Hi all, ended up selling them in less than 24 hours to someone for $3250 though I had several other buyers interested in coming by for $3500. Thanks for all the input!

Lagging -- One method to use is with a distribution panel and impedance matching volume controls. I used this in a previous house, two speakers at the patio and two in the kitchen ceiling. Used a Dayton class D amp. Had a 4 post speaker wall panel that had multiple outputs on the rear. Run speaker connections to the volume control (one for each set of speakers) and then on to the speakers. Set the number of speakers/load at the volume control. Powered all four with a Dayton class D amp. Am doing the same at the house we just moved to. Using a monoprice 8 pair distribution panel. Feed that with a Aiyima A7 amp. From the left - distribution panel - Aiyima - amp power - DAC - not seen raspberry Pi Only the porch speakers wired currently, the kitchen is being renovated starting in a few week so hope to have the ceiling speakers install in the next couple of months. The raspberry runs a spotify connect client (raspotify) so I can run things from my phone (via the LAN) or use RDP to use VLAN to play ripped tunes from the connected USB SSD

Dear all, I am a happy owner of a pair of RF-52 to listen music. No TV set at home only music! These are my first real speakers. I had the chance to receive a turntable as a gift from my family. I added the Klipsch after several advices read on the internet. Today I am looking for the best amp association (quality/price ratio. I cannot go for a MacIntosh at 9k$) The room is 40m2 ~ 430square ft. Walls and roof : plasterboard Floor: tiles A lot of furnitures : sofas, guitars, some portraits on the wall and hundreds of books. Music : jazz / piano (Gogo Pinguin, Gauthier Toux, Hiromi…) and some metal prog with complex recordings (Dream Theater, Tool…). Which amp would you consider ? Here are some ideas but I am really open to new stuff: - Nad C389 (1300€ a bit pricey) - Roksan K2 used or k3 (too expensive for me). - Rega Brio : affordable amp but no possibility to listen to my Deezer HD music. - Cambridge CXA81 : 1000€ or 1300€ for the Mk II version. Quite pricey as well. - Advance Paris X-i75 : affordable and looks well equipped for 700€ - NuPrime IDA8: looks good too! Many thanis in advance. Best regards Benoit

I picked up a pair of well-worn Klipsch KG^2 bookshelf speakers for my office Waxed the walnut veneer with some Briwax and got the cabinets looking great again Ordered titanium tweeters from Crites speakers Now I need three capacitors for the crossover network: 4 uF 8 uF 24 uF I can solder but I know nothing about different types of capacitors and the relative cost-to-value What is a good value option for these speakers?

I have trouble listening to Tom Waits, but when others do his songs, they can be magical. Rachael Price - I'm gonna take it with me.

Word to the wise....don't wait 20 or 30 years like I did to do room treatments. It turned out to be one of the greatest improvements I ever made/did. I mean after all you have the best speakers..don't stop there. I f you have been talking with @mikebse2a3 by PM, I'm pretty confident he is giving the same advice..and more

Happy life of the novice... No piles here yet. 😉

I just found a pair of seventy sevens in a box when I was going thru old stuff if you're in need...

These are walnut oiled. The pie-shaped logo was used from the early 60's until the early 70's. I don't have a solid confirmation of the latter date.

Cool!!

As far as the hissing sound- keep the amp on but shut off your source-CD, stream, MP3, whatever. If the sound disappears, it's your source device. Try it with all your sources to see if it's isolated to one or more sources. If the sound remains even after all your source devices are turned off, then it's your amp, receiver, etc. The reason you may hear the sound from the rear of the enclosure vs. the front is, the cavity of the enclosure acts like a horn itself, amplifying the sound. Since you don't hear it from the front, I don't see anything to worry about. As to the tweeters, you could disconnect the wires to the tweeter (pay attention which wire connected to which terminal so you can reconnect them properly) and put a voltmeter across the tweeter terminals. It should read roughly 8 ohms. If they read a very high number or no number at all, they're toast. You could then connect your voltmeter, set to AC volts, and attach the leads to the wires you disconnected from the tweeter. A pair of clip leads really helps here. Play some music and watch the voltmeter. It should bounce all over the place in response to the music. Watch the numbers and turn up the volume. The numbers should go up. Cool, right? It means the signal is getting to the tweeters.

You've been a member since 2016 and this is your first post? You'd do well in the Marshmallow Test. I know where one KV-4 is. I hate shipping large cabinets. What is your location?

Chill... One amazing song right here. So many are clueless... Nice read under the youtube post. Back in 1905 they were one of the best shows out there. Relax and let it ALL go! Their quad show in Cleveland @ Municipal Stadium was totally amazing. One the best rides I EVER took. 😂

Ugh... MORE piles!

Looking for a center channel KV-4. I see one on ebay right now but would like to find one with known history.

Yes.
