I got into HT 20yrs ago when I had 4 Bose 901s. When I realized they were toys, I got a pair of LSBs with HWOs as surrounds and a HBR as center. A letter to Klipsch said "not compatible". I upgraded the LSBs to a pair of K.C.WRs in 1991 I got from the wife of the original owner who was on her way to a nursing home. I bought an Academy as center, but wasn't too thrilled with it all. I remember an interview in Speaker Builder with PWK who described a center speaker for the Khorns, but unfortunately didn't keep the article. Recently I picked up a pair of K-400 squaker horns attached to older Peavey 22 drivers, and while searching for that interview online I found and joined this forum. (Lots of good info here. I rebuild old radios, but hadn't considered recapping the Khorn's crossovers before.) I've searched this forum but haven't found any reference to that old interview yet. So...
After being into 2 channels for the last 15 yrs, I'd like to get back into HT using the Khorns. I'd like to build a center for them, but I haven't seen anything here mentioning compatability between older gear and newer, better components. IIRC the manual said these are 16 ohm. I'd appreciate input from anyone who could tell me which issue that PWK interview was in, or better yet, suggestions from those who have done this type of thing before. Thanks,
Dave
