| Klipsch La Scala half-wall corners? The Lascala’s do not benefit with corners the way the Klipschorns do. You would still need a pair of very fast and tight subwoofers to extend the presentation to full range with the last octave. My opinion, and, my experience. Enjoy ! MrD. | |
| Speaker advice for listening to Blues music Maggies are not electrostatic designs. They are a planar; a panel speaker. Cedar, why not have 2 systems set up ( 2 amps, 2 pr speakers ) ?

| Speaker advice for listening to Blues music I also believe, that with you being on stage, playing through "equipment ", has a bit of a livelier, punchier, more dynamic sound, than many hifi systems, and, hifi speakers.

| Speaker advice for listening to Blues music Orange City, Florida, south a bit from Daytona Beach, off of I-4. Speaking of Alvin Lee. His " The Bluest Blues " is awesome.

| Speaker advice for listening to Blues music I will jump in for a moment. I am a Klipsch Heritage fanatic, going back to my youth ( mid 60s ). I agree that the Heresy will do well for you. But I am wanting to make a point. I own 3 sets of Heritage, currently ( 2 pr Heresy, 1 pr Lascala). Adm... | |

| Distortions that the human ear likes. Are there any ? Al, I think you hit the nail on the head. I believe the engineer was implying " deviation from accuracy ". This makes the most sense, and the dictionary says the same, and not just about audio. Al, I believe the question was answered. T.Y. Always,... | |
| Distortions that the human ear likes. Are there any ? Listen, " as far as I am concerned ", there are three distortions I am easily aware of, and I do not like any of them in a system. One, is obviously amplifier clipping, which is very unpleasant, and one that I personally, in my own system, I never... |
