Crisis situation with a friend at work this week. He bent the cantilever on his Clearaudio Virtuoso cartridge. It's not fixable 😬. All is not lost though. He picked up a new Sumiko MC cartridge 😄. I gave him a hug and said my prayers are with you!

With tube amplifiers always try both.

Sparecantilever with needle for the Virtuoso are available here w/out any problems for 256 € Performer Needle grind , or 440€ for the Artist Needle grind. I´m suprised that Clearaudio as german manufacturer is known worldwide

I'm replacing the caps in my '89 Heresy IIs. Kind of a pain getting the board and caps off of the pcb but making progress. No real rush. A tip to add, though. I bought a cheap bottle of bright red fingernail polish. When you are sure of the positive connection.

I haven't had to buy one in 20 years (maybe because I switched to Bosch, or maybe I was just lucky?). Has anyone been in the market recently? There is a great deal of range to the Bosch line now. I like the ultra-quiet top end, but reliability and dry quality is always a factor. Thanks in advance. Travis

I got my first pair of Klipsch's about 9 months ago and I love them. They are all wood HIPs, with rounded corners and a cherry wood finish with silver metal woofer grills. I've seen lots of photos of HIP's but none that look quite like these, they look like they'd be at home in a bar or a burlesque stage. I love them but obviously can't compare them to any other Heresy's as I've never owned any others. The serial #s are 3446 and 3447. Any info on the manufacture date and where they originally sold would be much appreciated. Thanks!

I'm glad I found this thread... I just bought a pair of HII's but I just assumed they were 8 ohm (I know, rookie mistake) and it turns out they are 4 ohm... time to change where I have them connected to my tube amp....

These were 3 states away from me and a mess, as you can see. Being that they were in StLouis and I was in central KY, I called @MookieStl to see if he could grab them for me (Thanks again Mook). He said that they were what the pictures show, but I wanted them anyway (I was hoping for the best). I'll spare you the details of what it took to get them back to being bearable. They are not perfect and still have a couple of small chipped places. I swapped out a few parts, such as the K55 on the K700 and installed the K53H on the K701 horns. I still need to get the grills mounted too.

Seems like saw them somewheres...

I posted somewhere on here….

They typically put all the "good stuff" in the outer "U" of the store with produce on one side, dairy on the other and meats in the middle / back- everything in the center / middle of the store is processed junk.

I don't want my replacement sitting on my couch enjoying my stuff (a running joke in my household) 😁. I will sell them first, hopefully to a fellow forum member. You need a couple more?! @babadono

These are still available - anyone close by want them? Best reasonable offer!

Hello all, I am building a room above my garage (which is attached to my house) that is going to be 22x23. I am planning on putting a pair of klipschorns in the corners (outside wall away from the rest of the house). The ceilings are 9' for four feet around the edge of the room and they extend to 10' in the middle. This room partially sits over our bedroom as well (just a little) How do I best dampen the sound from traveling along the joists and walls to the rest of the house? I am planning on double studding the wall(s) that the K horns are using to help with bass extension. Would insulating with sound damping insulation hurt the bass. I'm thinking thick insulation between the first and second floor? Thank you so much for your thoughts.

These can drop right in too if you're brave enough for the ultimate sound experience...the Blipsch!

Insulating your floor and interior walls with mineral wool (Roxul Saf-N-Sound for example) will reduce the sound outside the room and help the bass inside the listening room. Also, you should read up about techniques for using mass loaded vinyl or applying something like Green Glue and a second layer of sheetrock.

Just in case you thought Cassettes were dead... Fiio puts that rumor to bed. Fiio has been killing it lately.

It’s normally better to start a new thread, but not a big deal. I’m not an expert in Khorn pricing but there are several here who will help you out.

LOL IDK, maybe the big tree over the deck to take out the living room and buy me a new one? paying debts.

833A single end amplifier, and 2A3 preamplifier.

Another BBA fan. I have his rack and an amp stand. Good stuff.

Some might find them ugly, but I like the figured woods.

I made so 1.5" tall risers to protect the bottoms. (they are hurt from abuse)

I am using a pair of KM6s (bought from the PX) as rear surrounds. They are great speakers! GLWTS!
