Klipsch Jubilee & Klipschorn Experience


rankaudio

My 1st home theater was a Klipsch Heritage 5.1 system back in 2000, with Klipschorns front, LaScalas rears, KLFC7 for centre, and Velodyne FSR18 subwoofer. All hooked up to a Marantz Reference SR18EX A/V Receiver and 5 MA700 mono blocks. All in a larger 2 bedroom apartment, the neighbors loved me.....😁

Klipschorns at low - med volume, …ok

 

any louder and your teeth will break

 

my audition years back, powered by Adcom: monos. 
with mod squad and carver, it was better, less harsh

The sound from the Jubilee's was horrible when I heard them at the 2022 Axpona show. Klipsch did a terrible job on the demo for these at the show and didn't properly set these up. For you naysayers that say it was an audio show and everything sounds bad, there were MANY rooms at the show that sounded just fine so this isn't an excuse! I'm sure it's a good speaker but the average consumer will have nowhere near a big enough room for these. I hope Klipsch does a better job this year on their room. Axpona is in 2 weeks, and I'll be there.

I bet it was the amps more than the room. I have Jubilees in a small room with excellent results. I have been playing around with different amps, and what a difference amps make on these speakers. I was hoping to get info from others who own or have heard Jubilees, but so far not one person has any good info about the actual speakers.

@souljasmooth what is your room size, and how far do you sit from your Jubilees ? I sit 8ft away from my Lascalas, and this works great for me. I cannot imagine Jubilees in my room, as I mentioned in a prior post. My best, MrD.
