    While visiting the local pawnshop I noticed a pair of 3.5s sitting next to some Polk speakers. This particular pair of Polk speaker had 4 midrange drivers, one tweeter and some kind of foam woofer. When I inquired about the price of the 3.5s the salesman responded by "Polk is better than Klipsch". Well I knew I had to put his opinion to the test...lol. We hooked one of each speaker to a Onkyo receiver which put out about 80 watts. He then loaded a George Strait CD into the disc changer and proceeded to turn up the volume. He reached about 11 O'clock and then the Polk speaker had a bout with flatulence...lol. As the Polk stuttered along the 3.5 sang right along with Ol George. Much to his embarrassment he then quietly turned down the volume without saying a word. Needless to say the store had the 3.5's way overpriced at $450 so I left only with a good laugh.

    Told my brother once that Bose sounded better because the sound bounces off of the wall.Upon hearing this he cranked up the volume of his Heresys and said " There,now the sound is bouncing off of your head"

    LOL

    Which one first?

    I'm a fellow horn lover like you gents.I fell in love with the Klipsch sound in a pawn shop.It was a pair of Kg1.2s who i fell for.4 months later it was the ol Heresy who did the trick.I tell you fellows i was in heaven.I told my wife that was the end of my journey.

    Little did i know a man i call Frank.Truthfully it was what my brother called my speaker because of its appearance.I'm talking about the brute force of the Forte'II.The sound is so slamming to the eardrum when i gave it 11:00.I mated them with the TFM 35x i won off Ebay and boy do they rock!Back to the question at hand.Do i skip Chorus'II s and go straight for Khorns?
