Wow, Channa, not sure how I ever managed to miss this video! Your enthusiasm for these towers is propelling, as though you are sucking us all in to this elevated hype! (That’s a good thing)! I am in the market for a set of towers, and your presentation has sold me! Thank you!
Hi Charles!! These things are INSANE!! I wish I had them hooked up right now but I have other speakers in for review. If you are going to pick these up contact my Klipsch dealer Cory: bit.ly/TDPHTFB He will get you setup right!
Digging all the video effects, transitions and overlays. Great job man! My dream setup is a Klipsch Reference 5.2.2 setup. Been saving for it
Thanks man! Trying to step up my game! 5.2.2 is gonna sound great!
Great review, amazing speakers bro, the RF7 iii is a dream, unfortunately here in Brazil is very expensive, but I have the klipsch RF 82ii connected in my Marantz, for now is great.
Great video, I've been considering upgrading from the RP-440C and the RP-280F's to the RF-7 III's and RC-64. My wife is not really interested in spending more money on speakers right now but after this video, my interest is reignited! Cross your fingers for me!
Good luck man!! Make sure you have the room as these speakers are quite big! Also, if you’re in the US, contact my dealer Cory for the most updated pricing - bit.ly/TDPHTFB
My dream speakers haha. I so want a pair 😂 congrats Channa! This is what i want as my fronts and move my 160ms to the rear. You always get me excited haha. I cant wait to see more videos
Lol!! Awesome man!
I didn't get the impression you were very impressed with them Channa. LOL. Told ya you they were amazing speakers. And just think, you might be losing some amount of bass because they aren't getting a lot of boundary gain with the rear of the speakers not being closer to a wall. Great video as always. Love the enthusiasm.
Youthman I think he likes em!! LoL, it's hard not to smile when listening to these monsters.
LOL! Klipsch did a good job with these puppies!! Yeah, placement sucks, so I'm glad I'm getting the amount of bass that I'm currently getting from these. The wife and I were listening to that Cardi B album, and that thing BUUUUMPS!!!
Youth man and techno dad I would like both of your options. If you had the choice to run you front left and right for a 7.2.4 denon avrx -3700 with a emotiva epa gen 3 powering my front stage, what you chose to for your front left and right setup. A pair of Klipsch rf-7iii or pair of Hersey IV.. This set up is for strictly movie theater watching. What would you choose and why? Any additional info you want about my space, set up, or listening position I’d be happy to provide. Thanks
Gilding the Lily that's a first. Lol. Great vid!
You went kinda hard on the RP-280Fs. On your review on the 280s you said they're awesome sounding and amazing. You totally did a 180 degree turn on them. Frankly I think they're great speakers and much improved from their predecessors.
Hi David!! Not really, I still love the RP-280Fs, and if I think they are awesome, that just means the RF-7 IIIs are more awesome! Comparing a $600 speaker to an $1,800 isn't really fair, but that's what people in the Klipsch FB group wanted me to do. Since some of them are toying with the idea of upgrading. Don't forget, I'm pushing 160 wpc into the 280Fs, and I'm also listening at very loud levels...somewhere in the 99 - 106 db range is where you'll hear slight differences in speakers. I wasn't knocking the 280F, just stating the difference between that and a speaker that was designed to be the flagship of Klipsch's line.
Was thinking the exact same thing..i dont recall a single comment about the 280 f's brightness issues which in my oppinion def exist..finally some truth about the sound of the 280s..a bit late but hey
Its because he's a very biased reviewer and I guess that's fine since all sound and speaker thing is a very subjective thing. If you compare Forte III to RF 7 III you will probably get the same effect.
Man, that's it. I have to have these now lol. I can't believe how much they dwarf my 280f! Wow.
Eric! These things are huge!! I thought I might have to move my TV stand, but looks like I didn't have to.
