I have a pair of Klipsch Chorus I for sale in very good condition in the DFW area. I replaced the tweeters with Dave A's Mahl lens and I have the originals as well. I rebuilt the crossovers recently with the klipsch recommended parts. They sound amazing and I truly love them and have no desire to replace them but sadly I am having to downsize, and bookshelves/stand mounts are my future. I am asking $1,300.00. I no longer have the original boxes so shipping is not something I can provide. -
That's true with most if not all pro-amps. Crown happens to be at or near the top of the heap in this area. As far as sound quality among pro-amps go, Macrotech and K2 are right up there if not the best. -
it folks seem to be a bit more concerned with output per dollar spent, value, when they talk about Crown. -
My porch system is exposed to large temperature variations, dust, pollen, and indirect moisture. That can and has played hell with consumer electronics. The Crown amps take it in stride. -
Another K2 user here. Have three of them, one for each underground Jube and one, bridged for the Danley. I had never heard of them and a former, forum member told me to try one as they were very musical and quiet (because of no fan). That is a paraphrase of his comment. Grabbed a couple and have zero issues/complaints. Now, in the beginning, I discovered if I had their gains cranked up, I'd hear spittle from the 402 driver. Also figured out that doing that used less of the upstream signal. Flipped it around and now, the amps are around 5 clicks from zero and I'm using more of the upstream signal and, they are dead quiet if you stick your ear in the horn (the spittle is gone) they are quiet because of no fan noise..... and if you want to get stupid, they can take the volume to stupid by simply adjusting the gains up. Don't really need K2's but that's what was available when I got them. I got the third K2 simply to match the first two. System would (probably, since I've never tried)....anyway, system would probably be just as quiet, sound just as good and go just as stupid loud if I had used K1's. I'd say, try one (if a single can work for you, if you biamp you'd obviously need two OR just use it for the bottom end) Anyway, try one.... they're not horribly expensive and you can resell them. Mine replaced a dbx BX1 on the bass bins and a McIntosh MC-2102 on the high end.... both gone, great sound and the cash in pocket was also nice. -

Yes... my 11 year old Emotiva XPA 5 that I bought second hand has Cap discharge issues on 2 of the 5 channels. My Rotel 2 channel amp started having issues, but to be fair, that is about 20 years old. Now, on the other hand, my 25+ year old Crown Comtech 1600 and several 400's along with my 3 crown k2's and k1 still work perfectly. Not a single failure out of any of those amps. -
I use all 3255 derivatives for my 8 surround channels on Heresys. -
I use those as well. PA-5 and I have Hypex NC-400's too 10 year anniversary!

I'm no master carpenter or haven't done woodworking for 30 years but I glued the inside of my 30's (braces included) with PL Premium X2. That stuff ain't going nowhere. Cures hard as concrete.
