Klipsch love them or hate them.

Careful about that! You know what happens around here when the boyz think there might be a female audiophile in our midst.

I have to admit that a swell of admiration overcame me yesterday as we were auditioning a modded CD player, and my wife started talking about how much better the system might sound with NOS 2A3's.

She's mine! Keep away, boyz!!!

I hate them too. I think the horn sounds nasally, and the bass boomy. You might as well buy a tube-driven guitar stack. I can see how some people like them for classic rock though. I don't want a speaker that adds to the sound, but rather is transparent.

just my opinion...

Love the "Heritage" series which includes the Klipschorns, LaScalas, Belles, etc.

I guess I fit into the love them category. I have a pair of Khorns, 3 KG5.5 and 2 RF3 as my home theater setup. I use the Khorns as my two channel speakers also for analog since I continue to play a lot of vinyl. I recently upgraded my analog by getting a HE table and Van Den Hul moving coil cartridge and my khorns really opened up. The clarity and sound stage was spectacular. I am debating going to a tube setup for the khorns. I have heard many say that tubes go well the the khorns. I have recently heard the new B&W 800 series speakers and was very impressed with clarity and sound stage. But since i already own the Khorns, I don't see spending that much for similar performance