Dude this is a great review, Thank you. I currently have 280f's and am looking to get into either Forte III's or the RF-7 III's. This review may have leaning with the RF-7's right now
Thank you, Andrew! I was in the same position, 280Fs to RF7IIIs. I had the Forte III's for a few weeks and they are great speakers but totally different than the RF7IIIs. If you're looking for a more well rounded speaker for different types of content, music, movies, TV, and video games, I would go with the RF7IIIs. Make sure you have room as they are big!
It's interesting because multiple reviews have said the 280 F speakers have a flat treble response and were not overly bright. Audioholics provided detailed measurements to support this. You are the first reviewer I have read who said they are overly bright.
Just got these in my home.... I didn’t know these were HUGE! Monsters!!
Oh yeah! You didn’t check the dimensions first??
I did...lol... but nothing like seeing them in person. Just how you said... big...beautiful
I have a pair of the 280’s and I’ve noticed the brightness at higher volumes, wonder if Klipsch’s new tweet it’s putting into the 8000 series will be able to be bought and subbed out on my 280’s.
i
love all of your videos and i am intersested in the subwoofer and I like quality and amazing sound 🔊 as your in the movies
Lol norah jones music lowkey dope af.. “Sunride” and “Don’t know why” got hella bass!! XD sometimes klipsch speakers feel like they’re all tweeter! 👂🏻💥! Good to know these have bass!
Thanks for your video. How would you compare the RF 7 III vs the Heresy IV speakers from Klipsch. Also have you tied the SVS ultra towers? how would you compare the RF 7 III's to the SVS ultra towers?
1) Are they worth changing from Rp 280fs to the Rf 7 111, I've had my rp 280s for almost 5yrs in march 2022. I love my sound with the setup driving them 250 watts biamped. Thxs
Hi TechnoD, thanks for the informative videos. With the high sensitively of the RF7 III, is a strong AVR good enough to run them? Would your Denon 6700h do a good enough job?
Welcome to the RF-7 club bro. They are great speakers, I know because I'm a proud owner.
Nice man! Well, I don't own them...they are just in for review! Thanks to Cory of course!
Wow some nice speakers great job techno dad
Thanks!
MOVING ON UP!
Hi Techno Dad. Thank you for your review! I'm late to the game interested in these RF 7 III's!! I would like to pair these with Emotiva's XPA-DR3 ( 450W CONTINUOUS & PEAK ). Is this a good & SAFE match for the speakers at 250 CONTINUOUS? Or, would an amp at 250-275w CONTINUOUS be better? I have the RP-504C center channel ( 150 CONTINUOUS/ 400PEAK ) Is this safe to match as well?
Could you elaborate on the "Breaking in" of new speakers. I didn't know that was a thing.
Have been eyeballing the RF-7 III's for for while and finally pulled the trigger. Coming from Klipsch R-28F's I would second author's opinion on much less ear piercing highs (i've not owned RP-280F's but willing to take Techno's word) Expensive? - Yes! Great sounds - Yes!
Thanks for the referral to Corey, Techno Dad!
Nice! I'm glad you like the speakers. They are very capable.
Simply awesome review! So helpful!
Did you do a full, detailed review at a later date?
Hi John! Unfortunately, I have not. I have been inundated with speakers, but I can say this. They perform very well!
@@TechnoDad thank you
I've had them for some time now and they do exactly what you describe - CRANK clean, accurately rendered, full sounding music like crazy
Thank you for your helpful review, it assisted me with making the right call for my situation.
Halo integrated does hit the gas with it. I enjoyed hearing these speakers at the pilgrimage
OMG, those speakers are beautiful :)
They are pretty awesome! Dual 10” woofers on each. Lots of bass.
Hi Channa, would the 260’s be a big upgrade over my 250’s? The difference is $300 more. TIA
WOW! A comment from youthman??!! He explained the lack of shrill in one of his videos. Plastic surround on the horn compared to the rubber one on those. The shrill (for lack of a better word) was why I didn't like the Klipsch - except for the old ones. BUT would consider these now! Great video. (as usual!)
Thank Les! They are great speakers!
