    Klipsch kg2

    in General Klipsch Info

    Posted

    I used a silicone product made for brake components on vehicles...it was recommended for use on Corvette door rubber (or any other vehicle) and as I recall it was only applied once in 12 years on the Corvette never needing to be reapplied...I used it sparingly on the surrounds of my kg2s several years ago and it also has not needed to be reapplied since...

     

    my kg2s are used daily in a small television/home theater setting...(my normal television watching instead of using the speakers on the flat screen)

     

    good luck with your choice.

    Synthetic Motor Oil.....

    in Lounge

    Posted

    I've had several GM vehicles that were second cars so the mileage stayed low...the requirements were always at the least once a year oil change to maintain the warranty...

     

    shopping sales and rebates, I can always find Mobil 1 synthetic (my preference but other choices are good too) for about the same if not less than I can buy Dino oil for my cars and have used synthetic on my cars and the GF's car since 2001...

     

    I see as a cure for several ills that GM (at least) has gone to full synthetic for many of their cars...their current Dexos 1 gen2 is now full synthetic from the previous synthetic blend which I always thought was the worst of both worlds...

     

    I feel more comfortable with the 6 months or 5000 mile changes myself but that could be because I as brought up on the 3000/3month oil changes (which enriched the oil companies and lightened my wallet)...good luck with your choice

    KLF - 10 or KM - 6

    did the KLF-10 use a different 90x60 Tractrix than the KG 5.5/KM6???...I agree the KLF-10s were higher up the food chain (more wood choices) but their dimensions and their parts seem near identical but I've never been able to compare the two having only owned and heard KG 5.5s

    I am not sure why you would think the KG 5.5 would sound quite a bit larger than KLF-10s.  Don't both have 2 10" woofers?  I think the KLFs have better woofers.  Also the KLF-10 has a tractrix horn.

    Because I was thinking CF-1 while reading KLF-10...whoops...carry on

    Bi-Amp (wire?) with Discrete Amp Channel Receiver - Any Benefits?

    in Home Theater

    Posted

    I had tried something similar (if I'm reading correctly) with a pair of RB-5s and a Panasonic digital home theater receiver...my understanding with my particular set up is that on 2 channel, two amps are used but if I went the bi-amp/wire route, the other amps would be active...

     

    what I perceived from trying this was a bit more volume and perhaps a touch more clarity...I fully admit that this may have been the placebo effect of trying this out...

     

    Good luck and I'm sure many more with far more knowledge than me will chime in...

    Heresy III VS Heresy I- Opinions Anyone?

    I personally like the 1's because of the upgrade possibilities with the A55-g's, CT-120 tweeters and fresh capacitors I think they are better than the III's.

     

    When I had the III's I compared them to my Crites modded Chorus II's and Deang modded RB-75's, the H-III's weren't even close to either of those IMO. 

    well I only compared Heresys I've heard...my Crites updated Quartets and the Chorus lls I sold this Summer sound better than the Hls and H2s I heard...I never compared them to H3s...Crites newer tweeter must be a step forward from his CT-125 then as well as the A55-Gs...

    Heresy III VS Heresy I- Opinions Anyone?

    in 2-Channel Home Audio

    I have heard all three as well...I've also heard Heresy ls with Crites updated crossovers and then again with his CT125 tweeters...I always liked the Heresy l better than the H2 but there are people on both sides of that argument...however...I heard the H3 when they were going to be introduced at the Pilgrimage and loved them...I have heard them several more times at a Klipsch Heritage stereo store...they are far better than my H1s I think (especially in the bass department)...in fact, to me, listening to them back to back with Cornwall llls I hear a larger jump in the H3 than I detect in the Cornwall lll from earlier Cornwalls...YMMV but if the price were right, I'd probably buy another set of speakers (H3s) they are that good.
