Official Klipsch Owners Thread


Well, I didn't see one yet, and didn't see a Manufacturers section on here, so I figured I'd start a Klipsch owners thread. I own F2's, C2 center, and S1 surrounds. I have a Sub 12, and a RW10 for the lows! I also have a pair of B2's for rear surrounds, but my current house does not have enough room for 7.2, so......... what about you?

Re: Official Klipsch Owners Thread


I have a pair of RF-35's for mains, and an RC-35 center. VERY happy with them. The rest of my gear is Polk, but I'm currently investigating options for moving to an all-Klipsch setup. (and an SVS sub, most likely)

4 Epic CF-4's and 1 KV-4 center speaker. See my avatar pic. It's a close up of one of the CF4's with dual SDX15 subwoofers next to it.

In my living room, I have 2 1992 khorns, 4 kg2.5, 1 rc35, 1 kv3, 2 rs35. The khorns are phenomenal for virtually any program music. I absolutley adore the sound of these speakers.

Good luck to all,

Robert

Chorus II and Heresy I.

Maybe one of these days I'll land me a pair of Jubilee mains...

I'm running Klipsch speakers and couldn't be happier!!

Mains: Forte II's
Center: KG 1.2 (x2)
Surrounds: KG 1's
Sub: SW-12

A Klipsch Academy is def. on the "to buy" list. But, as it sets now it sounds awesome!!

I think I'm a customer for life now!

I use 5.2's for mains and surrounds with a 4.2 as a center. Sounds great.
Nice to see another classic KG fan out there.

Re: Official Klipsch Owners Thread


HT/Music setup:

RF-52, RC-52, RB-5 (rear surrounds), and SVS PC12-NSD subwoofer. The RB-5s were my original fronts. I set the RF-52s to small on my AVR so both LFE and under 80Hz goes to the PC12-NSD. To my ears, the RF-52 mid/upper bass sounds much more crisp configured this way. I'm wondering how others have setup their systems.

Hello fellow Klipschers!

I have the RF-7s as mains, RC-7 as center, and RS-7s and surrounds. No subwoofer as of yet but I'm working on it. Either the SVS PB13-Ultra or the JL Audio Fathom f113 should seal the deal.

Re: Official Klipsch Owners Thread


Hi Gang...It's always fun looking at Mr. Carlton's collection. :-)

I have RF-7s/RC-7/RF-3s/RS-7s/RB-75s and RSW-12 up front with an RSW 15 behind me and have enjoyed this system for almost 7 years.

In the Bedroom we have RB-75s/RC-7/RS-3s with a Phase Audio sub. I also have a Workout room with Klipsch KLF 20s/KLF-C7/RS-3s and KSW 12 subwoofer. All of my Home Theaters are driven with Denon AVRs which I have been extremely happy with.

Re: Official Klipsch Owners Thread


I have owned Heresy II's, why i sold them I'll never know.

I'm considering Khorns for a seperate listening room. The room is 14' wide by 12' 6" deep and 9' ceilings.

What do you think, is this too much speaker for this size room?


Last edited by gnatnoop; 03-22-09 at 04:27 PM.. Reason: clarify considering 2 khorns, not khorn singular

I'm a Klipsch owner again (after a lapse of 25 years).

Just had Khorns delivered last week, driving with a Jolida integrated. Pulling out all the CD's again!

I own a pair of B3's now it's not much i'd call the classic klipsch but they sound nice to me. I use them as rear surrounds in my HT.

Re: Official Klipsch Owners Thread


I currently use: B3 fronts, C3 center, Quintet III's (x4 surrounds), Sub-12 (modified). They are nice sounding speakers, but I will be upgrading in the near future and I'll most likely stay with Klipsch.

Re: Official Klipsch Owners Thread


I've have Klipsch speakers since the mid 80s. I started with a pair of KG4's then added another pair for Dolby surround, then eventually a pair of Kg2 for a 5.1 system with three Kg4 up front and the Kg2 in the rear.

I updated the surrounds to RS-3 front and rear (Yamaha RX-V2095 had front effects channels). I later added a KV3 center and regrettably sold one pair of Kg4s. I purchased an SW8 sub for upper bass and added a custom-made ACI Saturn compound 2-12" subwoofer.

I'm currently running the 7.1 Klipsch system using the Kg4s as mains, the KV3 as center (occasionally changing it out to a KLF-C7 when the mood hits me), RS-3 front effects and rear surrounds, SW8 sub for upper LF and ACI Saturn compound subwoofer for lowest freq. I have no intention of ever selling the Klipsch'.