Hey Techno Dad! Great review!! I’ve been using studio monitors for the m” longest time for my home DJ setup and am looking to change it up and swap for speakers with more personality / power. How would you think a pair of these would work combined with some 1200’s / cdj’s and a Xone 96??? I think I need to go listen to these in person!
Ayyyy! Another DJ. For music, these were awesome, but they are HUUUGE compared to studio monitors. Which monitors do you have? I'm not 100% sure these would be the best option, though. It would also depend on how big your room is as well. Yes, you should definitely hear them in person. Shoot me an email if you want to get into detail - TechnoDad55 at gmail dot com
Dang I would like to have that center with my 280f but my 504c does bang up job. And this wouldn't have fit in my space so nevermind. 🙈
I just ordered my full front stage of these speakers! Can’t wait. But what does the crossover mean that you point out in the vid? Also what is the ideal receiver for these? Marantz, Denon or Yamaha as far as sound signature those provide. Thanks
Nice! I like either Denon or Marantz. Audyssey seems a bit better than YPAO to me. As far as the crossover, I'm not sure what you mean. This video was made a long time ago, so I'm not 100% sure.
What tv stand are you using in this video? I'm gong for the exact same setup with the RP-280Fs and the RP-504C, but I can't find a high quality tv stand for the center channel. Thanxx in advance :) .
Do you know if this years Klipsch Rp 600f redesign has eliminated that treble harshness you found with the 280F?
Great review once more
My dream front stage
Thank you, Greg!
Great Video as always! In your opinion, how do the svs and klipsch compare? I am torn between the ultra towers and the new RP-8000 (those piano black with new ring are sexy). Thanks for the info.
Dark Moon thank you for the reply. I think I will be going with the new rep-8000 coming in September.
Dam I like those speakers series ass kicking , great video 👍
I just wanted to ask does anyone have an opinion between buying the Klipsch rp-8000f’s and buying the rf-7 iii.. just wanted to add, if anyone has a video that they would recommend I look at, to figure out which way I should go, I am more than willing to give it a listen/watch. @Techno Dad, or @Youthman
How do these compare to the older Paradigm Monitor 11 v6 with the cc390 center channel?
FYI to all, Cory also is a SVS dealer...I have bought ALOT from him, great prices!
This is true!!
@@TechnoDad How can I contact Cory please? Thanks in advance.
RF-7II with matching RC64II running a 7.2 Klipsch reference system, it rocks, do not see the need to upgrade
Hi Paul! I wouldn't see any reason to upgrade!
Hi TD, love all your video, I am a Klipsch guy but I am looking for new speakers, B&W 800 series or RF7 III ? I would like your input and anyone else also please, thank Danny
Here is my setup for now, with denon 8500h, I just returned the denon and waiting on the marantz 8805, and getting amps for the 8805. Might keep the Svs, or upgrade to jtr 4000
Get JTR. SVS can't compare.
@@Voltis-5 they also cost significantly more than the SVS...so, put that in your reasoning
Happy Haircut!
How did you calibrate the rf7 and rc-64 iii. Could you post it
Thanks for doing what you do. Is it true you need to "Break in" new speakers? If it IS true, how do you suggest it's done? I would guess, 10 hours at no more than 50% volume???
I personally don't think so...
Are base plates available for older model speakers? I hate the little knob legs...
What do you think the yamaha rx-a3080 will sound like?
Do an a/b comparison between the rf7 3 and 280 please
Sure thing! I've already have time carved out in a couple of weeks!
Thank you! That is the exact front stage i was considering vs the rp280f and 450c. You just settled the internal conflict. Can not wait to hear it running with two pb16 ultras, and prime elevation for the two surround and 4 height. Would you recommend two prime elevation or 2 280f's for the rear surround?
Hi Jeff! You're gonna love the upgrade, it's at the next level!! I like to use bi-poles, so even some RP250Cs would do the trick. You can use the 280Fs if you want.
