| Vandersteen 3A Sigs vs Klipsch Forte III @heardthat, I do apologize......this thread should be about you, but, I am sure you are enjoying the readings. Always, MrD. | |
| Vandersteen 3A Sigs vs Klipsch Forte III Someone mentioned somewhere, that they put a dampening substance inside the horn throat to reduce coloration or resonance. I highly recommend against that. It should all be from the exterior of the horn. | |
| Carver Raven 350 Amps There are shorting plugs that accomplish both. | |
| Vandersteen 3A Sigs vs Klipsch Forte III I have owned all of the Klipsch models mentioned. I just recently sold, locally, a pair of self modified ( I modify everything ) Epic CF2s ( the best out of the 4 Epic models, imo ), but, just like the 2 pair of Heresys I still own, I was not list... | |
| Your Side by Side Experience With Best Vintage vs Newer Expensive Hi Tech Speakers @wester17 Updating the khorns, crossover rebuild, upgraded voicecoils, horn damping ( and some other damping ), and of course room corners, with the right equipment, are still hard to beat, for what they do best, but I am prejudiced. Of course, to... | |

| Vandersteen 3A Sigs vs Klipsch Forte III BTW....I was very familiar with the L 2030 models, and, wish I had a pair of those right now ( for a 2nd system ). Might need a crossover rebuild. | |
| Vandersteen 3A Sigs vs Klipsch Forte III Sorry for sounding " all that ". Audio has been my life. @heardthat....I wish you the best. | |
| Vandersteen 3A Sigs vs Klipsch Forte III @heardthat....Although I have not heard them, my many years of listening experience, speaker ownership, exposure to so much, as well as my understanding of all the review language given ( both professional and non professional ), I have some idea ... | |
| Vandersteen 3A Sigs vs Klipsch Forte III @tomic601 ...It’s all good. I want to get along with everyone. I am not surprised you do not use the JBL grills. Have the grills disintegrated, like mine have ? | |
| Vandersteen 3A Sigs vs Klipsch Forte III @tomic601 , I obviously hit a sore spot for you. You can question my hearing all you want. Dynamic compression in a speaker is not something I can live with. I meant no offense. Enjoy your system. I sure enjoy mine. MrD. | |
| Vandersteen 3A Sigs vs Klipsch Forte III Most of the speakers I have owned, disappeared, but most, never sounded like live music, nor, made my toes tap. I think the higher efficiency of the speaker has something to do with the dynamics one hears. Many are talking about the Tekton DI seri... | |
| Vandersteen 3A Sigs vs Klipsch Forte III @hifiman55. Secondary audio diffractions ? I do not hear any. Most speaker grill material will take care of that. That is the reason Thiel recommended leave the grills on. I actually prefer most speakers without grills, as they sound a bit more op... | |
| Vandersteen 3A Sigs vs Klipsch Forte III @heardthat.......Why I said " for what I enjoy ". I am in my 60s and have been at this recorded music listening hobby since my early teens. I was in the industry as well. Owned much of it, and heard much of it ( equipment / speakers, etc ). Always... |
