K-horn won't fit, any other corner speakers recommended for a big room?

Ohm is a good option. Only because I’ve used, owned or had most the old Klipsch, Altecs, Jensen, WE, JBL and Tannoy speakers, in this house, not other rooms MY rooms. Just because they make mention that they work best in a corner or what ever the manufacture recommend it doesn’t mean they work in your corners or your rooms.

The only problem I’ve had with every horn or semi-horned speaker I’ve ever used. They are tough to get right in the best of rooms. Throwing in all the other weird stuff they DON’T play well with, like anything on a wall that deadens one side and not the other. Most Klipsch speakers like a lively room. They rely on a reflex response. You throw that out of kilter, you’ll measure until the cows come home, it will never image correctly, have a center phantom, or find a good position to listen.

Either your ears aren’t big enough, one (ear) is to small or The sweet spot is in a place you can’t put your head. LOL (between your legs).

You have to be a contortionist to listen to your system..

OHM. It’s mor betta’ (southern yak)

The next problem is going to be able to gain match subs (low sensitivity) with high sensitivity speakers like horns. It never works. Your always fiddling with the gain on the lower one, in this case the sub. Make sure you have a remote on your sub system that will help.. I always matched drivers or had remotes and usually huge passive subs too. 4cf or larger.

Tone control? I don't leave home without it, if you have horns you have to have tone control. PERIOD. It's like letting a baby run around without a dipper. What a mess WITHOUT control.. Get my drift..:-)

Have fun though..:-)

I wouldn't put Logans in corners against the wall, nor any other dipole speaker.

You're on the right track with Khorns, make it work!

Go with newer model Khorns which are fully enclosed and should allow you to pull them off the wall and out of the corner a little. Or, modify an older set.

@rooze I'm with you on the dipole.  I think that any dipoles will require too much space behind and beside them for me to seriously consider trying them out.  Although I do believe that you don't know until you try.  

I have been looking at Ohm for quite some time and I do believe that the Walsh 5000 could be an excellent attempt to make it work.  I may have to take advantage of the very generous at home trial period that Ohm offers to see if these would work.  At full retail pricing, I'd have to start selling off a lot of equipment that I may not be ready to part with just yet.

I have been speaking with John Huff of Huff Loudspeakers about some of his Omni's that he has leftover from his days in the industry.  He seems to feel confident that his Huff Three would do well in a corner such as mine and is willing to make a deal.  There is much debate about omni's out there and the lovers and haters both make great points.  With my limited knowledge, I think that dipoles would be tough for me to pull off and omni's could be even harder to get right.  Any thoughts on omni's for a very wide separation and corner placement in a big room?

Although the newest Khorn has a fully enclosed bass horn, it allows the Khorn to be out " a bit " from the corner, and you can adjust the toe in to the listening seat. However, they still use the corners to get the optimum balance out of them. Do not be fooled by this. They are still, imo, considered a corner horn. Ohm and Klipsch are like apples and oranges. They are not similar in their presentations at all. I have always had a dedicated listening room, and the WAF was never an issue this way, so I apologize for your situation. You either like horns, or not. I am a horn guy, and Ohms, although very " spacious " sounding, do not do what a Khorn will do ( and vis a versa ). There is no argument with this. It is all about what you want as a listener. And, MLs do not benefit in a corner. Good luck. Always, MrD.

mrdecibel: If you know, how do the Klipsch La Scala perform with corner placement?  Are they designed for corner placement ideally?
