    Hopefully, you will do some documenting their prearrival, arrival, setup & then sound differences for us!

    Sooooooo, have you or your wife thought this through & figured out where you're going to move your Khorns?

     

    Professor Thump told me to take a Custom 3 and stick it in my ear. I did...and it sounded great!!!

    Congrats, Paul!  You now own the best speakers available in the audio world, imho.  You will soon discover, as did I, that the Klipschorn Jubilee is not just an improvement on the K-Horn (which I owned for many years), but is on an entirely different level.  The 402 on top presents an extraordinary HF combo that delivers an image stage and accuracy unlike anything else I have ever experienced.  Paul and Roy certainly succeeded in their quest to take the venerable K-Horn to the next level.

    I hope your bride enjoys listening to them as much as mine does.

    It would have been really nice if the k-horn Jub's could have been finished up in time to be the 60TH edition as planed ! But it is well worth the wait to get that kind of sound however long it takes !

    Does this mean you will be changing your screen name ? Or does it depend on how they sound, ok never mind on that. Maby " Me loves klipschorn Jub's " ?

    Can't wait to hear what your wife thinks of the sound !

    Paul,

    Congratulations on the Jubs. You obviously have a pretty spectacular wife, too.

    When it comes to Jubs, hearing is believing...

    Happy new year to you and yours,

    No what this means is the "Me loves Heresy" is going to be "Me love Klipschorn".

    Enjoy them.

    Everything. OK! I'll talk! In third grade, I cheated on my history exam. In fourth grade, I stole my uncle Max's toupee and I glued it on my face when I was Moses in my Hebrew School play. In fifth grade, I knocked my sister Edie down the stairs and I blamed it on the dog... When my mom sent me to the summer camp for fat kids and then they served lunch I got nuts and I pigged out and they kicked me out... But the worst thing I ever done - I mixed a pot of fake puke at home and then I went to this movie theater, hid the puke in my jacket, climbed up to the balcony and then, t-t-then, I made a noise like this: hua-hua-hua-huaaaaaaa - and then I dumped it over the side, all over the people in the audience. And then, this was horrible, all the people started getting sick and throwing up all over each other. I never felt so bad in my entire life. - "Chunk" / The Goonies
