Help me spend some $$$$$


Hi Im new to home theater/ audio I wanted to ask the more experienced members thier thoughts on a system that I am considering buying . The sytem is the Klipsch RF83 system. It will be for a home theater set up in my living room. It will be for about 60% music and 40% movies, I listen to all kinds of music from reggae to gospel . I plan on getting a Marantz reciever along with the speakers. Can anyone give some insight into this system. Should I be looking into the RF63 system instead ?.. Thanks

I'd go Denon with the Klipsch's. Also, consider that the Klipsch's will not sound as good sitting or listening off-axis! The horns are very directional, and focus sound. On-axis, with the right tonality and matching equip, they are very dyamnic as passive speakers, with very good presence -excellent for movies, and descent for a variety of music, with strong dynamics, efficiency and good detail. They actually, BTW, do best with tube gear in the system! - For the record.
So, just consider. If you're music first, get a tube integrated into the sytsem for 2 channel. Also, the Denon's Audyssey and warm smooth tonal balance work best with Klipsch's here, as a receiver line. Yeah, I like the Denon match there.
Another geat dynamic choice for movies/music are the powered sub tower's from Def Tech and Boston! Clear dynamic sound with the built in powered woofers, that sound much better off-axis, and moving around the house. Pluse these speakers sound very dynamic and strong due to the built in amp in the woofers.
