Hi all.. I'm new to this forum and am getting a klipsch system to replace my sony ht in a box. Here in Canada our main klipsch dealers are London Drugs and Future shop. I got my system planned out except for the sub. I've listened to a few klipsch subs and velodyne. I may want to add another sub later as well. I can get the RSW-10D for a fairly decent price. The receiver that will be powering the system is an Onkyo 876. Room dimensions are 13'x 15'. I will be using the system for music,gaming,movies. I listen to all kind of music but mostly rap/hiphop... I don't like muffled bass, I like hard hitting clean bass.

So here are the speakers I will be getting..


(2) RF-82

(1) RC-62

(2) RS-52

(2) other surround or bookshelf speakers added in the future.


Thanks

My older brother has an Klipsch RSW-10d with his Klipsch Heresy Mains...it sounds very nice with music and movies...if you can get it for a nice price...go for it...


I have a Klipsch Synergy Sub-12 with my Klipsch KG 5.5 Mains...I think it is nice and prefer mine for movies but prefer his for Music but then I use mine almost exclusively for Movies...(there is some more versatility with the RSW-10d as well...)


Little brother has an Outlaw Audio (Hsu) LFM-1 with his Heresys and it sounds great with both Music and Movies...


I recently bought my Sub-12 during some of the Black Friday (Thanksgiving here in the States) sales and couldn't pass up the price...I had been considering the RSW-10d during the low price for the cherry version ($499 US?) but I found out about it too late...I also considered one of the Outlaw models also during that Black Friday sales event and was all set to buy either the LFM-1 Compact (10 inch) or the LFM-1 EX (12 inch) but couldn't make up my mind until the Sub-12 came up for half price ($249)...Good luck and I hope this helps...

I have a Klipsch RW10d sub and a pair of RS 42s surrounds for sale if you are interested. NEW. I have original boxes for the 42s. I have original receipt and they were purchased from an authorized dealer. They are in immaculate condition. Not a scratch,scuff, blemish, etc.. Nothing. I will split shipping with you. Let me know.

Thanks for all the help.. would $899 CAD be a good deal on the RSW-10D?? Theres also a velodyne 15" DLS-5000R that I could add later when it goes on sale, would that be a good idea?? Or should one SVS SB12 plus be a better way to go, its a small sealed 12" that I can get for $949 CAD plus shipping. The PB12 is $1499. The PB12 might be too big and too boomy. I want something that will give a nice clear tight sounding bass

freshane, hello and welcome to AVS


I have Klipsch RF-7s, RC-7 center, and subs up front.


My subs: I have two SVS 16-46+. (the link in my signature has older pictures)

Old setup: http://picasaweb.google.com/lh/photo...eat=directlink

The used market is where you should find the best deal for subs (audiogon.com or another).


No matter what sub you end up getting, regardless of money spent, add ~$100 USD and get a BFD 1124p. If you don't want muddy bass, a parametric equalizer of some sort is a must; it is not an option. Seriously, don't buy a sub without an equalizer. The BFD 1124p will be the best cheapest option to correct the issues your sub(s) will have with your room (minus treatments of course).
