Went to listen to these the other day Magico M6....a total of $84K
$75K for the speakers...$9K for the feet....
Walked out of there thinking WTF.....What makes ANY speaker cost this much.
They did sound nice...... Sure
I paid $750.00 for a pair of Chorus II's....(my expensive pair)......the M6's did not sound 100 X better.

Yes....I would say you are over stocked.....Been there...don't think I hit 33....But I do remember having 4 pair in the basement with plastic garbage bags slid over them.
Some times you need to thin the herd.

First..... I am not a KLF owner....
I always thought toe in was...Center line of speaker should be angled directly at sweet spot....or center seating position......If center seating position is farther away toe in is less than if it was closer.....
One other thing......you have a beautiful room

Anyone seen this show on Showtime? Watched it last night, and was honestly pretty disappointed. A lot of stills, garbled old recordings. Some interesting things I didn't know, but a positive outcome after all. He was a wreck for a long time.....
Watched it last night...I had no idea he was that F...ed up....Seems to me he didn't have a solid foundation (family)...when growing up...really glad he came through it.
I did listen to Unplugged this morning

Do you think this change is a result of the new driver...or placement deeper in horn neck and deeper in cabinet.
Just thought I'd ask.

I just installed a pair of k-55v's in my Chorus II's and really like the sound, big improvement to my ears. I started a thread:

I can say I own both Quartet and Chorus II's......I love my Quartets with Bob's upgrades......
But if I had a choice between the 2......Got the be Chorus II's......
To be completely honest.....a buddy and myself have been going around and auditioning speakers....Elac Adanta / GoldenEar Triton1's / Focal Aria 948 / Paradigm Persona 3F
After hearing all these different very expensive speakers......Chorus II's still hold their own.......Focal Aria's came close......

I have user PSA veneer to repair speaker tops...They actually came out pretty nice. I have done this on a pair of Quartets.
I also use PSA on all the risers I have redone
Not sure about doing an entire speaker. I ordered what I needed from Rockler.

I personally DO NOT like the way Forte's or Forte II's sound with both midrange and tweeter changed to titanium. I kind of learned this after one of my earlier rebuilds when I did both.
Use a stock diaphragm for the midrange and use titanium for tweeter only....best bet.

Best thing I found is.....if you used walnut veneer on subs......Minwax Gunstock stain then 1 coat of watco rejuvenating oil....It matches Klipsch oiled walnut perfectly.
Done it about 3 or 4 times.......
Orange.....maybe colonial maple?

OK; think I will be "killed" for this one ... just moved some speakers around (as I "put in" my new KPT-904's
) and one speaker wire was short. Found an old spool of 14/2 speaker wire in my garage ... looked a little "green" due to oxidation splice it in and hooked it up. Awesome sound
Cheers, Emile
Just asking for trouble.

Nice find......great price...I like the shingles on the chimney.

There is also a lot of BS involved........The $400.00 cables. I walked out of high end store the other day ...thinking WTF ...I could afford the cables....we demoed a PrimaLuna Tube integrated.
Of course we listened to a pair of Sonas Faber towers ....$10,000.....my Chorus II's blew them away.

Best is Cornwall....if you have the room.
There is one that is a real gem of a speaker..... Quartets.....$580 is about a hundred bucks on the high side...... I think in the last couple years I have refreshed about 2 or 3 pair of these.
Always to sell them off... I liked them so much....I really searched out a pair for myself.....they are like a Fort'e...in a smaller package....If the crossover are done correctly and the tweeters are changed to Bob's titanium...they really sound nice . I have had a couple of people say they are a little in the short side.....Normally you should have the midrange horn at ear lever when seated......

vasubandu,
The CF-4 is like the holy grail of speakers. I've been waiting to see a set of those come up for sale since 2011
You see lots of 2's a few 3's.....I saw a set about 7 years ago.....was picking up a set of Chorus II's...He had a set of CF-4's for sale at the same time.
I had my wife with me.....She gave me one of those "Don't even think about it looks"....thought about buying both pair.
I decided after to seriously pursue a pair......Still haven't found them....2's....3's....but never 4's.
Good luck.......
