Klipsch Jubilee & Klipschorn Experience

I agree 110%, Also, horns do scale of image well!

They sound wonderful, but I really couldn't get past the background chatter, especially during Vivaldi

I have a pair if klipsch klf30. The room is 15x13 and sound great but if you like to listen at high volumes for too long you will start to suffer some fatigue

johnk,

Thanks for sharing. I totally agree with you. I think there's a great deal of misconceptions many have about horn loaded speakers. Also, your comments about the size of the room not having to be big are spot on. I asked Roy the engineer about whether or not a big room was needed and he said the same thing you did. Thanks again for shedding light. 

Does anyone on here own the Jubilees? Im surprised nobody talks about them.

I love the sound even through a you tube video but you would need a dedicated big room to do those speakers justice, man, are they BIG!
