starting to feel a little tropical. Humidity has broken into two digits. 10 - 15%. Y'all are going to laugh at what we call humid. 30% is high for us. It will rain, if it gets there. And the swamp box cooler stops working. We don't have... Funny thing. We don't need cooling until the humidity goes up... that when the cooler stops. I would like to have one, just to used the forced air ventilation. When the humidity is low, it get cold at night. Then warms/cools very fast. It is nice to help the exchange.3 points

Checked them out along with the di-pole surrounds and matching center speakers. He’s also selling a big Denon AV receiver from that era as a package deal. I’m only interested in the KLF-30’s and made him an offer. Original owner, very nice condition with just some very minor issues. Black finish so flaws are easy to cover. Serial number says they are from mid-year 1998. Everything works and sounds great! Hopefully he will accept my offer.3 points

SOLD I am the third owner, and since I purchased approx. 3 years ago, it has very few hours on it. I have acquired far too much gear and it's time to let it go. The person I received it from had a restoration done by a gentleman of the name Alan LaBorne. This was a complete restore of all boards, caps, main filter caps, total cleaning of all switches and pots, and refinish of the walnut case. Output transistors are matching. Custom stainless steel end caps were installed. This unit sounds fantastic and the build quality is second to none. This will easily drive two pairs of speakers at the same time, and has connections for 3 pair. $1250 plus shipping. Located in NW Indiana. Please PM with questions or interest. Thanks. Specs: Power output: 160 watts per channel into 8Ω (stereo) Frequency response: 10Hz to 50kHz Total harmonic distortion: 0.1% Damping factor: 30 Input sensitivity: 6.5mV (mic), 2.5mV (MM), 150mV (DIN), 150mV (line) Signal to noise ratio: 75dB (MM), 90dB (line) Output: 150mV (line), 30mV (DIN), 1V (Pre out) Speaker load impedance: 4Ω (minimum) Dimensions: 556 x 186.5 x 464.5mm Weight: 29.2kg2 points

Yeah, I actually called and spoke with the seller at MusicGoRound and he said they tested everything and they are fully functional, they just don't post all that on the site. From the description I assumed at that price it was just a single so for a pair of KP-201 in tested condition I figure was well worth the purchase2 points

Turned out to be a nice deal. Wow. that $149 was for a pair. Should be shipped out tomorrow. Thanks for posting this alert! Tim2 points

I figured I'd write up something on this unit since it's fairly new still. Earlier this year, my Fusion 8100 suffered a nasty fault that it wouldn't come out of. It had been on its last legs for a while, and after having issues with another Fusion, I had kicked around the idea of jumping ship from Emotiva. I decided though, that I'd give them one last chance as my entry point to separates. So I went with an MC-700 preamp, and to power the speakers in my setup that weren't powered by stereo amps or monoblocks, I went with a UPA-500. This combination was a mistake. The UPA was flaky, and while it was by no means a slouch, it made my RS-3's struggle, to keep up with the main stage, while starving the RC-7 for power. The exact opposite of what I wanted. The MC-700 was a train wreck interface wise, and between it and the Fusion, I will never own an Emotiva system with any kind of digital interface ever again. Things I was looking for: - Power to supply to the RC-7, and 4 RS-3's in my configuration. - Tuner - 4K Video Processing - Halfway decent processing without breaking the bank Outboard amplification that was staying included a UPA-2, and an XPA-2. The sources included a turntable off of a Schiit Mani, an Oppo BDP-103, a Dell computer, 3 Playstations (2, 3, 4) and an Xbox 360. EQ would also address the RB-5's, RF-3 II's, and the RSW-15. I picked up this unit on Accessories4Less - the DRX-3.1. Having previously moved a system from a Fusion 8100 to an Integra unit, I had fairly high expectations, since I knew the DTR series was more than capable to make the Heresy I's sound good, and the DTM series was handling a newly modified pair of Heresy II. My focus has been shifting around from 20-40% movies to 60-80% music, so my criticality came into play with music. Unlike the DT series of systems, the DRX doesn't pretend that Spotify is built into the unit, it tells you up front that it's through Spotify Connect, the rest of the streaming features included Pandora, Tune In, Tidal, and a few others. The big kicker was Chromecast being built in. Fantastic for most (but I do have my computer). The interface out of the box was much more pleasing and easy to understand than the Emotiva's was. I had no problems navigating the screens, and understanding what each screen was came much more naturally. The first thing I noticed was that unlike my MC-700, the DRX-3.1 was passing a fully fledged 4K picture to the screen. The computer is fully 4K, and previously I had frequent issues with the screen resolution cycling to 1920x1080, but with the DRX-3.1 that resolution is forced to run at 4096x2140. The Oppo also detected this change, where it would default to 1920x1080 on the MC-700 as well. The computer also recognized that the Integra was ready to process an Atmos signal. I don't grade the MC-700 hard on that since it wasn't Atmos enabled, but it was nice to see that out of the box, the Integra was sending and receiving all of the right signals. Power wise, I was pleasantly surprised. The Integra is rated at 100 WPC with 2 channels driven from 20 Hz to 20 kHz. The total power output is around 530 W, so my total WPC with 5 channels driven is probably around 60 or 70 - similar to the Fusion 8100. However, it seems to drive the speakers with quite a bit more ease than the Fusion 8100 did, and certainly better than the UPA-500. The unit weighs a meager 26 lbs, with a smaller power supply - however, it easily delivers power more effectively than the 35 lb Emotiva AVR, and the 28 lb Emotiva amp did. EQ - I almost always run flat. I don't like adjusting the spectrum if I don't have to, and I was happy to say with the Integra that continued. However, the bass management of the Integra seems to drive the MR and LR much better than even my old Yamaha's did. It's tamed the RSW-15 to a considerable degree, and doesn't seem to cause quite the rattling punch that previous units kicked to the sub. This is a welcome change, as the LFE spectrum is still delivered in its entirely, but the Integra's ability to filter out any noise that might get spit out anywhere in the signal makes the bass a much smoother sounding experience. Overall at first full 24 hours of handling, I'm surprised. I would have expected a pre/pro/power amp configuration to outperform a mid-level AVR, but Integra has surprised me on at least 3 other occasions. Ultimately, what it comes down to is that the Integra is a much more refined product capable of putting out sufficient power to drive Reference II series speakers, and an EQ and sound profiling that is more than adequate, especially compared to other units in its price range. The company is batting 1.000 with me right now, and that's more than I can say for Yamaha, Denon, Marantz, or Emotiva.2 points

