| Horn based loudspeakers why the controversy? Kosst..........this is from your 1st post . " My system at home portrays a comparable sound to what I heard. Generally I feel that the dynamics of events like that are less than what people want to be hearing on a home stereo. I'm not sure 130 dB ... | |
| My apologies_Upgrade path from Wilson WattPuppy 7's? Gerry, you are naive, but I understand your love for the Mac amp. The WP7s are also something special. However, together, they are not a good match, ( the reason for your searching ). Listen to George, and : Try a high current ss amp. IMO, and, IM... | |
| Any deals on klipsch speakers In what dimension do you need to save space ( width, depth ) ? | |
| Any deals on klipsch speakers Owning Lascalas myself, can you give more information as to why ? | |
| Horn based loudspeakers why the controversy? I am enjoying a pair of Klipsch Lascala speakers, which are my 3rd pair. These have the " AL " crossovers, which I understand, were not designed by PWK, but by another engineer at Klipsch, designed to be a more " audiophile " crossover. I have dam... | |
| Tekton Double Impacts Of my many amplifiers, I own a modified Citation 12, putting out a real 1 watt of class A power ( based on a Nelson Pass design ). It drives my modified Klipsch LaScalas fairly well, sounding excellent. But, I can easily clip it, depending on the ... | |
| Speakers for electronic/hiphop/rnb [$4000 range]? Yogiboy recommended to you setting up the Kefs in your dedicated listening room. If you have not done that, why not give it a try. There is a current post on here, where the OP wanted speakers specifically for rock. I am from the camp that good sp... | |
| What are the best speakers for 80's hard rock? Atmasphere........I am with you......all the way ! | |
| What are the best speakers for 80's hard rock? In my experience, I have found, listeners who primarily listen to rock, tend to " turn it up ", more so than other listeners. Whether better or not, a pair of large Cerwin Vegas ( the better ones ), will play louder, with less compression, than a ... | |
| Klipsch Heresy iii paired with Vintage Marantz integrated amp? Not commenting yet on the question, but, cds are digital, fyi. | |
| LaScalla "horn" sound compared to "maggie" sound Listened to the Santana and Abraxas cds, as well as LZep IV, during the last 48 hrs, and all I can say is, very enjoyable. | |
| Is It Safe to Warm Up Power Amps Without Speakers Attached Hooking up speaker cables to the amp would not be a problem if the cables are not shorted. However, what about the inputs of the amp that is warming up ? The amp should be shut down, caps discharged before plugging into the inputs. | |
| LaScalla "horn" sound compared to "maggie" sound I wanted to add one more thing. I am not a head banger, any more at least, and at moderate, or even lower volumes, dynamics, both micro, as well as macro, are 2nd to none. A virtue of horns. MrD. | |
| LaScalla "horn" sound compared to "maggie" sound My 2 cents. I am on my 3rd pair of Lascalas, and have owned most panel type speakers, as well as many box speakers. Klipsch heritage can sound nasty, or sound excellent. Crossover mods ( and type ), horn and cabinet damping, associated equipment, ... | |
| B&W 801 S2 Fatigue VS. 802 S2 No Fatigue? Stereo5, the B&W 801s are not bright, but very revealing, unless the crossovers are aged. I do not think it is the room, because the 802s would have, also, sounded bright. |
