I still have a pair of my beloved TC50s. Great speakers but can definitely be improved upon. Try to get a pair of Kinergetics subwoofers (I had the BSC200) which will do wonders for the low end. The Edison Price binding posts are also a major improvement. I eventually upgraded to the Alon IIs but they cost 4 times as much as the TC60s. |
@joekras2785 , Forget Magneplanar. You do not have the right amp for them. What you do have the right amp for is the Klipsch RF7 III. These speakers are real sleepers. Their power and presence are remarkable at their price point and because they are designed to have controlled dispersion, room acoustics will be less of a problem. Remember, the room is 1/2 of the loudspeaker. With these speakers it is 1/3rd. People tend to write Klipsch off because of their "AMF" years. They are now back in force with some great designs at prices people can afford. Paul would be very pleased. |
Owned TC 50s in the 90s, loved them. Did surgery on the crossover by simply upgrading the caps and the wire. They jumped considerably in performance, I mean REALLY jumped. So you can keep them, upgrade them and continue to love them. Otherwise, I'd consider a pair of ATC SCM 20s for a meaningful upgrade. The ATCs can also be pushed much harder than the TC 60s which tended to have fragile tweeters. Best of luck in your quest. |
