Klipsch!. The worst speaker company, EVER?

Opinions and ears do vary. Not to mention the blazing need to have a compatible unique set of kit to fit with the special demands of Klipsch heritage line.  As a totally satisfied owner of Klipsch Lascala II I can tell you first hand they are simultaneously the most finicky speakers and the most satisfying. Most of the "down sides" of Klipsch heritage line is they won't lie to you and smear over system anomalies. They will not play well with many common solid state even top notch equipment. Paul Klipsch used tubes and with tubes they produce a lifelikeness you've only dreamed of. Check out the following review which explains why Klipsch fans are so loyal and satisficed. Andrew Robinson:

WHY PERFECTION DOESN'T MATTER - La Scala Review!! Klipsch La Scala AL5

Wonder how this Rossi dude really feels?

Merry Christmas.

+1 @allears4u  I am the happy owner of a pair of LS IIs myself. You are right, when it all comes together it’s sublime. Takes a little patience, but get the placement and the supporting cast right and they are hard to beat at any sane cost.

Heard a pair of Klipschorns today and there was a lot to like there for the price. 

I also own a pair of the new La Scalas. Picked them up earlier this year. Use MC275s to drive them. Tubes and horns are an amazing combination. Incredible synergy between the two technologies. Best sounding system I have ever heard. However, if the recording is bad you will know right away.
