I don't believe they've been designed to do that for a long time. Each iteration has been designed to be Klipsch's best for the given size. And for sure the new one is better than the previous model... more even frequency response, better polars, lower distortion and better phase response. While we can blah, blah, blah about incorporating the diy crowds innovations, they are , in fact, a totally engineered solution by Klipsch.4 points

Looks great but I would not want to deal with that level of crazy. Something wrong there, you would think the cold would have visible effects.3 points

okie dokey that'll cure ya ... or kill ya a subtle thrill seeker. Some folks need near death experience to appreciate life? I remember some German guests at a campground where I worked a long time ago.... We were sitting around the pool [unheated] in coats, it was winter.... These folks wandered up and jumped it. Water temp was 50` or so. "oh, isn't this is lovely" In HI, we didn't swim in the winter. The water was too cold... 70` Had a hankering for home fries and eggs for breakfast. The potatoes were almost perfect. Golden, some crisp/crunchy. Forgot how long it takes to do them proper. I about died of hunger waiting. I was hungry NOW!3 points

them gals been eatin' too much spinach We have weather! Started right on cue. 11AM/ Light rain and thunder. Had me scrambling to get the wood ricked up and covered. Gathered a nice load w/o leaving "town". Wife doesn't like me going cutting solo. If something would happen, it would be BorderPatrol or smugglers to find me no cell coverage where I normally go. Wind is huffing and puffing.... from the south. Still warm/ish 55`. That's as good as it gets today. Cold front blowing thru today. All the curtain/plastic on the windows made a difference in the sound. Almost wanna bump the treble up. just checking cl. A pair of LS $1800 local. Wife and I are getting along good ... maybe a good time to test the waters? She'd shoot me3 points

As someone who started at the cheap end (minidsp) and then a little better (dbx), and then FINALLY ending with the Xilica 4080 do yourself a favor and save up and get the xilica. By the time I got to the Xilica I had wasted the difference in cost in upgrading ..and the Xilica rocks. I am biamping jbl 2446h on large format jbl horns with dual 18 " jbl lowers and with REW and xilica it only took me about a week of playing with it to get it figured out and the results are phenomenal, i'll never go passive again unless forced to.2 points

I don't think that anyone has stated the DIY projects were "the reason" for the new line, but I believe some of those, myself included, believe that due to the popularity of those projects that it is possible that additional looks/research/product updates were made. Why that is so funny I don't understand. Customer feedback, both positive or negative should be held as very important to any well run company.1 point

Hope that things work out well, Mike. This is a hobby--not a profession--so I understand your time limitations. Chris P.S., if you want to discuss this subject more, perhaps a PM is the best way to go.1 point

My lips are sealed. You could take an interest in Chinese movies from the '70s which have overdubbed English! In all seriousness I feel for your dilemma. Does anybody have to market a standalone device which specifically deals with delaying one or the other content, I wonder? If not, it seems like it could be a worthwhile undertaking, financially speaking...1 point

Greetings from Edina - I had a call from Patrick W... today about your EV horns & drivers - told him to run not walk! He's heard my ALTEC Mantarays outdoors a few times - I explained they were developed by the same team as your EV's. I helped him sell a pair of ALTEC Magnificents a few years ago, and we became friends. Good luck with your sale!1 point

About time they ported the Heresy. Sounds like Claude's super Heresy design got around enough for somebody from Klipsch to notice.1 point

B&C audio out of Italy and have UK distributor. I use their 12 in woofer in Heresy set, and many folks, including me, use their tweeter drivers. Mid range also available but not as widely used, but certainly worth checking if more local to you. Keep us posted with your project.1 point

Mike, When I get the necessary hardware, I plan to do the FIR filtering trick on the Jubs, K-402-MEH, and/or AMT-1s with Belle bass bins (i.e., I'm pretty sure that the miniDSP 2x4 HD I have doesn't have nearly enough taps to flatten the phase outside of the crossover interference band--so I'm going to need JRiver or something like that with a dedicated PC to do the convolution engine duties). I don't expect that the audible difference is going to be very much when I try FIR filters, as discussed in the article that you linked just above. I think that minimum phase is probably much closer to where you want to be--as posted in the "Subconscious Auditory Effects of Quasi-Linear Phase Loudspeakers" thread. When you're within 45 degrees of flat phase (i.e., zero relative phase across the listening band--not linear phase) and group delay below 1 ms everywhere (psychoacoustic smoothing) above the Schroeder frequency of the room--nominally 150--200 Hz, I think that you're already well within the ear's discrimination of phase or group delay distortion threshold. This is just like being within 90 degrees of correct time alignment at the crossover interference band. I think that people are going overboard with the linear phase requirement--more than the ear can discriminate. Chris1 point

WVU gave you the short & sweet answer, if it sounds too good to be true, it probably is. Nice miss on the scam. Glad your radar went off. As you can see, there are plenty of experienced sellers here on the Klipsch forum.1 point

There is a house in the area that is noteworthy as it is the only one with a stone facade and a few additional features as well, including this Dragon head.1 point

My new, previously owned K-402 horn(s). Just sitting on some rolling carts in the garage. The included passive networks are crossed a bit high and therefore not exactly correct for using with the K-horn bass bin network, but it sounds very impressive anyway. Will probably active tri-amp these, after they settle into a fixed location. Edit: I looked up the crossover specs for the intended cinema application and it appears that the passive crossover on these K-402 will work okay with the K-horn bass bin.1 point

You can actually buy the horn kit, it comes in a bunch of pieces. You have to glue it together, and then the fun starts. Sanding and finishing is very hard work, and takes a long time to get right. I have never seen one done the way I did it? Here is a pic of the innards. This is the finest version of this speaker that you will ever see. Never seen one built better? Regards,,jon1 point
