I have heard the 60 it is a very nice unit. That is something I found also at times with break-in.

Your journey mirrors mine except I started with Klipsch and went full circle and am back. I owned at one point Pass labs mono amps and there pre-amp and they were excellent. I can't resist tubes so that is where I have settled along with some original Chorus speakers. I would purchase the CW-4's if I was going new in a heartbeat, although I sure would like to see a new Chorus come back. It is so true how we get lost in listening to the equipment instead of the music and forget why we started this journey. Klipsch has a way of bringing you out from the darkness and you just listen to the music again.

Looks fantastic, great job. I am anxious to hear your thoughts after some extended listening.

I finally caved and let curiosity get the best of me and for the first time I decided to see how a sub would sound in a two channel set up, now technically 2.1. I had an SVS SB-16 Ultra in the room already that was connected to my second system I have for movies. I am in the beginning stages of adjusting it but so far it's pretty positive. It sure does fill in where the Chorus leave off. Preliminary settings seem to be best @ 180 degrees out of phase and negative polarity (much tighter and cleaner this way) and low pass @ 40hz. I will have to listen for a while and see how it settles on me.

Nice set up. I did not know these existed.

Same here. My noisiest albums are the new pressings I have with crackling and popping and I clean every album, new or old before played. Most of my original albums are amazingly quiet.

Just purchased at local record store. Sounds great. Daryl Hall & John Oates - Abandoned Luncheonette (180 Gram Translucent Red Audiophile Vinyl/Limited Anniversary Edition /Gatefold Cover)

Good choice. Congrats Dean

Please post here the link to the new thread when you do start one please.

Still very good. My impression is that they sound to me to be clearer, more spacious and easier to listen to when I turn them up a little. Very detailed.

Just received notice that our contract was ending and the new one is double. Insane.

Wow, what a score, how great is that. Beautiful. Congrats.

I had a Halcro for a while and it sounded very good but it was missing something. It never drew me into the music, hard to explain. ymmv

https://jemperformanceaudio.com/ I ordered from JEM and I don't know what brand they are. Maybe someone else here knows.

The speakers sounded good before I changed the caps, maybe a little tizzy and thin if I am looking for something perceived to comment on. They did not sound veiled to me. they also did not sound as good as I remembered my original Chorus sounding years ago. I figured different room, amplifier, older ears etc.. Short answer they needed new caps. They sound full crisp fast and tight and the bass is hitting me in the chest, they sound like I remember them now. Love it.

All of the caps are hot glued to the boards. What is the best way to remove them?

Thank you

I am going to refresh the crossovers in my Chorus speakers today and before I attempt I was hoping to get some guidance on removal to save time.

So far I agree

And then there is that. :)

I was just curious if the factory had produced a different version or update before the II's with the tubes.

Picture I saw online. Not mine.

Thank you.

Question, I have seen pictures of these speakers with the typical flared port tubes instead of just the round holes in the speaker like mine. Are there two versions?
