I'll try my best. I own multiple models of both kef and klipsch speakers including the RP series. Ultimately, what's worth it to you is going to come down to personal preference. Outright, these speakers are going to have a decently greater amount of clarity to them over complex passages in use. Their signature will be much flatter and that could be either good or bad depending on what you like. Klipsch will have a tint of a warm engaging live sound while kef will steer towards a neutral more transparent studio sound. Of note though, if you are running these thorough a cheap AV reciever the kefs may lose some of their appeal, that clarity thing may work against you.

Personally, I've learned to be honest with what I am looking for in my sound signature and not let cost determine what sounds good. If you like klipsch, I would stick with it until you can demo a pair of whatever else you are looking at and see if you prefer it and the associated sound signature more. Klipsch has a pretty unique house sound that some people prefer.

The R7 is also $2000 for a pair. Not too bad. I have a pair of r11s in my theater room. But I think the r7s might fit better in many living room setting. Also $1000 less for a pair than the r11s.

Sweet. Amazing deal. I have these and they sound great.

I'm still waiting for my R2C to ship from Amazon. I have a feeling it was out of stock and they just haven't cancelled yet. Was supposed to arrive today, but hasn't shipped.

I got a pair of R5's delivered Saturday from Best Buy for $1650 regular $3300. This was the best size for my listening room.The R series have been upgraded to "Metas". The price on the R5 Metas went up to $4k. BB has a 15 day return policy. Happy with purchase.

I have 2 15" cerwin Vega 3 way speakers in a 5 speaker surround no subwoofer setup. Yamaha rx-a770. The setup roars with explosions. Am I missing something by not having a dedicated subwoofer and acoustical fronts

Seems pointless to go with the R11 when it still needs a sub.

That's what I told myself when I grabbed the ML Motion 15i instead of the 35XTi (in truth I had already bought some KEF LS50s and couldn't justify the extra $300). When there's a great sale on, I'm almost always in favor of getting as much as you can afford/make room for. That goes for most non-depreciating enthusiast goods, though.

As a former retail employee with the best hi-fi purchase incentives: only the used market beats the rare 50-60% off MSRP. It has been a wild month for speakers.

Wow this deal is insane. Just remember to pair with a great amp. I've used the same McIntosh amp on my R11's as my $18K Revels. Never know when you'll get the upgrade itch.
