Klipsch vs Maggies decisions

gentlemen, there is one factorbeing overlooked. the klipsch has a box as an enclosure for its drivers. an experienced ear will "hear" the box. it is sometimes referred to as cabinet coloration.

it can be intrusive, depending upon the design of the speaker.

it is a consideration when selecting a speaker.

Tm093,

Congrats on the Klipsch purchase! Get a decent, doesn't have to be high dollar, tube amp and you'll be lovin' life. The RF series already have the nicer titanium diaphrams, so all you need to do to your RF's are to upgrade the stock crossover. Upgrading the crossover, pretty easy and doesn't cost much, will take your RF's to another level.

I love my Klipsch paired with my Eico hf-81 intergated tube amp. It cost me $325 and it just amazing paired Klipsch.

Funny thing for me, is that I've sold both brands over the years. I know what both can do mostly. I'd be trying to see what kinda sound I could get from some modded Klipsch's with tubes over the Maggies though! (lol). I know, I know...Don't say it. I just don't care for the lack of dynamics and power on the Maggies. Yeah, very very clear, detailed, and pretty. But the horns will rock, and can be made to sound good with the right setup...and ya can do HT wit'em! I might break the Maggies...
