Beautiful job and amp. I’ve always wanted one of those. Enjoy.

It’s better to not use a terminal strip and instead solder it all directly. Lol...

I went and read some of it too and I agree with you. I couldn’t bare to read it all. It’s partly why he’s not on this forum anymore and still not happy about it. I respect him some, but he’s no Mr. Paul W. Klipsch who I admire greatly. Every time I listen to my Klipschorns and any Klipsch speaker demonstrates how intelligent Paul was and his company is.

woodnes, Welcome to the forum. Enjoy your build and Klipschorns. We’d appreciate you posting photos of your building process of your Klipschorns and of it completed.

Wow! Those are beautiful! Congratulations. Enjoy.

Congratulations on your first La Scalas. Appreciate you sharing your findings. A recap of some so far are: 10AWG pure copper audio wire makes the K-77 sound better. Silent Feet, aka "hockey pucks between carpet and La Scalas makes them sound better. The K55V with new diaphragms and K77 tweeters sound better than the new A-55-G/2 drivers and SMAHL tweeters. The most dramatic upgrades of these are 10 AWG pure copper speaker and terminal wire and an audiophile AC power cord. You can hear the difference between 10AWG and 8AWG in crossovers. Old caps rock, but not with home made spade connectors. Wyvern banana plug adapters sound better, but only for a day. Copper spade input connectors makes speakers sound better even when all the other connectors in the crossovers aren’t copper. Let us know about your bare wire findings too.

Thank you for sharing.

Saxophones can sound distorted when played.

Enjoy them as they are for at least now. Their capacitors may need to be replaced due to their old age at some time. Keep their original caps if you replace them, so you’ll still have all their original components. This site is a lot about upgrades, so you’ll be getting some advice toward upgrades. I’ve done some to my Klipschorns, but mine were in bad condition and needed work done to them. Yours are in good condition not needing much. I understand upgrading, but Mr. Paul W Klipsch got it right with the Klipschorns and they sound great just how they are! Enjoy.

Wow! Those are beautiful!

Thank you.

Most likely added, I don’t think Klipsch put that nice of veneer on their decorators. Someone has done some work on them previously. Your father did a great job refinishing them! I’m glad you’re enjoying them and researching their history.

When are you posting them?

I hope you’re able to buy some soon Rotobadger. It’s good you came here for advice.

Wow! I’d like to own one with the DAC!

Those are nice! I’d enjoy owning those!

Very well done!

A great history video by Cory.

Thank you for sharing this photo of Roy enjoying the Jubilee speakers. I like that he’s sitting in between two chairs to be centered. This photo shows a man appreciating a lot of hard work. Roy and everyone involved in producing them did great and I’m sure that’s apparent when listening to them. Congratulations to all who contributed to them, to one of Mr. Paul W Klipsch’s brilliant visionary passions and dreams that’s now here.

Yes, it was like that for me too. When trying to get on the forum I would just get a warning like you did that it was an untrustworthy site, could be a fake site looking to steal my personal information or something like that for some days not able to get unto forum. It’s happened before, but was longer this time.