Thank you for your response. I did mean the surrounds will be 250s bipole. I saw your review on those and would not consider a monopole. I guess my question is would you rather use prime elevation for rear surrounds or rp280f? Living room is 13x19 single couch position and starting from nothing
Did you noticed a big difference with the center channel? I have a RP-504C and I was wondering if the RC-64 III would be a noticeable upgrade.
I'm curious as well
Why would you use the Denon avr instead of the halo by itself for 2ch music ?!
Any recommendations for surrounds with this front stage?
I have a ATMOS set-up with a Onkyo TX-RZ3100 receiver in a 18' x 23' room with a 200" screen.
2 RP-280F speakers up front.
2 RP-280F speakers at the rear.
1 RP-450C center.
1 R-115SW Subwoofer
2 RP-250S sides
4 RP-140 ATMOS speakers mounted on the ceiling.
I'm toying with the idea of going with the RF-7 III and the RC-64 III on the front sound stage and putting the 2 front RP-280F's where the RP-250S's are now. I'm just not so sure if it's worth the much higher price. I wish I could get a demo of those in my theater instead of somewhere else. That way I'd know how they would perform using my set-up.
Hi! Honestly, the RF7IIIs and RC64III are on a different level. I would not put the RP280F where the RP250s are. I prefer bi-poles for surrounds. You could sell a pair of the RP280F to help pay for the RF7IIIs
Hi Techno Dad, can you confirm me which wood end is it on your RF-7 ?
Man, i would love to have these in my living room. How would this speakers compare to Arendals 1723 towers?
Wow man, I love the finish on those speakers! With that huge center speaker, and those floor standers, your living room must sound like the local multiplex. Love the sensitivity ratings, and really like those base plates for the floor standers. Have fun trying them out!
Thanks man! That base plate is no joke!! I am thinking of reaching out to iso-acoustics to check out some ways to de-couple the floor standers. Yes, my living room is WAY better than the local cinema...the local cinema is tiny and had a blown out side surround speaker last time I was there. It was very annoying trying to watch Ready Player One with a blown out speaker.
Damn! That's almost the same cost as my entire electronic update from last year's Black Friday sale. Lol
Yeah, it's super pricey!!
Youthman has proven that these are quality speakers. I’m sold and will be getting my first pair of RP150s soon. I’m interested in hearing if these speakers are overkill for a living room of your size. Were the 280s more ideal? Is there big difference in the sound quality between the two?
Yeah, I'd say they are a bit overkill. The 280s are great!! Think of the RF7s as the 280s on steroids
Love your videos brotha, I need your advice, Am about to build a Home Theater system, for towers speakers am undecided between the Klipsch reference Rf-7 iii or The Definitely Technology BP9080X towers any recommendations?
Hi Andre! That's awesome! It's a tough call as I haven't heard the Def Tech in my room, so I can't really say.
@@TechnoDad Thanks, What is your honest opinion about the Klipsch Reference Rf-7 iii in 2021?
Hi,
Got a quick question for you. Just got the Klipsch RF-7III & the RC-64III for fronts (after watching your video). Can you recommend the best rear speakers to go with these? I'm running 5.1 with a Denon 4700h. Thank you and love your videos.
Yes I can! I would go with a Klipsch bi-pole like the RP-502S for your surrounds - amzn.to/3kAToWp
@@TechnoDad you recommend these for rear and sides with the rf7s?
I have klipsch 280f as fronts, i set 17 feet back in sweet spot..what watt amp should i get..i watch primarily movies
Wow, that's far! Email me so I can get more information: technodad55 at gmail
Curious if you feel the cost difference is worth the sonic improvement? I am considering these as well as RP-6000F or 8000F. My ideal listening/viewing area in my home is 17x12x14. This area is part of an overall great room which flows into a kitchen which is 17 x 14 x 34. So room filling with great dynamics, and musicality is first and for most. Your suggestions for my room would be greatly appreciated!
