| What does one purchase after owning horns? My Lascala's have been with me longer than any other speakers and / or gear for my main listening room. Other things have come and gone, but they have proven the test of time, and, enjoyment. | |
| Best of luck to Brian Kyle of Xtreme Cables Best wishes go out to Brian and his family. | |
| For all you Clapton fans.... Marakanetz, I am the one who mentioned it 1st. Duh ? It is all good. And yes, there is a Mrs., so you will not be playing for me. Sorry. LOL | |
| Mapleshade tweaks Zman, I have been away from this thread for a few days. I am not bothered in the least by what Rccc said. I want to make it clear that in this game of audio, our ears are the most important tools to make judgements and develop opinions. Facts have... | |
| For all you Clapton fans.... Marakanetz, I was not attacking you. I did feel you were a bit critical of EC for not being "virtuoso". However, you did change the direction of this thread......If you really sound like EC, can I be one of your girls and be played and sung to. LO... | |
| What does one purchase after owning horns? Paulfolbrect, I was referring to the width/length of the horn/throat. I admit that the construction can be better. When you had the Khorns/Lascalas did you do any damping to the mid horn (and cabinets). Every pair I was ever involved with, after d... | |
| Are The Klipsch Heritage Series Really Worthy? Macdadtexas, you speak the truth ! If I had the luxury to build a room around Khorns, and to "get them and the room right",I definitely would. This is a reason for the popularity of the Lascala. Most Lascala owners would own Khorns otherwise, ime.... | |
| What does one purchase after owning horns? Shadorne, Klipsch uses the "non aggressive" horn type you mention. However, because of the horn type AG uses, I find the seated distance between them and the listener needs to be greater,ime. However I have "heard" this rule be broken in many case... | |
| For all you Clapton fans.... Marakanetz, you brought up the term virtuoso. One does not need to be virtuoso to be enjoyed, as everyone on this thread is indicating. EC blues, I mean rocks ! | |
| What does one purchase after owning horns? Just an add on. I have always placed dynamic range as the most important virtue of any system. However, prat is very very close in importance to me . I need to follow the "playing" of the musicians. There is tonal coherence and agility coherence. ... | |
| What does one purchase after owning horns? Atmasphere, I appreciate your response. And yes, the ears are what we use to determine the sound we like. I always found that inefficient speakers (I owned many and am familiar with many)required an amp with greater damping, and in my experience, ... | |
| Are The Klipsch Heritage Series Really Worthy? Reading my post after the fact, I wanted to clarify something. The basement experience I talk about had the "original" corners way too far apart. The "secondary" corners that were "built" along that same wall were to bring them closer together, wi... | |
| What does one purchase after owning horns? I find damping characteristics audible with all kinds of music, with all kinds of speaker/amp combos. How and why it all works, I will leave that to others here, who go beyond having just ears, such as myself. | |
| Are The Klipsch Heritage Series Really Worthy? JohnK. I want to first say that Khorns are EXCELLENT, but very limited because of the corner placement necessary, for me anyway. The build and makeup of the walls(home construction) can make or break some of their magic, keeping in mind that I lis... | |
| Are The Klipsch Heritage Series Really Worthy? Dirtbag, too bad many people do not give The Lascala II a fair chance or take them seriously. At their price point I do not think there is a better speaker out there(IMO). Even though the bass horn is small(rolling off the last octave), there is a... |
