    I have upgraded my RP-250C to the RP-45C and you where right. Although the 250 isn't a bad speaker, together with the RP-280F this is a huge difference. Thank you for this video. This confinced me to upgrade and boy am I happy I did👍🏻.

    I've been thinking about upgrading ever since I got my RP250C, not that it doesn't sound good but I felt the same way like it lacks output and drowns a bit when my RP280FS are on. Glad I kept my box for my RP250C so I can put it up for sale on ebay and use that money with some extra cash and get the RP450C. love what you are doing with your set up man. automatic thumbs up!

    Thanks for the info!...I honesty didnt even look into this particular center speaker because it just looked too big but after you explained the 2 and half way crossovers I'm now intrigued!...lol!!...its definitely time for a new center speaker for me as when I use odyssey on my denon avr it auto sets the center speaker crossover at 200!...yeah!! 200..lol!! I knew I had budget speakers but I didnt realize how cheap they were until I got my denon avr...lol!!

  • @beninski707
    @beninski707 Před 4 lety

    I’m sure you’ve resolved this issue by now but your Denon has almost no ventilation due to that glass shelf. Risk of internal damage is high especially when driven to high volumes for extended periods. Love your videos tho. Very informative and enthusiastic. Keep it up!!!

  • @home-theater-engineer-guy

    I do believe they used the 2.5 way design to avoid the comb filtering that would be caused by the outer woofers playing anything above 500Hz since they are far enough apart. The wavelength of 500Hz is 27inch, and that's about how far apart those woofers are, if they played anything higher they would comb filter :) Also the way it is described in this video is a 3 way design. I believe the middle woofers handle all the frequencies that the outer ones do (58-1500) and the outer ones have an additional crossover circuit for 58-500.

  • @kutasimusic
    @kutasimusic Před 7 lety +3

    I upgraded my whole system from the Klipsch Reference line to Reference Premier including this RP-450C center channel. Previously i owned a small R-25C center channel then got this large one. The difference was big in price and size as well, but sonically... well it's not a day and night IMO.
    The bigger center channel plays more smooth and pleasant for sure. It's an more effortless presentation of voices and effects, but not as bigger in sound as you might expect. Don't get me wrong i didn't regret the upgrade since love my RF-280Fs (and RP-450C as well) but the smaller Klipsch could go loud as well. So if you are thinking about upgrade, you will pay for quality, more detail and refinement with these, not for an earthshaking sound.

I feel like its undersize and lacks midrange. I hope my new RP-450C will blend well with my reference line up speakers. R-610F for LR and R-14M for surrounds. what do u think? did I just give myself a headache? Thank you.

    Found this speaker a few days ago and am trying to solve how to set it up on my current tv stand (thinking a tabletop VESA mount is the best bet outside of just buying a brand new stand). I'm in the same boat you were where my front left and right speakers are drowning out my center speaker and this should more than make up for that and get my front sound stage on the same frequency level.

With all these speakers they have so many woofers in them. My question should I get the Klipsch R12SW sub woofer to this system, or am I ok with what I have? Also is the Sony STR-D1080 a good receiver for these speakers.Thanks.

  • @sunnyvalejedi
    @sunnyvalejedi Před 7 lety

    One of the biggest changes you can make change the speaker positioning to the back wall. You've got those stairs behind your setup, which will reduce the overall bass (1ft = deep, boomy base, 2" will be tight, but reduced).
    You think the 450 paired with RP-160m will be too much center? I've also got a 10" Klipsch sub.

      +Ho Lee Phuk Hi! It could be too much center. I had the smaller one, the 250C and when I got the 280Fs, I didn't have enough center, so then I got the 450C. Ball was good after that purchase.

    Do you think there’s a significant difference between this RP-450c and the newer RP-504c? They seem pretty similar.

    • @TechnoDad
      @TechnoDad  Před 7 měsíci

      They changed the tweeter from the 450c to 504c...that could be quite the difference...

    Hi there tecno dad, awesome video. I have a few questions I'm using Denon 4400h and I just bought klipsch RP 160m in front and back will the 450c match up with those speakers? Also I'm using LG oled c7 65" weighs 50 pounds can I sit that TV on top of 450c ?

      Eric Patterson if youre on a couch you want it ear level and preferably in line with your floorstanding tweeter. I have a taller entertainment center so its perfectly parallel with my l and r channel. Its extremely seemless for audio. If you are above ear level I added some audio resistant foam to angle it down toward my listening area

  • @pdublt3d
    @pdublt3d Před 7 lety +1

    I've got the RP260Fs with the RP250c. And I think the centre is being over powered by these as well. I've got it cranked up a couple of extra DBs to compensate, but it could go higher.

    • @TechnoDad
      @TechnoDad  Před 7 lety

      +Adam Smith I know the RP250C is no slouch. I had a set of bookshelves as mains and surrounds, so it worked out well. Once I made the jump to RP280FS, then I noticed it was lacking a little bit.

  • @1Donmonte
    @1Donmonte Před 7 lety +3

    Actually did the same thing as you, upgraded my 250C to 450C to complement my 280FAs as I thought bigger would surely be better. I was expecting a bigger sound upgrade tbh, it just proved that the 250C was no slouch once everything was level matched. Still I love the 450C, at least the speakers now look proportional. Keep up the great work !

    I purchased some Fluance signature series bookshelf speakers and center channel for my entertainment system. Fast forward a year ago from now and one of my speakers had a damaged woofer. I sent the speakers back through the lifetime warranty and they replaced them with new ones. 👍 awesome customer service. Anyway, I ended up buying a pair of Klipsch Rp-160m speakers which are nice and loud lol. I moved the Fluance to the back for a full 5.1 surround system. Now my question is that I’m still using the Fluance center channel which sounds fine but I read that it’s recommended that your front and center speakers be the same brand. Should I at least upgrade to the klipsch 250c (I believe that u just moved on from)? Or im I okay?

    • @TechnoDad

With the foam risers does it angle the speaker close enough to your ears? I'm wondering if I could use a similar stand or if I should get something that would put the speaker up a little higher. Do you think something like this would work if I used the same auralex risers to angle the speaker up?www.bello.com/avsc2155.php
