I think OP just want's connectivity as opposed to other possible solutions.

Class D is accurate and PRECISE, which many people consider Sterile... It is merely a personal preference. It is not a mistake to own class D, but it is a choice to make with care. To me the most revering thing about class D is 'Blackness', which is important... Secondly is the transient and damping factor, which is ENORMOUS. Blackness is always good, but I think to much transient response can be a bit sharp and fatiguing at times... Specially when combined with high efficiency. Ive used a Pioneer SC35 ICE based unit and a more modern SC85 for 5.1 and home theater, and they are really nice... super clean, fast and big dynamic range. Ive used a pair of Bel Canto REF500m monoblocks for 2-channel in addition to my current ATI 526 which is 6 mono channels that is pushing two 3-way speakers. Both are VERY highly regarded class D topologies and build qualities and they do the job. none of the Class D (for 2-channel work) is what I would consider 'be all end all' because with the wrong or weak source material, they can be brutal to listen to... painful and beyond fatiguing. With really good source material they are pretty decent. My personal fondness leans towards class A topology... either tubes or solid state, probably mainly because of the beauty of the Harmonics. Klipsch are extremely revealing and efficient so they tend to magnify any short comings in a system. I remember after I had run class D for years I bought a tiny little chifi tube preamp and I knew... immediately, that was the sound I was looking for. No one can decide for you... it's part of the journey.

Xilica XP active crossover integration into my system
Schu replied to Chris A's topic in Technical/Restorations
do you happen to have a screen cap of the advanced mode on the PEQ screen? Ive been looking for a more modern DSP option that has a more user friendly interface/GUI. some of the stuff I have seen out there looks interesting, but I have not made any decision as yet. while the xilica is dated, it is still fully functional and does everything it should... just not as user friendly. -

The correct xconsole is still available on the xilica website, but you need to dig around in the archive section to find it. I just did this a month or two ago. There hasn't been a firmware update from xilica for a LONG time. -
Forget that... put 2900$ in one pocket and MAYBE 200$ in the other..
-
Nope... not that I am aware. There are replacements, but not in a perforated Berylium.

just because that shyte was 4000$ new doesnt mean you can get 2100$ for them now. Klipsch themselves were actively selling these discounted for 1500$ when they were trying to clear out that warehouse. tell him you'll give him 900$ for them.

I am considering sell ALL my Klipsch items...

I don't think you want something that requires a crossover... two way AT MOST, full range if possible.

I see what happened now... here is a perspective, and Auction is not going to solve issues that involve inequities... if anything, it will exacerbate those same inequities and concentrate the wealth. the best way, is the way you've been doing it, is via raffle, and that is tax deductible. if all of our capital was used to help run the last raffle, and that raffle was won by an altruistic individual that willed the item back to the museum, the ONLY that should be considered, is rerunning the raffle with the same tickets... or pull the speakers and put them in the museum. The second option is one that is going to leave MANY questions unanswered... but I don't think anyone is going to have the opinion that something foul is afoot.
