| Horn based loudspeakers why the controversy? Let us be clear, here and now, that on 12 / 1 / 17, at 12 : 08 PM, kosst says ( in a response to a post of mine ) " I can't say I've ever heard an ideally set up horn system in a residential setting ". Kosst, if you are ever in the central part of... | |
| Horn based loudspeakers why the controversy? I believe " effortlessness " and " startling dynamics " are some of the qualities that live unamplified music brings to the listener, and ime, these qualities are captured, most honestly, by a good set of properly set up horns. Anyone not liking t... | |
| Have Passive Preamps Finally Come of Age? Well, I have been living with my Luminous Audio Axiom II for a week now. It is the top single ended unit : Walker mod, 3 in, 2 out, with remote. I can honestly say I have reached a point where I am hearing " everything " within the recordings. I c... | |
| What speakers would be an upgrade from my klipsch la scallas and my Klipsch Chorus devaultcarl1 The Lascala, Khorn and Belle all use the rear horn support, as it is a larger and heavier horn than say the Cornwall, Heresy, Chorus and Forte, so I knew you were talking about the Lascala. I am guessing you have the metal horns, and ... | |

| What speakers would be an upgrade from my klipsch la scallas and my Klipsch Chorus P.S. Important ! P.S. I forgot to mention that you need to leave some space around the perimeter of the widest portion of the horn, so the horn can fit flush, again, with the cabinet. This was not a concern, when the horns were mounted from the re... | |
| What speakers would be an upgrade from my klipsch la scallas and my Klipsch Chorus Wolf, Awesome ! I know how you feel about your H111s, but you will appreciate the design more, and of course, the music. Ozzy, I have never used modelling clay, although I don’t see why not. You do need something that will not peel or loosen off, ... | |
| What speakers would be an upgrade from my klipsch la scallas and my Klipsch Chorus Wolf, Roxy, and everyone......Listen, all I am trying to do is to help folks maximize their investment with their horns. Why Klipsch ( and other manufacturers ) do not add damping material is understandable, because, they are " still " built to a ... | |
| Horn based loudspeakers why the controversy? Hopefully if this thread continues there will not be any trolling, just satisfied and happy horn owners. However, maybe a new thread with a different title, saying something like " To all horn owners ". Enjoy ! MrD. | |
| What speakers would be an upgrade from my klipsch la scallas and my Klipsch Chorus Wolf, the series II horns are the same way, with all of the ridges. Unlike Roxy, I feel it does need to be near perfect. Each piece needs to be cut identically ( per pair ) and adhered to each horn in the same area of the horn. This is why I say i... | |
| What speakers would be an upgrade from my klipsch la scallas and my Klipsch Chorus Wolf, yes, and a few pair of Cornwall IIIs( I have done many pair of various models ). Not difficult, but very labor intensive, but worth it. If you PM me, I can give you more info. Enjoy ! MrD. | |
| What makes a speaker sound great at low volume? Properly designed loudness controls, Schitt Loki, or another eq ( in the tape monitor loop ), would answer your concern. Headphones are another route to take. I am not a scientist, but been in this hobby for so long, these are my experiences. Spea... | |
| NuForce STA 200 Keep in mind the STA 200 amp has an input sensitivity of .45 volts and a gain of 34.5 db. It was designed with the intent of the user to feed straight into it, the Nuforce dac, which puts out just a bit under 1.5 volts. Using any preamp, with gain... | |
| Best Rocking Speakers 15K and Under @devaultcarl1, I do not think it is cool to promote selling products on the forums, although, Audiogon has lowered their standards on much of this. You need to post them on the " classifieds " side. This is just my opinion. Enjoy ! MrD. | |
