The Klipschorn hasn't been a speaker of so much talk for 60 years for no reason. There's something interesting, some say magical, there. It's an iconic audio piece and looks beautiful in the right room.
If he wants loud chest thumping sound with no perceivable limit, then yes go for it. They do great in the kickdrum frequency area. If he wants bone rattling bass then add a sub.. However, when I crack mine up with bassy tracks like "Flight of the Cosmic Hippo" I swear they go deeper than they're given credit for. Wow.
Either way, they're meant for jazzy acoustic music which is where their flavor meets the mood IMO.
Btw, I run them on Mcintosh and PS Audio M700 class D amps.. Both sound supurb and get really loud with zero distortion. It's a party setup for sure.
