So are these the speakers that just needed breaking in, or are there two LaScala posts and I'm confused. Nice to see a favorable mention of Crites. -

I don't want to forget- I told Bob that the only way I figured it out was with the help of the forum! -
001- Thank you for supplying the final clue! Slowly and gently is an understatement. Snug fit! I measured continuity from each speaker terminal to either side of the diaphragm. However, I measured open across the diaphram. There's a light film on the diaphragm wires that blocks the probe. I razored off a small point. Same condition on both drivers K55X. Called Klipsch for replacements, got 3 speaker supply references, only one, Midwest Spkr, carried them and there was a waiting list. The tech Dave was very knowledgeable and helpful and directed me to Bob Crites. Had a very informative discussion with Bob, particularly my testing and diagnosis. While we were talking he went into the back and got a K55X driver. Sent me pictures and walked me through. He agreed that is likely the problem. DISCLAIMER: I do not hold him to that. Phenomenal phone service! The short version is I can send the old drivers for repair or purchase new drivers. I don't know what forum etiquette is about mentioning prices, but either way it's only a few hundred dollars. Shockingly reasonable! The owner of these speakers inherited a big stack of great equipment. They're leaning towards keeping the speakers now. I would recommend the new ones especially since the difference is only $110. My thanks to all of you who have contributed your knowledge and experience to guide me through this. I was amazed at how many and how fast the responses were.

As wuzzer said, no. That is not what that pre-out is meant to do. You would best be served by upgrading your AVR to a unit with cleaner power, and possibly some pre-outs for expansion later. -
Also sent you a PM -
