  2. For those in possession of Chorus I, I need the distance measurement from the bottom of the midrange horn to the top of the motor board, please. Thank you . . . .

  4. Intersting....... The Klipsch parts spreadsheet from September, 2008 shows the K-137 (160744) as the RB-35 tweeter, per the Speaker Exchange site. A search resulted in no finding for the K-130 (160734) application.
  5. I'm guessing the "3" to be a partial stamp of an "8". You can buy replacement tweeters from Speaker Exchange for $38. http://reconingspeakers.com/product/klipsch-rb-35-rf-35-tweeter/#prettyPhoto According to Speaker Exchange info, it appears you might NOT have received bad advice from Klipsch folks.
  6. To answer your question, the KG 4 has two 8" woofers with a 12' passive on the back. The speakers pictured in your link are KG 4.2. They contain a 10" woofer with a 10" passive.
  7. Thanks for sharing this, Roy, and please continue!!! The most important things we will read on this forum will be written by your hand. I had the rare privilege of meeting with Paul on several occasions both at our dealership and with customers at the factory. I was always in awe . . . .
  8. How tall is the Chorus cabinet without the riser? How tall is the riser? Thanks!
  9. Hi Birdman, Contact Trey Cannon at Klipsch in Indy. Trey works with Klipsch engineering and has designed many systems for commercial installations like yours, including the Jazz Kitchen in Indy. Accept no substitute. Call Trey . . . . 1-800-KLIPSCH
  10. Imho, that would likely prove unsatisfactory. The human voice (primary focus of center channel) frequency range begins at about 250Hz. With the woofer pointing up or down, your will lose much of the fundamentals of human voice relative to the harmonics coming from mid-range and tweeter. I would think it better to simply lay the 250 on its side, if it will fit.
  11. Oh, Richard, forget worrying about the permission angle. It's always better to seek forgiveness than permission and you MUST have these. There is no more perfect setup for your outdoor gig than the KP-600s. I had a pair for several months and they are, quite simply, the pinnacle of Klipsch pro PA. The three cabinets strap to a wheeled dolly making them easy (relatively) to roll around flat surfaces. You could load these on your tractor forks and moving them around outside as a single stack, all strapped together. And the sound?? OH, MY!!! Now, using them indoors is going to be like driving a top fuel dragster from the garage to the mail box at the end of the drive . . . .
  12. Unbelievable. Well, certainly unfortunate. That must sound awful. For the deep, narrow sanctuary, a center cluster of two KP-262 speakers, one hanging above the other, hung high in the center of the room will give you the best intelligibility of speech. The Heresy's are not internally reinforced or intended for hanging. The KP-262 are fully designed for hanging and are beautifully voiced for human speech. I have installed these in church sanctuaries before with great success. Michael Colter has a pair of KP-262 with brand new woofers and new diaphragms in the K-65 tweeters that would be perfect for this application. Both fully equipped with hanging hardware and designed for flying. The sound needs to be focused to the ears of the listeners with minimal reflection off side walls. I would suggest something like this:
  13. Here is your chance to own 3 of the highly regarded KPT-904 Klipsch cinema speakers. These make one of the best sounding L-C-R set-ups you will hear. $750 each with custom metal grills installed on the bass cabinets. Can be picked up anywhere along I-35 between Wichita, KS and Dallas/Fort Worth. The 904s have been sold to a new home. Thanks for looking and your kind words.
  14. No change to the speakers - only the "description" on the web site. Go to the "download" tab for each speaker and open the cut sheets. The tweeter are all described as compression drivers.
  15. This is far more important than convenience. My daughter is a physician seeing an increasing number of patients with lung disease in woodworkers.
  16. Friction is sufficient to hold the track in place. Clamping is optional. Check youtube for Festool Track saw for several videos. I cannot say enough good about Festool. My entire shop is now Festool. All tools work together as a system based on dust extraction. No more messy clean up. No more breathing deadly saw dust. Buy the TS55 with a dust extractor (HEPA Vac) like the CT26 and don't look back. You'll soon be adding sanders, routers, tables, drills, etc etc. My favorite, go-to drill is the CSX with the 90 degree adapter.
  17. They're good little speakers. Same 8" woofer as in all other Klipsch 8" pro, K-8. K-76 tweeter as used in Heresy II, Quartet, and several Tangent models.
  18. I can't imagine what kind of lobing, comb filtering, and polars one might encounter with some of the exotic combinations with woofers 4' apart. I would think the best sound would come from the simplest combination that would closely match the Jubs. With my Jubs, at Roy's recommendation, I use a LaScala bass cab with a 402 on top, but I have an AT screen. A LaScala bass cab is 24.5" tall. The 510 horn is 9" tall. Total height 33.5" With thoughtful planning on a DIY, you could probably get the total height of the LS bass cab with 510 on top down to about down to about 32.5". The DE75 driver is the secret. KISS
  19. reference_head, I seen you post in the thread on the Jubs. I wonder how close the cinema speakers are to the Jubs? It would be interesting to hear them side by side. bill got rid of his jubilees to get the 904's that I have now. Actually, I owned, and enjoyed, the Jubilees, JubScala, and the 904s at the same time. The Jubilees and 904s were all sold to friends because of my sudden and catastrophic hearing loss, not because one was better than another. When I could hear, the Jubilees were my favorite, and fantastic speaker. The 904's were number 2 (of those in my possession at that time) and not far behind the Jubs.
