JADIS DEFY7, can not get it to sing
@mozartfan, you asked, so here it goes....I have kinda supported you throughout your journey, but I have to say ( and I do not mean any harm ), that, you are all over the place. Take a deep breath, relax, wait for the Leaf, as you did order it, an... 
Klipsch speaker choices
All good ! 
Klipsch speaker choices
BTW, the Heresy IVs will be incredible, imo.........but, if you have the room, and budget, the CW IV will be the finest, of all that were mentioned.

@daledeee1, damp the horns, using Dynamat, or a similar type material, as well as the woofer frames and cabinet panels, and things will smooth out and tighten up. @big_greg. Except for the removable back panels of the original Heresy and Cornwall,... 
Considering simplifying my system... talk me down (or whatever)
@cat345....Really ? A turbo designed set of Klipschorns, replaced by the Harbeths you recommended ? You need to listen to a pair of properly set up, properly driven Khorns. However, to each his / her own. Enjoy ! MrD. 
JADIS DEFY7, can not get it to sing
stereo5, whatever dude......handbags are an excellent example of copying a design. I see nothing wrong with it. It gives women, and possibly, some men, satisfaction, that they can own a $3500. look alike for under $100. If you look at the parts in... 
JADIS DEFY7, can not get it to sing
Stereo5, I feel your wording, and attitude, to be very offensive. That would be like me saying, I do not like the SQ of Mac amplifiers using autoformers ( which is true ), but, understand those that do like them, as yourself. I also feel all tube ... 
Dreaming of a DIY 8W Class A amp designed by Nelson Pass?
@erik_squires .....I will no longer give my time to you, or your threads....As I do not feel most of them are " worthwhile ", and you are, well, you can guess what I am thinking...............Happy ? Enjoy ! MrD.

@erik_squires , I do not need a response to my apology, but, you create more threads than anyone else here on the "Gon, which is " time ". I mentioned before to you, when do you take time to listen to music ? I " take " at least an hour a day. Enj...

@pinkyboy....how recently, did you do these mods and rebuilds of the Khorns ? Well done.....Why are you looking to simplify the number of components ? One power switch vs. three ? Warm up time ? Better SQ ? If you are happy, why change anything ? ...

@erik_squires then why start this thread ? 
Dreaming of a DIY 8W Class A amp designed by Nelson Pass?
@erik_squires time should not be an issue, as you can build it at your own pace. But energy.....yes, I understand that very well. At 65, my soldering skills ( eyesight, steady hands, and patience ), are not what they once were. Very different than... 
Dreaming of a DIY 8W Class A amp designed by Nelson Pass?
@grannyring that is true, but we all know what an over designed power supply can do for the sq of an amp ( any product, actually ). @erik_squires , as an individual who has not found Pass to be your cup of tea, I believe this ACA kit will change y... 
Exploring Preamp options for the Pass XA25
Coach, as you know, I truly am happy with my Luminous unit. The web site, on the ordering / building page, requires some information. ( 1 ) output voltage and impedance of sources ( 2 ) input sensitivity and input impedance of power amp ( 3 ) sens... 
The imperfect amp: Pass or Ayre?
Eric....selling cables ? you must have me confused with someone else, which is not a surprise.
