I have heritage linked to a modern Pioneer. to be honest, I couldn't be happier. I am SURE there are much better set ups, but for my room, 25x20 it's has a wonderful image and outstanding levels.
Specially at the price point, I am not a rich man by any stretch of the imagination, so being "all in" at about $1600 via discreet shopping and Criagslist finds this is my most rewarding set up to date.
I found that Crites interview eye opening when he said that Paul Klipsch used SS amps.
-
I tried that with my amp... pioneer, and it didnt work well.
what does work well for me is the A/B two zone set up in stereo mode. with CW's on the main A and heresys on zone B
level seems perfect as well as balance, I am very happy
-
when I first received my CW's I felt the same as you OP... but then with a little experimentation on the amp settings things changed drastically... and I am still using the OEM crossover.
one other thing I notice, on my CW', is that at lower volume levels, bass is under pronounced, at higher volume levels, they scream bass response.
-
excited yes...
but that have less range than image ones accoring to Klipsch.

rapid prototyping... bfd [

agreed... 90% music is a sub choice for sure.
-
probably should ask bob.
I have a set of CW1 tweets that I can send you, one works and one is not though I doubt it is an expensive fix.
-
here is your best friend... dont wait, that is a smoking deal on what is essetnially a new unit. my SC is so quite it's amazing.
-
not that I have seen on the 77's... for the other k series yes
-
Shot this short video now that the system seems to be working better... things still need to eb put into position, but sound is finnaly close. I need some fine tweaking.

After getting the sound dialed in much better, I really am not sure I want a subwoofer. the system rocks the house, the only way I need a sub is for ultra low frequencies.
-
that is a very interesting question... out side of my relm of knowledge, but someone here will answer up or sure.
-
not sure how to adjust aCW for individual notes... but perhaps there is for a range.
FYI, I just installed a set of Crites 125 tweets, man... what an immediate difference.Makes me think there may be more holes in that speaker that could be addressed
-
I "get" the tube action here, they are superb amplifiers. but I dont get the exclusion of SS as it were the plague.Reading Bob Crites interview about SS and klipsch horn loaded was reassuring.

TY folks... you're the best

not sure sir... he is quoting $3,000 new for it. 16hz form a tiny sub? is that even possible?

is $800 for a Sunfire TS-EQ12 True Subwoofer EQ 12 Signaturea good deal? one is available local or sale. id ont have a lot of experience with subs so any input is welcome. it says that it is good to 16hz, which seems hard to beleive.
thanks
-
someof these folded wooferes are quite interesting... I think i need one.
-
in for later... beautiful write up
-
TY... reading now

I had great fun with my Onkyo 806 and a pair of Heresey 1's... the set up could rock the house and was capable of great sensitivity.
-
update for my particular situation...
I deleted all my programed pre sets/settings on the amp and everything seems to be all hunky dory now. there must have been something done when I used the auto set up/microphone that caused my system to play strangly for my room.
-
thanks... I just might try it myself indeed.
-
looked inside... everything looks really good, but i have not used a fluke to test anything. placement might have a bit to do with it.
yes, both speakers are running of the same amp currently, different channels.
-
I am pretty sure I could do a fair job... but if I am paying, I expect better than a "hobbiest" work

lol... yes sir.
they seem to like the music.
Not to worry, I have catch basins under them and I dont water on top of the speakers
