  1. I have a like new EVM-12L (Equivalent to the cast frame version K-42 12" woofer) that I have been holding onto for quite some time and do not think that I will ever need it.  I was keeping it as a backup for my Heresy HIP's but I do not forsee ever having to replace a woofer.  I bought it from an individual that had a stockpile of them but mostly the "S" version of the EVM-12.  This was the only "L" and it had just come back from ElectroVoice after being reconed.  I would look to get $100 plus shipping costs for it and be warned this thing is "heavy"

    I don’t like that he covered up the beauty of a LaScala with grill covers.

    He didn't they were custom ordered from the factory that way.  They are not very common but make the La Scala look like a fat Cornwall.

  3. If I am not mistaken the transition from the AA to the AK in the Klipschorn was done to accomodate the K-55M which as you konw typically runs about 1.5db hotter than the K-55V.  Let see what the experts have to say though.  I have never seen the K-51V used in a Klipschorn but many in the Cornwall.

    Thanks for all the prompt responses! I really not have the footprint for the Academy or the other suggestions mentioned, that's why I was wondering about something more recent like the RP 450C center channel.

    Wrong direction.  Reference speakers and KG line do not mix.  The timbre' will not even be close.  Do it right the first time you will thank yourself later.

  5. Up for sale my spare EV EVM-12L which is the equivalent to the early Klipsch K-42 used in HIP's.  I have been holding onto it for years as a spare for my Heresy HIP's and have never had to use it.  It was reconed by Electro Voice back in 2000 and has been sitting in a box in a climate controlled area ever since.  Looking to get $125 for it plus shipping costs.  Keep in mind shipping won't be cheap this bad boy is HEAVY!  It will be at least 22 lbs or so.  I have it listed on Craigslist and Facebook marketplace so it is first come first served.

  6. I picked up an ElectroVoice 7300A Amplifier new in the box for $85.  I am sure they have stuff leftover I will see what is there on Sunday monring when I pick up the amp.  They had the Altec enclosures for $50 (all of them) if they have drivers in them it's a steal.  I'll see if they have any new EV EVM-12's that they would sell out of the eight that were in the lot that I don't think sold.

  7. I think I have a set of the plates that mount on the bottom that were on mine that I am not using.  Not sure if they are factory or not.

  8. I would not run anything but a Heritage speaker as a center.  A compromise would be the Academy.  A reference or legend series speaker will stick out like a sore thumb with left to right or right to left pans across the front stage.  You center is the most important speaker that all the others are anchored too.  I would use a Heresy IV, no less or preferably a third Cornwall I would not compromise.  You will thank yourself later.

     

    There is no receiver or preamp software or computer algorithm that will correct or alter a speakers timbre.  Not going to happen.
