    SOLD: Juicy Music Peach

    in Garage Sale

    Posted

    I'm fairly certain this didn't come with any upgrades.  If my memory serves me right (and sometimes it doesn't), I believe the updates that were offered by Mark didn't come out until the time version II of the Peach and Blueberry came out.  Maybe some of the other Juicy Music aficionados can chime in if they have better information.

    SOLD: Juicy Music Peach

    in Garage Sale

    Posted

    I have for sale an original (version I) Juicy Music Peach pre-amp.  I originally purchased this from our highly respected @Daddy Dee back in December of 2005 (may he rest in peace).  It has had very little use since I’ve owned it due to a variety of reasons (very limited time for listening, not having primary system setup over several years, and owning a few other similarly high quality pre-amps).  As a result of this, I would guestimate it has had about two years of mostly weekend use since I’ve owned it and it has sat protected in its box for at least 14 of the years that I’ve owned it.  It comes with its original box and manual.

     

    The pre-amp is in overall excellent condition.  Looking it over the only defects I find are some very, very slight indentations on the top of the case that are only visible if you look very closely under lighting.  They look as if a wire may have been sitting on top of the wooden case and some weight or pressure was applied to it.  Other than that, it is probably in about the same condition it was when shipped new.  Functionally, I just had it set up recently and it is working as I remember when I used it last several years ago (still sounding great!).

     

    Price is $OLD.  This price includes transaction fees (e.g., PayPal) as well as shipping and insurance anywhere within the continental U.S.  For other locations, contact me and I can estimate the cost.  For security reasons, buyer must have been a member of the Klipsch Forum for at least six months with at least 10 posts as of the time of this ad being posted.  For potential buyers that don’t meet that criteria, I will still consider selling but payment must be made with a U.S. Postal Money Order and I will not ship until funds have cleared.

     

    Please note that I do not live on the forum so you won’t always get an immediate response.  I will however ensure I’m checking this thread and PMs at least daily.

     

    Edit: Pre-amp is located in DFW.  Discount will be applied for those that can pick it up in person.

    I’ve owned a set of their Klipschorn’s in Bubinga and have loved every minute and their detail and quality of restoration is impeccable. They delivered them to me in Austin since they’re within the State.

    Wow!  I'd love to see them.  Can you post some photos?

    RIP DAVE MALLETTE

    @MalletteI'm very saddened and shocked to hear this news.  It's been almost twenty years ago, but Dave invited me and a few other forum members to his home to listen to his Klipschorns powered by tube amplification (a type of ST-70 if I remember correctly), which I really wanted to hear.  I recall he had them set-up in his bedroom as that was the room that had the best corners.  I think that was in 2002.  I only met him that one time but had communicated with him in other instances and here on the forum.  He was likeable and clearly a good guy from my viewpoint.  My prayers, thoughts, and condolences go out to his family and friends.

    What are the MAIN DIFFERENCES between LA SCALA and BELLE Speakers from someone who has owned BOTH.

    in Technical/Restorations

    Posted

    As noted above, the Belle has a shorter horn.  One other difference of significance is that due to the nature of the structure of each cabinet, the Belle should resonate slightly less at higher volumes.  This is due to the side panels of the Belle bass horn having a smaller (un-braced) area than the La Scala.  Regardless, both speakers are fantastic and there are going to be much, much more similarities than differences.

     

    Although I've never heard them, the La Scala IIs are likely an improvement over both -- La Scala-sized mid horn, Belle-type looks, and much thicker panels to reduce cabinet resonances even further.
