Hello everyone,
I have been casually looking at a set of nice floorstanding speakers for a little while now and I think I found a pretty great deal from a friend.
Being a complete speaker neophyte, I wanted to just check in here and see if anyone had input or at least could confirm that this is a good buy.
The deal: 2 Klipsch F-3 floorstanding speakers. 2yrs old, no faults or damage. $350
F-3 --- Floorstanding Stereo Speaker - Klipsch Synergy Series - Overview
Is there anything else in this price range that is "better" in your opinion? I was also looking at a NEW set of Energy RC50's for 2 x $300 = $600 for a pair. Are these a big enough step-up in quality to justify the price difference? If so, what makes them "better"?
Just FYI - I will be running these off an old (I am assuming low end) Onkyo Reciever and using them primarily for movies and music. As I am living in a small apartment with a few roomates and many neighbors, volume output isn't my main concern. I am interested only in value and SQ - clarity and bass are my top priorities.
Hope I provided all the important info, please let me know if I left anything out!
Thanks in advance for your help!
