Just ordered a pair of CT120 tweeters for my LaScalas w/ALK Universal xovers. Looking forward to listening to them. Hoping to purchase a set of Fastrac Lascala horns early next year next.

Not sure if this has been posted or not. Came across this album/song on a record store day.

Here is my dream match for my LaScalas http://mcintoshlabs.com/specialedition/default.asp

Check out Andy Timmons <http://www.andytimmons.com>. If you like Eric Johnson, Steve Vai and Joe Satriani you will LOVE Andy Timmons. All four currently record for Steve Vai label - Favored Nations. I think Andy is the best of the lot <http://www.favorednations.com/artists/at/at.html>. His "EarX-Tacy" CD is the one I would start out with <http://andytimmons.com/music-ear-x-tacy.php>.

Very nice wood work. How big of a difference do the dedicated 20 amp circuits make?

I'm a long time listener/first time caller and I'm definitely interested. I live in Allen, TX and if my schedule permits, I would like to attend.

Will be purchasing the Pinnacle Kilimanjaro subwoofer in white birch veneer. I also decided to upgrade the amplifier from the PartsExpress 300-808 to the Adire Audio HS500. From exchanging a couple of emails with Kyle and looking at the documentation on the HS500 amp, I think the additional cost (just price difference between the two amps) will be worth it. The link to the Kilimanjaro is : http://www.acoustic-visions.com/~acoustic/products/subwoofers/pre_finished/pinnacle_kilimanjaro.shtml The link to the HS500 subwoofer amp is : http://www.acoustic-visions.com/~acoustic/products/subwoofer_amplifiers/adire_h500/ It will take ~3 weeks for delivery, so the end of August/beginning of Sept can't get here soon enough. Thank for the posts and insight. Everyone's input is greatly appreciated.

Thank you for the feedback to this thread. The info is very helpful. I'm no expert when it comes to subs, so the feedback is very much appreciated. Also, want to mention that I exchanged a couple of emails with Kyle Richardson (Acoustic Visions) and Terry Cain. Both were very helpful in their replies. And, are great people to work with. From what I can tell both offer very good products. It does appears that the Kilimanjaro and Bailey are very different (sealed vs. ported, 15 inch Tumult vs. 10 inch SEAS, internal amps and so on). Not being able to listen to either adds another unknown. But, based on the feedback and some research, I'm thinking very seriously about purchasing the Kilimanjaro. The woofer, cabinet design/size ... of the Kilimanjaro just seems like a better match for the LaScalas. I know a lot of people like SVS and Sunfire. And, I even exchanged a few emails with Tom at SVS. But, I would like to try something different. I know, not very scientific. If anyone has addition comments, please post them. Will probable place my order Monday/Tuesday. Best Regards - djost

Looking for a subwoofer for my 2-channel stereo. Since I have Klipsch LaScalas, I have been reading this forum to see what others are using with their Klipsch speakers. But, the two subs that caught my eye I really haven't read much about in this forum. So, I wanted to ask what others thought about them. The two subs that I'm considering are : 1 - Cain and Cain Bailey www.cain-cain.com/audio/bailey 2 - PINNACLE KILIMANJARO www.acoustic-visions.com/~acoustic/products/subwoofers/pre_finished/pinnacle_kilimanjaro.shtml My primary requirement is a sub that compliments my LaScalas in a 2-channel environment. Sub will not be used in a home theater. I don't need earth shaking bass. I just want the sub to blend as seamlessly as possible with the LaScalas and faithfully reproduce the bass when called on. A pair of Klipschorns would be the best answer, but I don't have two corners to put them in and building false corners won't work in my situation. Stereo : Welborne Labs DRD 2A3, LaScalas wALK xovers, Basie preamp (diyhifisupply.com), PS Audio 5.5 preamp (using the phono stage), Linn Axis turntable wGrado Reference Master, Rotel CD. My room is ~18x20. I listen to jazz, rock, country classical. Never had a problem with 2A3s/LaScalas playing Allman Brothers, Pearl Jam, Davis, Monk, Evans to realistic volumes. Just want a little more bass. Best Regards, DJOST
