Alright guys, I have a friend who I turned on to the Mits WS and now he wants a good surround system and he's 100% HT. He said this is what the online dealer rec'd:
Klipsch Reference II system www.klipsch.com
RF-3II fronts 450
RC-3II center 300
RS-3II dipoles 400
Yamaha RXV2200 400
http://www.yamaha.com/yec/products/w...w/rx-v2200.htm
It looks like a very nice bundle for 1550. He didn't like the subs there, so I rattled off the SVS, HSU, Adire Audio, and Sony Sawm40 recs. He's never heard of any of them
.
He wants to know if he can get a better system for his money off the net. Well, I looked up his system on the net, b/c I don't know Klipsch, but I was kind of shocked
. It appears to be a great deal. Any Klipsch owners want to chime in? Please. Is that a good matching receiver? Should he be looking at Onkyo (can get at cost) or HK (Denon is not an option right now)? Is this line of speakers getting updated? What's up, does Klipsch have ridiculous list prices? What are the regrets by you Klipsch owners?
I rec'd a Paradigm Reference system (my biased system) or a Monitor Audio silver system, but told him they would run about 300-600 over his speaker prices now. He said as long as it was good enough for HT he didn't care. Should I mention the Divas? Is the Klipsch CC a good performer? Any advice on helping him would be much appreciated. I hate giving bad advice, so I don't want to guess on the performance of these speakers. Thanks a lot guys. BTW I am going to take credit for all your advice
