  1. 1. What Heritage speakers have you owned, currently own, or want to own? Response: Klipschorns since 1976; 2 pair of Heresys 1977 & 1980. 2. What was your age when you first purchased a Heritage series loudspeaker? Response: Bought my Klipshorns when I was 29. 3. What is your current age? Response: A young 57 4. Why did you choose Heritage loudspeakers over another Klipsch model? Response: Heritage was the only line Klipsch had in 1976!!! 5. If you currently own some Heritage loudspeakers, and could purchase some more Klipsch speakers(new or used), which ones would you purchase? Response: A Heritage matching center channel. Why? Response: Would probably be much better than modified heresy I use now. 6. Do you think the upcoming Jubilee should become part of the "Heritage" line, since it was also designed by PWK? Response: No Opinions on that.
  2. jdire1, message me on what kind of price you need on the other Lascala, I might be interested. Thank you.
  3. Playntheblues, those numbers don't make any sense to me. Here is a listing of the date codes (serial numbers) format: KLIPSCH S/N FORMATS DATES DESCRIPTION EXAMPLE 1946-1947 ### 001 (ending #021) 1948-1961 #### 0121 (starting #0121) 1962-1983 ##letter#### 20Y1234 1984-1989(?)

DOY Y2Y1 #### 135791234 1998-2000 YY WW #### 00281234 1962-1983 Letter format A = 1962 F = 1967 K = 1972 R = 1977 X = 1982 B = 1963 G = 1968 L = 1973 S = 1978 Y = 1983 C = 1964 H = 1969 M = 1974 T = 1979 D = 1965 I = 1970 N = 1975 U = 1980 E = 1966 J = 1971 P = 1976 W = 1981 NOTES 1946-1961 dates can only be found in log book (eng. Library) DOY= day of the year YY=year (i.e. 99,00) Y2Y1=2nd digit of year, 1st digit of year WW=week of the year Date code on drivers (1994) Example - 9429 = 1994, 29th week of the year / YYWW Klipschorns of this vintage had the s/n hammer stamped into the tailboard, woofer access door or inside the woofer chamber.
  4. Freak, the TV is a 57" Sony XBR HDTV. I've had it now for almost 3 years, so its getting a little old. LOL About 3 months ago I bought my wife a 50" LCD Sony (Christmas Present) for her to watch upstairs. We never or very seldom watch the same programing; And I had to buy her something better than I was watching. Now I also watch a lot more TV upstairs with her, so it worked out; now we see more of each other. Actually, the room downstairs looks crowded on the picture, but it really isn't. The picture is kind of deceiving, must be the wide angle lens used. Actually the room was much bigger. The khorns used to be 17 feet apart. I made the room smaller and now they are 14 feet apart and I sit about 10 feet in front of them; that is the best listening distance also.
  5. Hey klpschfan, Check the following out KLF-C7's with freight. http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=3077859671&category=14992&sspagename=STRK%3AMEBWA%3AIT&rd=1 http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=3077971446&category=14992&sspagename=STRK%3AMEBWA%3AIT&rd=1 Where is that store?
  6. Ya, the room is 14 x 17, but it doesn't take much fo fill er UP! When it gets warm out, the SONY is going to be built in the wall, or my other option is to get a plasma hung on the wall or LCD. Not sure which will be CHEAPER. I'm working on that part right now. Got a 50" LCD upstairs now, I like it. That's my wifes TV.
  7. Hey BigBusa, that's probably why I fall to sleep on the couch so much. Them dang khorns are just to boring! lol
  8. Hey freak, you want to see a picture of your KLF-C7 center channel? Check out: http://forums.klipsch.com/idealbb/files/k-horn.JPG
  9. Hey playntheblues, hope you haven't painted the birch khorns black yet. Check the attached picture out; these are birch plywood khorns!!!!!!!!
  10. bchild*** I don't have any pics right now, but it looks like it just came out of the box. I can take pics latter tonite. Trust me it is in excellent condition. According to what the last ones on ebay went for, I would say $570.00 plus freight.
  11. I have a like new KLF-C7 for sale. If I don't sell it here I will list it on Ebay. Make an offer. It is hardly broken in and not a scratch on it. Color is black. Located in Wisconsin. Great center channel but the timbre didn't match klipschorns close enough for my liking. Worked fine for movies but a little shaky for music. Now use modified heresy. Works great for music and also works for movies. Hard to beat the quality of sound that comes out of the KLF-C7; I wish klipsch would make one just like it to match the timbre of the Heritage series. I would buy it in a flash!!! Just noted that the last two KLF-C7's on ebay went for $635.00 and $625.00 including freight. THE KLF-C7 IS SOLD !!!
  12. Vandec54, I have a pair of RS-3's (used very little) I will sell you. And I live in Wisconsin so you can pick them up. Give me a "note" on my email if you are interested. dlhoman@charter.net
  13. Mandi, take one of your heresys and put it in the center. It will match up with the cornwalls! Works really well with music and HT movies. I can't give a class but sure enjoy the posts. Can someone tell how crossovers work? What do the capacitors do? How do crossovers direct the proper current to the proper driver?
  14. Thanks for all the help! To bad I'm such a dummy at this. John, if I new what your schematic meant, I would attempt to make the changes. But, unfortunately I am going to have to do a little studying before I would even attempt to make changes. Can that schematic be put in laymens terms? I am very interested in how crossovers work, is there anywhere on the net that would be a good learning tool? Again thanks for the help. This is getting exciting!! JM That is one huge room you have there for your HT!! Great looking klipschorns.
