  1. I think you will like the mod if you ever get a chance to build your boxes...if not, it will be easy for you to go back stock. Good luck on your trip to China...and say hello to all my kin folks!!! I don't give you all the credit, but you deserve a lot of it because you answered all those hundreds of private emails that I sent you! This is a great forum with lots of very knowledgeable people. I could not have done the project without it. Santa
  2. Bruce, Did you ever get started on your project?? (ported LS) Last time we spoke you were going to try and build a set yourself. I really have enjoyed mine and since it was a diy project it makes me like them more...I have to admit I could not have built them without your help and the help of this site.
  3. Hello Bruce, Good to hear from you! Yes, i like them alot... I recently purchase a set of real LS and was listening to the two together and I do like the way mine sound over the real LS. I do have to pump up the volume a little to get the deep bass response that I was wanting. I sometimes kick in a sub woofer to listen to them low. My friends who see the two think the real LS are the ones I built! The home builds look so much better than the unfinished LS that I purchased. When I show them the photo's,. that's when they believe... Sorry, guys I am not as technical as you all. I have no way of measuring sound except with my ears... I just know what I like to hear.

  4. Thanks guys, For all your advice. I'm just looking for another project and though I would try a set of klipshorns. I don't build them to sell or resale just for my own personal satisfaction. I will check out the other links and make a descion from there. But if and when I do decide to build, I will for sure be back on this board! What a great group of folks on this site! Santa Lee
  5. Hello guys, Sorry, I haven't responded lately. I just had a new edition to my family...(boy). I'm still looking for a set of klipshorn plans if anyone has a set to share. I would like to look at them anyway to see if I am up to the challange! Maybe more than I can handle... I did recieve a set of cornwall plans but decide to try the klipshorn instead. Thanks for all who have responded, Santa Lee
  6. TC, Got them! Someone sent me a set... Know of any Klipshorn plans out there? Like to build a set of them too... Thanks, Santa Lee
  7. Hello, Does anyone on the fourm have a set of cornwall plans that they would not mind sharing? I build a set of LS last year from a set of plans that I got off this fourm and would like to build a set of cornwalls. I tried to do a search but, it yield very little results. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks in advance, Santa Lee
  8. I just pick up a Yamaha MX 1000. Can someone tell me what would be a go pre amp to work with this amp? Anyone know the difference in a Yamaha C4, C40 or CX600 ? I know that the C4 was made around 1982, any one with info on the other two? and what's the diffrence? Thanks S Lee
  9. Daddy Dee, I actually posted my build photo's on the forum. I just don't remeber the thread name! (duh!) I think it was under updates and mods\porting LS's. Maybe someone on the forum can help you find it. If not I can see if I still have the photo's on my computer and email them direct to you. I built a set of LS's a couple of months ago and them wound up buy a set from a local guy. I ported mine thought the top and like the way it sounds better than the original ones. Santa
  10. Speakerfritz, Thanks for the quick response. I did a LS build and used the plastic ones. Not that it sounds bad but, They just don't have PWK on them! I ran across a set locally and was just debating on buying them to change out. Santa
  11. Hello, Can anyone tell me which is better sound? The new plastic horns or old metal horns? I there any difference at all? Marvel? you know? Thanks, Santa
  12. Bruce, Yes, I did use Bob's tweets. I just had a chance to buy some origanals and was just wondering which ones would be best. Since I've built my LS, I ran across a set of origanal LS that I pick up and it had the round mags in it. Can't really hear too much diffrance in the two (origanal vs clone) highs seems to be higher in origanals. So I though I would pick up a set and just try it in my clones. Maybe I can't hear much diffrance in the origanals because the caps might be old and need replacing? Santa
  13. Golly! I did'nt mean to open a can of worms... But, is one better than the other? Or does it just boil down to what one likes to hear? Any sound quality diffrence? One more popular or the other? Sorry, I'm not as technical as you guys. Thanks again, Santa Lee
  14. Hey guys, Thanks for the info. I just run across some tweeters this guy (local) had and he had one of each. I just wanted to know the diffrence. Though about picking them up. Santa Lee
