What speakers would be an upgrade from my klipsch la scallas and my Klipsch Chorus

I spent a lot of time recently, post damping, listening to familiar stuff, and it does sound better...although I'm not particularly "tuned to the differences," it is an improvement seemingly to the clarity and mid range tonal coherence, and my skills cutting up rubbery stuff. I wish I'd put the first damped horn back in to A/B it with the non damped horn but I already had them both out of the boxes so...meh...in any case a cheap and interesting useful tweak. By the way, the 2 12" squares of Dynamat is pretty much exactly enough for both mid horns in a Heresy III.

So I carefully Dynamated (as opposed to dynamited, which would be too explosive) my midrange horns in the Heresy IIIs and it’s a nice but subtle improvement, although they were fine before the Dynamat operation and I did both at the same time so I didn’t A/B them. However, as with many tweaks, the fact that I know the horns are damped makes me feel better about them, and that's what matters...me...it's all about me...

I've got the Dynamat, I've got the time, I'm gonna do it.

The horn in the Heresy III isn't metal (plastic), which could arguably ring...and it's full of little bracing ridges so cutting the damping panels seems fiddly. Please say you (pr anybody else) damped a horn like that and I'll do the operation. Prodding...I seem to need prodding.

I have newish Heresy IIIs and they're great. I have the "stick on" damping stuff but I’m too lazy to stick it on the mid horns...so far...I took a horn out and the ribbed plastic just made me put it back in and save the operation for a rainy day. Has anybody around here damped the horns on a new version Heresy?

Great tube amps aren't "euphonic" or muddy or anything other than musically accurate, more linear, and hipper...unless you have one of those new Pass amps, which in itself is pretty hip even with zero tubes. Otherwise I get that many don't feel like chasing after the lure of "better," older, more rare, less rare but great and you don't know it, expensive or not, finger burning, well regarded, pure crap, U.S.A. sourced, Chinese, Russian, beautifully glowing, exploding, gold pin, rusty pin, SS (although replacing a tube with a SS device seems like heresy), or otherwise always burning out eventually, tubes. I get it.

Klipsch Heresy IIIs (since you seem to like Klipsch) and a couple of subs (RELs)...I recently started using this setup and it’s sounding astonishingly good, and it’s all within your 4 grand budget. You’d have money left over to get that Dennis Had 10 watt per side KT150 triode amp on Ebay (although it may be gone by the time you see this).
