Yeah please don't confuse my Klipsch setup with the stuff you see in Best Buy lol. Klipsch must have sold out to Best Buy or something because when we bought our RF and Marantz back in '02, you'd never see klipsch in those stores.
But now our RF speakers and Marantz are sitting in the closet collecting dust. This is because everything is made for HDMI these days
Our new house has Klipsch speakers built into the ceiling running off a 7.1 Onkyo reciever in the media closet. So now the only thing we can still use is the RSW12.
And regarding car audio, I guess i'm going to stick with my booming setup because all of the high end audiphile subs weight a ton, cost a fortune, require expensive enclosures, and require more power than my electrical system can handle. The only two things I still need to replace are my Bose speakers and speaker amp that came with the truck (eww). I was thinking about Alpine Type R but I guess that's probably not very good according to what I've read so far. So is Alpine truly bad these days? My dad back in the 80s and 90s always put Alpine stuff in his cars, so I guess I was taking after him by getting my Alpine head unit and considering their speakers.
