best bang for buck on used ht speakers? maybe b&w?
If we are talking pure HT, buy some used Klipsch. They made my Paradigm reference system sound weak, small, and lacked a lot. Ive owned a ton of speaker sets & Klipsch is as good as anything for HT IMO, and much cheaper. I'm using a all KLF 30... 
klipsch RF-7 loose internal connections?
Klipsch are awesome speakers. It's too bad some never give them a try. Major bang for the buck. 
Anthem vs Integra
I have owned both, and I would buy the Integra 
Good, Affordable Horns?
Old thread, but i have to comment since I bought some KLF 30's a little while back.Too bad so many people talk bad about klipsch. I have a pair of 2001 model KLF 30's. They have 3 internal braces, and are really solid cabinets(the early models had... 
what is the best sounding speakers for under 5000.
I bet you could buy some 2000-2001 model Klipsch KLF 30's, put in a titanium tweeter from crites, a titanium mid from klipsch, a new cross over from crites, and compete with most anything under 10k. All this would cost you less then $1500, if not ... 
Novice budget audiophile seeks advice on Heresy II
Check with Bob Crites, the guy made my Klipsch KLF 30's go from mid fi sound to some of the best speakers Ive owned at any price. I'm not familiar with what mods are best for the Heresy II's, Bob should know. You won't be sorry for any upgrade thr...

New way of dealing with Low Ballers?
04-05-12: Polk432No one is offended by someone trying to get the best deal. It's the riff raff that want things for (next to) nothing, then keep hassling the seller when they don't get their way. Self entitlement additude for those too cheap or th... 
New way of dealing with Low Ballers?
You hear so many people crying about the low ballers, and never here about all the people that post there equipment for way more then it will ever sell for. Always expecting top dollar.I don't blame someone looking for a deal, any more then I blam... 
Magnepan 1.7 too bright, HELP
I wouldn't be surprised if what you really are hearing is just a lack of low end. Try a sub and see. I don't like Magnepans without a sub. They appear to be bright, and that is because the low end is typically weaker then most are used to. Room tr... 
nht vs cerwin vega
I've been in high end audio for years, I've owned very, very expensive speakers, many have been considered class A by stereophile(and have received rave reviews by many on this forum.) I own a pair of the CLS-215 speakers in my upstairs kides movi... 
Your impressions on Paradigm Studio 60 v5?
The only Paradigm studio line I liked was the V2's. IMO a much more balanced speaker then the newer versions. To much harsh shrill tweets in the V3 on IMO. The ref 40 V2, and 100 V2 were fantastic sounding speakers. 
Anthem AVM/20 upgrade to Integra or Marantz??
I went from a Anthem 30 to a Onkyo prepro. The Anthem was a great piece, but its just too far behind in features I want. IMO the new anthem pieces are way too expensive. When they could be had around $2500 new, they were a much better deal and wor... 
Towers with massive dynamics & soundstage $3k?
Klipsch(Klipschorns, La scalas), and & other brand types with horn driven speakers. 
Legacy Focus 20/20's vs PBN Montana EPS-2
I kept bringing in speakers to try to beat the Focus. Nothing ever did. I eventually had to sell mine, I still regret it. I always wanted to try some Montana models. Its hard to beat a large speaker like the Focus. They throw suck a large image. O...
