Are the Klipschorns mainly for Classical music ??

I finally got the '92 Klipschorns in the house and there is a tremendous difference in the sound of the '78 Klipschorns. The '92's sound so much better. The highs are abundant and the sound is awesome compared to the '78's. I think it is time for new crossovers in the '78's. I know it is not the cd player or preamp and amp now that is the problem. It is definitely something with the speakers. I guess I should consider new tweeter horns too.

I think it is time for new crossovers in the '78's.

You would do well to google for tweaks. There are many, very well documented, improvements for the Klipshorn.

In and of itself the Klips is, undoubtedly, an excellent speaker design.

Thanks Greg....I have already talked with Dan Wescott and Al Crites and have info about Al Klapp.(sp). I will try and google it. Thank you for the suggestion. I have heard the A crossover is better than the original AA crossover which came in the 78's. I also heard the ALK is a good replacement. I am not as knowledgable as many people on this site and the Klipsch Forum. I am trying to make the best decision but I am still amazed how much better the 92's are. I don't even have them in the corners of the room yet and they are totally awesome. Any help will be greatly appreciated. Thanks again.

I meant Dean Wescott not Dan.....sorry Dean

If you have the original crossovers in those 78 K-horns, the caps are surely as dry as the Atacama Desert, making the speakers sound thin and edgy. Doing the mods (re-wiring with silver, updating the crossovers, installing the horn/tweeter kit from ALK OR dampening the original horns) are all transformational upgrades for the K-horn.

Enjoy!
