[QUOTE="Zaphod Beeblebrox, post: 2941137, member: 4606"] Dang, that receiver just shows me I've been out of the game too long. I have to guess what half that stuff means! It has plenty of power and is rated honestly. Plus, it seems pretty "future proof"; lots of HDMI inputs and 4k pass through. As far as listening rooms in Tulsa, they're aren't many options anymore. There's Video Revolution and Audio Advice (the only ones I've been inside). I don't believe AA carries Klipsch; not sure about VR. The Best Buy stores here tend to have the Magnolia HiFi "sub store", which carry pretty decent stuff, but again, I'm not sure they carry the Klipsch Reference series. BB does, or at least used to, carry a lower line Klipsch series with cheaper, grey drivers. Not nearly as good to my ears, but I'm sure they sold plenty. I've heard/used to sell the sub you're looking at, and it's a dandy. Like Shoot Summ said, generally larger subs are great for big booming movies, but kinda suck at reproducing music. Inertia is a real thing, and once you get that big driver moving one direction, it doesn't want to stop. Hence, big subs have trouble reproducing fast bass lines. I tend to stick to 10" subs for that reason too. But, the 15" Klipsch Reference series did surprisingly well at playing music. MUCH tighter than I expected, but if you are move of a music than movie guy, look at their 12". [/QUOTE]
