Re: What's a NIB KHorn like?

Your first listening impressions PLEASE!? Firing up a set of your very own long-yearned-for Klipschorns is like first solo in an airplane. An unforgettable moment that you'll long remember in detail. Bear in mind that Khorns are very amplifier sensitive and they require a while to break in. So, your...

Re: What's a NIB KHorn like?

Been there done that so to speak when my new '03's arrived that year. See pic. The two bass bins are stacked vertically to the left, the midrange-and-treble units on the right. The dealer, about 30 miles away from my home at the time, had special-ordered them for me and he and his assistant delivered...

Multichannel receiver recommendations for Klipschorn + Belle system?

I have a dedicated audio system of two 2003 Klipschorns and a 2004 Belle center channel. Some of you may recall my saga told here of frustration with several newer home theater receivers (designed for use with powered subwoofers) in that the Khorns sound bass-shy and and thin with them. So, I am running...

Re: Thought you'd be interested (Klipschorn review)

I ought to note that the Velodyne sub mentioned in my system profile is there but rarely used. You can see the sub peeking out beside the filing cabinet at the lower left of the photo. It's connected to the "B" front speaker outputs of the Pioneer. But I switch it in only for below-35-hz...

Thought you'd be interested (Klipschorn review)

I was noodling on epinions.com and happened across three Klipschorn reviews there. The third, posted by a person who had often heard Khorns but did not own them, was somewhat negative. I posted a reply review to that whose text is repeated below. The pic is a current one of my array here in Delmar. ...

Re: Khorns with Sub

Try it you may like it. Seriously, Khorns are very amplifier-sensitive. Run with a good compatible amplifier they don't need a sub and you will get the advantage of their very tight, fast, full bass. My challenge though has been running them in a three-channel audio setup with a Belle center, ergo...

New to me 1976 Klipschorns

So I finally got a pair of Khorns. 1976 models. Freshly refinished and they look really nice in the room. I have wanted a pair of these since 1990 when I discovered them while buying a pair of KG-4's. I have used Technics, Onkyo, Sony and Adcom equipment on the KG-4's and have always been impressed...

Need an advice on a speaker cable, please!

Hi All, This is my first post here, and I need your help I run a pair of Klipschorns on a high-quality custom-made tube amp (45 triodes). I am looking for a cable to connect them (right now I have a temporary solution). I want something that fits the "warm" sounding of the system I have (not...

Re: P39 or Jubilee's---------HELP!!!!

I agree...I get more joy out of three hours of Muay Thai than I get out of any speaker. My mom has 1962 KHorns, I own a new RF/RC/RW system, I like it better than my Heresy II's, regardless a speaker system to faithfully reproduce movie and music soundtracks, which it does. full stop. It neither...