Hi Gary!! I love the RF7IIIs especially for two channel music. The sound is on a whole new level! I came from the RP 280F which was replaced by the 8000F. The dual 10” woofers and larger horn and tweeter in the RF7III really bump up the sound and I don’t need a subwoofer when listening to two channel music. They really are very good and worth the extra cash. Contact my Klipsch Dealer Cory and see what he can do: bit.ly/TDPHTFB
@@TechnoDad hi, I am upgrade front speakers RF-42II for RP 280F or 8000F .. in my space is living Room size 13 x 31 (403 sq feet complete) (used front TV is 13 x 12 sq feet) my system is for movies more than music. what model do you recommend? thanks for your help..
Please tell me I have the SR8012, they can push to the reference level without distortion a system with this monsters? RF7 III+RC64 III+atmos+RS250S?
Marantz 8012 should be just fine!!!
Thanks for the review! I’m considering these as well. Is placement easier on these than say SVS Ultra Towers?
Hi! Much easier to place than the SVS Ultra towers. Those have side firing drivers that can be an issue in a smaller room. Contact my dealer Cory for the most updated pricing on the RF7IIIs and RC64III - bit.ly/TDPHTFB Also let me know when you get them in!
Did you run these as large on the avr? I have a mediocre sub, would you still keep it for lfe or ditch it. It’s an infinity ps8 I believe. Thanks for the link!
Will you receive any credit? Do I need to mention your name? I’m messaging a rep now on FB
Great video as always man,
Quick question, being from the UK it seems difficult to source an amp to drive tower speakers,
What amps would you recommend that pumps out about 150/200 watts.
Thanks ,
Hi! Have you looked into Cambrdige Audio. They have a hefty 200 wpc power amp, but it's very pricey!! It's the "Cambridge Audio Azur 851W". Also NAD has a two channel amp pushing 150 wpc, it's the "NAD C 275BEE". There's also the Anthem MCA 225 power amp pushing 225 wpc.
@@TechnoDad awesome thanks man,
I wonder if the RP 280s replacement...RP8000 is the same in the highs?...has a new horn technology....lastly...you seem to turncoat on the 280s from your past posts...I really don't expect $500 speakers to sound as good as $1800 speakers...the only ones that I've heard that punch way above their weight is the $99 Pioneer's Adam Jones SPFS52s...but I'm sticking with the 280s...I don't hear the harshness...just good sound.....
Yeah, speakers a ver personal thing. We all hear different things when we listen to speakers, and some people are more sensitive to higher or lower pitches. Take for instance the Yanny or Laurel situation. I was asked by people in the Klipsch FB group to compare the two, even though it's not a fair comparison. Trying to compare a speaker that's 3 times the price, it would probably sound better due to the different materials and cabinet design. Don't get me wrong the RP-280F is a fantastic speaker!! I stand by all the previous reviews about the RP-280F. Inherently, horns have a tendency to be too bright, and Klipsch develops different technology to battle this. The new RP-8000F has a newly designed titanium vented tweeter. Don't know what that sounds like yet...
Hey but do they go bellow 20hz, I think not, so get a subwoofer.
feel like klipsch and the like can be had or even beat for way less with good research,secondary markets,online direct etc.
Buying used is a hard thing to help with or describe in a video. I’ve heard plenty of tower speakers and the RF7IIIs have been trouncing most speakers above its price point.
So Techno Mom comes home and doesn't notice the new sound stage(because most women might not care to notice since they have other more important matters too care about)turns on the jams and Immediately gets blown through the wall into the next room with her hair all de shuffled, makeup melted off the face and one eye lash hanging from her cheek, gets up and says, "I'm gonna kill Techno Dad, but that sound was TOTALLY AWESOME!!!" Techno Dad in need of CPR!!!
Those are Beautiful Speakers Bro, enjoy!!
Hahahahaha!! Best comment of the week!!! LOL!! Thanks buddy!!
@@TechnoDad 👍
"Let's Be Clear": Atlantic Broadband's commercial is the most overplayed commercial in the history of UA-cam. Cool It !
What about the pb4000. I’m dying to know your thoughts.
