Yeah me again! :p

I have been desperately wanting a pair of Polk speakers for a while now. Missed out on some SDA's, some 15RTL's etc etc. Now my options have come down to these 2 models.

I need someone to tell me which pair to get! Make the decision for me! lol

Actually any insight between the two would be great.

    That's a hard decision.... those speakers have nothing in common. :p

    The Klipsch will be brighter, more forward, sparkly! :D

    The 12s will have ridiculous bass, maybe a little mellower.

    I don't know which i would choose out of these two. For dedicated two channel.... neither. But that doesn't help you.

    So, you're on a polk forum, get the 12s. ;)
    I don't read the newsssspaperssss because dey aaaallllllllll...... have ugly print.
