I voted for Klipsch from my experience with their mass produced less expensive spread - my KB-15's and B-10's. While I broke them in on my office stereo, listening to music (CD's), they were destined to be extension speakers for my table top shortwave receivers, where they are much appreciated. They whetted my appetite... and early November found a pair of new RB-81ii's in my office followed on BF by a pair of R15M's ($124 delivered!). I rethought my office stereo, now consisting of an Onkyo C-7030 CDP, an Emotiva Mini-X A-100 amp, and a pair of RB-81ii's with my JBL SUB 550P subwoofer available if needed. My Onkyo TX-8020 replaced my old Yamaha AVR, being fed analog audio from an old Sony BRD player and another C-7030, while driving my new R15M's in my upstairs hobby room, where I can still view movies on a workbench mounted JVC 24" LED/LCD display fed video from the BRD player via an HDMI cable. I have my old HT sub, a Polk PSW-505, connected to the TX-8020, when it needs help.
I suggested Klipsch due to the uniformity of their current line of imported fare. My first intro to the line was in 1971, when I visited an audiophile's music room, complete with two K-horns and a center speaker, possibly a LaScalla, each driven by a Dynaco 35W tube amp. The sound was unreal... fantastic... really left it's mark. Sadly, I couldn't take advantage of the two 'employee' purchases I would encounter over the years as a repair tech at hifi salons, so the Heritage line is a pipedream to me. Now retired, I found a Klipsch or two I could afford - albeit on closeout - and really enjoy their horns and the clear sound, not to mention their efficiency.