Wouldn't know anything about low humidity ? Well when it gets cold at night dress in layers, 2-3 sarongs would probably help instead of one ? Just not going to lert that die, it's just funny but really you just live in the wrong place. If you lived in Hawaii no one would look twice at you in a sarong, well if you looked like an Hawaiian native, might have to bulk up a little, like X2-3.2 points

Cornwall III now uses the horn from the Heresy. If the mid-horn was bigger, I think the comparison would be closer to fair. I've heard the Cornwall III several times, and was never particularly impressed. I even consistently picked the RF-7 over the Cornwall III in a blind test in Indy after it was first reintroduced.2 points

No actual reviews of Heritage though: - La Scala II semi reviewed by Sam T - Made recommended components restricted lf class A - Palladium P-39 reviewed and loved- Made recommended components restricted lf Class A - Palladium P-17b reviewed and loved - Made recommended components restricted lf class A Seems focus is on newer style speakers but Klipsch had made a presence.

Sorry about your bad luck. Maybe you could keep it, clean it up a bit, and negotiate a partial refund or a credit towards a future purchase with that distributor. What main speakers are you using? Are you able to consider getting the RP-450C? Bill1 point

Nice For me max volume is 90% of what I have ever played . It's rare that I don't incorporate max volume with whatever I like at the time . That being said , I am really into manic tempo and drive and always have been but especially now . More interested in something that gets me off my *** than makes me ponder what if 🙃 I don't remember if I was 12 or 13 depending on when this came out but Santana's Open Invitation was playing at a max volume loop within my nogin on a regular basis https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xjiJeNNeVYw&list=LLAKTmVmCGL-lsPSetlBIpXg&index=7&t=0s1 point

Does anyone use Yahoo messenger for emails? Did you get a notice saying that they are shutting that service down on July 17, 2018? Wow what a PITA to change all addresses linked to your email....bank, brokerage, FB, contacts and on and on. Any tips on a better way to make the change? Wonder if I will lose my post count here after I reactivate my account? After a little search I think the message just referred to the mobile app! What a relief!1 point

Hope Y'all don't mind - but I'm just going to keep updating this thread as I work on the K-Horns... I'll get some detail pics soon, but I started piecing the hats together today. Several angle brackets got the sides attached and then I test fit the top and grille. I also installed all teh side covers. Planning to continue with small angle brackets and screws and once its all back together, then I'll glue where the breaks occurred. Pics: Horns with TV and AV rack before: With right side hat installed and sides installed:1 point

There was a time that I had 20's, 30's and 7's all in the same room at the same time. As far a two-channel listening goes, the 7's were never even in contention. Too harsh on the top end and while their bass was adequate, it was wimpy compared to the KLF's. At that time I preferred the sound quality of the 20's. They were sweeter mainly because the bass was punchier. Otherwise they sounded like 30's......but smaller sounding. Fast forward seven years or so and my 30's with the 'Ultimate' upgrades sound, bass wise....much more like the 20's but on steroids. To be honest, when I had the 7's I liked them despite the harsh top end. However, that day that I brought the 30's home and listened to both side by side, the 7's were kind of a joke in comparison. The 30's walked all over them that day. Sad but true. Sent from my SM-G950U using Tapatalk1 point
