The RF-82 II (2010) was the last well built Reference speaker with titanium tweeters & ceremetalic woofers. After the RF-82 II, Klipsch shifted the Reference line to aluminum tweeters & cheaper "Injection Molded Graphite" woofers while keeping titanium tweeters & ceremetalic woofers for the Reference Premiere series (2015).
The RP II series now uses silicone composite tweeters, which are clearly cheaper than titanium, but some people may prefer them for a less bright sound.
Personally I'm very satisfied with my RP-280FAs (titanium) and their detailed sound for home theater and gaming.
B&H are more stingy (no refunds on shipping costs), but Adorama has always been competitive with other major retailers with free returns and getting what you paid for in my experience.

Yes. Worth it to spend another $300 and get the Reference Premier 8000 line on sale.

I never had a problem with Adorama. Ordered many items from them and got what I paid for. Free returns too.

I bought these R-28PF speakers from Adorama for $448.95 back in Feb. 2020. Also purchased the smaller R-26PF from Adorama for $399.99 in June 2018. They are decent speakers if you don't want or have the space for a receiver or other components. My biggest complaint was the highs (for both models) are too bright for me.

I just want a pair of nice clean stereo speakers for music.