I know this is late but any klipsch rf7 series are so fast and tight you honestly need a svs pb16 to match the speed to sound the most smooth pb4000 would be slow comparative knowing where the bass is coming from but for raw pure output pb4000 is really impressive
"LETS GET INTO IT!" ... "Before we get into it."
LOL!!!
You should check the new affordable line of Klipsh reference speakers
I went to Best Buy today and they have the new models end they looks great.
Yeah, I saw them at CES this year!!
I just picked up the r820f and they sound phenomenal.
ericimi Im taking back my 820s i got on Black Friday. Found some Rp-280fs for 600 a pair as wells as a 450c for 399 open box. So im essentially trading the 820s and the 34c center for rp-280fs and a 450c for only $150 more. 😱
I saw the 820s on Black Friday and jumped on them assuming they were the good Klipsch since ive been out the game for about a decade. I didnt realize they renamed the low level tier “Reference” and added the word “premiere” the the good stuff.
The 820s and 34c sounded really good. No swrious complaints for the Black Friday price i paid but stepping up the the RPs makes me feel alot better about my purchase long term. I feel like these will suffice for me for many many years. Come on amazon! Hurry up!
Will you be reviewing the new klipsch reference premiere speakers rp8000, rp600CB, spl120?
Hi! I don't think so. Unless they send me some to review, but I don't think that's going to happen.
Hey Channa would you cross them over in receiver at 80hz or lower say around 60hz or 50hz since rf 7iii woofers go down to 32hz? I think the former means less bass going to my subs but more pronounced bass to rf7-iii? Or crossing them at the 80hz universal crossover. Thnx
I had mine at 50
@@TechnoDad super thnx. What about for the rc64III
Thank you techno dad I have two sets of tower speakers from Klipsch F200 and the the other speakers are from Polk audios now they are a little bit small I was thinking maybe sell them both the Klipsch F200 are five and a quarter inch speaker woofers. I was thinking of going with the Klipsch 8 in Tower speakers and selling them both good idea?
Hi Steve! That's totally on you, but I like the added bass from dual 8" woofers...
@@TechnoDad thank you for that awesome. Techno Dad,
@@TechnoDad thank you for your videos this pandemic I'm not sure timing is a little off but I'd love to get something soon maybe wait until the new year. keep up the good work thank you with all the videos God bless,
Would you recommend going with a 6.5 inch reference series or a 5.25 reference premier floor Standing speakers
Hi Brandon! That all depends. Can you listen to both speakers before you buy?
Techno Dad no I won’t be able to
Seeing this after I bought these in September, I’m thinking I should have gotten the cherry over the walnut. 😞
So, since the RP-280Fs are harsh.. what AVR do you suggest we run those speakers at for dolby atmos? Is Denon x6300H more than enough? And what can we do to improve the sound if the AVR isn't enough for music? Do we need an extra amp for music? or even a pre-amp? And if yes, can you name some that would fit perfectly with RP-280Fs? (lots of questions sorry)
Cuz, I'm going for 2x RP-280Fs on 1,2k euros both, instead of 3,4k euros per RF-7 iii speaker. Who knows, maybe later on the long future I upgrade.. when I'm rich..LOL
Don't get me wrong, the RP-280Fs are awesome speakers!! I listen to music super loud and I'm usually pushing 160 wpc into the speakers. At some points they will strain, but it's gonna be VERY LOUD for a long time. The RF7s are three times the price, and it shows. Newly designed tweeter and larger drivers with a hand made cabinet. You'll totally be fine with the 280Fs!! As long as you make a few adjustments in the X6300H, you should be fine to run 2-channel music.
I am slowly building a 7.2.4 system mainly for dolby atmos but I also listen to music. You're saying I won't need an extra amp for music? Just stay with the denon?
@@pitchyydneu8826 Yes you will be fine .
What is the matching surrounds for the rf 7 iii and rc 64 iii?
Not too sure. I'll have to ask.
Hi Channa, how many isolation pads are you using for your centre channel speaker?
