klipsh forte III purchase

Anticipating the same purchase. Briefly heard them at Ovation Audio in Indianapolis (great store!). I'll be using for Home Theater L/R and bump my KEF 201 Ref to the rears.
Eventually, will harness to a Pass XA50 -got a feeling about this combination. Good luck whatever you decide...

I think Klipsch should stick with their "Heritage" models but offer "SE" models with modern materials. Basically great designs but need some current tech upgrades.

@wolf_garcia - If you think Fortes are "large", strap on some La Scallas or, gulp, K-Horns! I owned the La Scallas for several months but had to sell as they were too dang big. I loved the mid-range but overall thought the sound "unbalanced" compared to modern speakers. An ace engineer could take this design to new heights (maybe not at their reasonable price, however).
Can't wait to get Forte IIIs! They sound great (better balance) and mate well with low power tubes and Pass amps e.g. XA-25.

My first "real" speakers (1970) were from Allied Radio and had a similar driver configuration (no 15 inch passive, sealed box). I loved them and can’t wait to get Fortes. Please keep us updated with your progress. Care to state what amp you’re using?

@lak - Plenty of pics on YouTube...
