    Spied: More palladium photos

    Very, very nice looking indeed.  These are not final by any means, but look much nicer than the first photo from the press release.

    I saw a single Palladium speaker on a rotating turntable at the Klipsch booth at CEDIA. It looked great. Looking at the mid horn was like looking down the throat of a jet turbine. Very neat looking. I couldn't see where the speaker terminals were though...

    I found a picture of that.

    I don't remember who said it but I think they were right. The grain would look much cool if it flowed all the way around the speaker instead of grain going to different directions. They are pretty not quite fully horn loaded but I'll listen to them when they are at a demo room in town.
    "First off, I don't even consider myself a member of the general public. I know that my own requirements in a loudspeaker are those I've discussed. judging from what contact I have with the general public, though, I conclude that 99 percent of the general public doesn't even know what accuracy of reproduction is. My company is for the one percent composed of perfectionists who buy these expensive speakers." PWK

    I agree!  Maybe it could also work if all the grain were vertical, like the K-horn's front panel echoed on the sides of the top hat.

    When I first saw these, I thought the same thing....but the more I look, the more I love them as they are.   I love the originality.  I really wish you guys could see in person.  Photos just don't do them justice  Smile

    Re: Spied: More palladium photos

    Finally a speaker line for people like me who want the best of the Klipsch strong points and the looks...not a large fridge shaped speakers utility speakers! Bravo Klipsch

     

    I will be "very" interesting in the mid or even the large Palladium. I hope they are linear and easy to drive because I have some special amps I could power them with. Big Smile

     

    Any shots of the drivers to tempt the interested a bit more?

    The spies come and go when they please, no driver pics yet unless someone from Klipsch wants to post them here?

    For my part I thought the original veneer pictures were "eh", but the dark cherry and espresso finishes really look great.

    I like the espresso, striking but not too much contrast. Those are 1" ply cabinets guys!

    Is that three 8's, three 10's and three 12's? I would imagine those things could hit pretty hard! :-)
