Klipsch!. The worst speaker company, EVER?
@wolf, I hope you aren't still angry with me. @thehorn, I think you are pretty ignorant, and no question opinionated. Every speaker ever made, whether Klipsch or otherwise, shows a compromise in some way. Every speaker is made to a price point, an... 
Klipsch!. The worst speaker company, EVER?
Schubert, I know you were not kidding, which is why I responded. I an guessing, you never set up a pair ( or heard a pair ) in a consumers home, using proper electronics ( back then Mcintosh tube gear was the match ), and heard them play symphony ... 
Klipsch!. The worst speaker company, EVER?
Schubert ( and others that do not like Klipsch, or horns for that matter ), and what speakers are you listening to ? It is interesting, that from another room, my updated and modified Lascalas can sound like a live band, or orchestra, is in there ...

rubbersoul66, You meant to say " does NOT get damaged ". 
Klipsch!. The worst speaker company, EVER?
To clear the air, PWK designed the 5 original Heritage models, which are the Klipschorn, Belle, Lascala, Cornwall and Heresy ( and, all to a particular price point ). 
Klipsch!. The worst speaker company, EVER?
Interesting that he is saying " if you like female vocal, like Diana Krall, or other female vocals like her, I can see using this speaker ".  
Another "Help me choose my speakers" thread
First of all, try to listen to as many as you can, since it is easy for us to recommend what we own or like. We are all different. On that note, look for a pair of " B " stock Klipsch Heresy IIIs. They will work with your Marantz ( very efficiant ...

" They really do have the potential of being great tube amps ". Do not understand what this means., as they are Class H, high powered ss amps..….. 
Does my amp have enough juice to power my speakers?
Schubert, at almost 65, I am experiencing some age and time related issues. Fortunately for me, my ears are still going strong. I traveled the NYC subway system for years; was in a band; a choir; was in the audio business; been listening since 7 y...

If anyone is interested ( and this applies to anything ), you can open up, go inside of the sys, and Dynamat the circuit board and some of the chassis, as you will hear a significant improvement in detail and resolution. It will also add some weig... 
One Amp To ‘Rule’ Them All....
One preamp to rule them all; one dac to rule them all; one speaker to rule them all; one transport to rule them all, tt, tonearm, cartridge, pc, interconnect, speaker cable, isolation devices, and on, and on and on. Are you kidding ? 
Looking for more transparency.

Which speakers for a Yamaha A-S2000
As someone who has a few sets of Heresy and other Klipsch Heritage models, a good, clean ss amp can sound excellent with them. I love good Klipsch horns ( I am a modifier of them ), and gave up on tubes a long time ago. Your Yamaha would be fine, ... 
Does my amp have enough juice to power my speakers?
My modified Klipsch Lascalas do not need much power, but when I listen to certain music, at certain levels ( 100db peaks and above ), my ears do appreciate a larger, higher wattage amp. My ears check out fine, btw. Of course I am talking about goo... 
Nuforce STA200
The first thing to do would connect the Sys, direct, play music of all types that you often listen to ( I do say give it about a weeks time ), and determine if you like it, better, or not. My Luminous ( $1250 ) is quite a bit " cleaner " than the ...