Hi! Normally like 4, but I can't fit any under this RC64III. I'll have to cut them in half
Techno Dad thanks bud 👍🏻✌🏻
I gotta give the "3's" a listen. The last time I heard Klipsch speakers was at least 10 years ago if not before that. Hated the harsh/brightness from the horn tweeters THEN. I stayed away from all horn driven speakers from that point. Stuck with silk-dome or ribbon. But Youthman in one of his mentioned the new tweeters in...how the materials used had changed. The harshness was gone....forgot which speakers he was referring to...don't think it was the RF7III's...
Odd Klipsch doesn't have surrounds yet to match the flagship floorstanding and centre -III speakers. And in-ceiling heigh speakers to make a complete "3 series" system.
For subs...2....JTR Captivtor 4000's or Rythmic, or PSA 3511's... SVS apparently no longer reigns supreme...There is better now...heh...
How about a demo?? :)

are you still using this for your setup or have you changed since then?
No, I have a Martin Logan setup now - ua-cam.com/video/PdvlwdNqsXU/v-deo.html
Awesome. 🙂
Yes sir!
Are you planning to compare to the RP-8000F when it releases?
What's the difference between 820f and 8000f?
Anthony N Wondering the same thing, little to no information out on the RP-8000F besides what's on Klipsch website and it's supposed to come out this month.
@@Analyzer52 i know right?! It's like their marketing team doesn't want them to sell! No info, no comparisons between generations, heck i can't even find which is their new 15" sub!
Hi. I dunno exactly what's the deal with these db-s. What's better to have a speaker with f.e. 88 db or f.e. 100 db and what's the difference?
@Dark Moon only this? I guess I was expecting something more... Does this mean that the 100 db is more power efficient than the 88db? Let's say both are 500 W.
Hi Vegeta!! I actually made a video about speaker sensitivity, which I will link in this message. What it means is if a speaker has a sensitivity of 100 db, at 1 meter away, with 1 watt of power, I will be getting 100 db. To go up 3 db, we need to double the power. And, since I sit about 14 feet away from my speakers, the volume gets lower depending on far I am away from the speaker. So if I had a speaker with 88 db sensitivity, I would need more power to get to the same volume level where I sit, 14 ft away from the speaker. Here's the video link: ua-cam.com/video/53KBKYeJdPs/v-deo.html
@@TechnoDad thank you very much for fast reply! You're awesome!
Can you tell me where you got the tv stand from please I’m going to get the rc 64 soon
Hi! I got it about 15 years ago, it’s made by Bell-O. I believe they still make TV stands.
Thanks
Svs ultra towers vs rf-7iii. Your thoughts?
Hi! Great question! It's hard to say as the SVS Ultra Towers are $999 each (amzn.to/2PB1W0z) and the RF7IIIs are $1,799 each (amzn.to/2yHDgMx). It's hard to compare the two when one costs so much more. I also haven't heard the Ultra Towers in my room.
Hey what’s upTecho Dad? Hey bud I had a question maybe you can point me in the right direction I’m shopping for a 4K blu-Ray player......would you be able to recommend me some??
Hello Alfonso! I sure can! What's your budget?
Techno Dad what’s up? I’m thinking like 300-500$
Can you reveiw The Cerwine Vega XLS 215?
That's like a live PA speaker. I might have a connection in a few months. I'll keep it in mind!
Hey I was wondering if you could help me out with my RP-280F's... They just aren't pumping like they should be.
You need a sub-woofer
I had mine on full range and was powering them with a Parasound Halo Integrated which is outputting 160 wpc into 8 ohms

I pretty much have it all dialed in now. Movies sound amazing... Music is still "OK"... It was Intended for movies anyways..
What do you think of the definitive Mythos line?
Not sure, I haven’t heard those in person
What size woofer would you run with the rf3
Sub? PB4000, so 13”
Has anyone come across anything cheaper that can come close to the Klipsch RF-7 III sound quality?
Hi! Not too sure, there are so many options out there.
so the Bookshelf are very close to the Tower ? :)
haha! Man, no comparison!
