$399 a pair. A decent price, probably not the best but pretty good floor standers for a good price. They'd be great for a bedroom or something.

    And they went real quick, which doesn't surprise me.

    I have a pair of those in my bedroom rig. 97 db sensitivity so any amp can power them. They sound very good but not as good as the living room's RTiA7's. I paid $425.00 canadian used but looking like brand new with boxes manuals etc. Very good deal.

    I spent some time listening to these a couple weeks ago. They're alright...but I wasn't to impressed by them. I'm really not a fan of the Klipsch horn tweeters. They're just to bright and forward sounding for my tastes.

    Some people like those qualities, but not my cup of tea. Good price either way though.

    I think the Klipsch horn tweeters get kind of a bad rap.
    Been listening to my Klipsch Classic KG4's a lot lately and they are fantastic!!!
    (but they are 24 years old and the horn technology has changed a bit)

    Tubes help. :)

    Absolutely, if I'm listening to a pair of Klipsch it's much better to have then on some good tubes.
