK...ONE LAST SPEAKER QUESTION cash cash 2bigears, you can get 2 pretty cheap 4 foot by 2 foot traps that are 4" thick from Gikacoustics.com.. they are basic but most effective, but if not done up right very ugly. They are cheap though and use the whole corning fiberglass formula and the... | |
| OK...ONE LAST SPEAKER QUESTION cash cash 2bigears, This is long and my journey,Room treatment advances everything with these speakers or any, I just finally got to put bass traps hanging over them last week, HUGE difference with highs that made the tweeter nearly dissapear, now yes they ... | |
| Zu speaker owners - do you have any gain issues? Depending on the volume you listen at, yes normal volume on your knob might be a bit loud. These speakers sound loud.. The real issue is at a lower volume the front drivers will be a bit more than the bass driver on the back unless you have a huge... | |
| Online for a variety of acoustic room treatments? Boa2, cool idea, I guess they can't hurt! thanks | |
| Bi-amping Question? Yeah very wrong, you can infact run Passive crossover bi-amping by simply dumping the jumpers between your 2 sets of binding posts on each speaker... You will still have a dedicated crossover on each section don't worry.. Also, one of the real ben... | |
| Speakers for metal, hard rock ... also SS amp Mcintosh Amps with horns or most speakers recommended for rock will definatley render the better results over most other amps without a lot of screwing around.. test it trust it. |
