this amp is quite rare in the USA or Canada , there are clones of these SET 45 amps since real Welborne tube amps are scarce , higher quality workmanship and sound quality , an amp for purists , either you like em or you dont , on the + side , the resale value is rising

I am considering purchasing the Forte IV to replace the RF 83's , Is the 7015 ok for power
the Forte IV should work fine with the 7015 , being it's rated at 125 wpc in stereo mode

good luck with your search , make sure to checkout the BGW VXi series https://bgw.com/amplifiers/vxi/vxi22

If you open up the 800 you will see the similarities. The BGW just used better quality output transistors and better quality capacitors. The story goes that they both were designed by the same engineer but I really don't put much faith in old internet fairytale. But I have been inside both and the similarities are stunning.
as long as you own the CS800 , you can do whatever you think is best , or if the price is right , you can offload the CS 800 amps after doing a slight refurbishing and get yourself the 750G , or you can buy the parts through your distributor and bring these amps back to full operation .

I have a stack of old CS 800 peavey out in the shop. May e go in and recap with the better caps and transistors the BGW had. Basically the same amp just done cheaper.
I've never used the CS 800 or any Peavey amp in our commercial installations , we only use BGW amps , these are real workhorses , but as long as you have the CS 800 , yeah , I would get these up and running if you think you can upgrade the amps to BGW standards .

Ok I know about that one,
if you like old power amps , you should be looking at the BGW 750 series or their more recent amps , the sonic and build quality of these amps is a lot higher than the DBX BX-1

Thanks for tip. I see where the K77M diaphragm is sold in pairs. That will be easy and I feel better about replacing both. Much cheaper than "upgrading". Maybe I do that and then fix the one squawker if needed. I have done very basic desolder and solder of connections in the past. Its pretty ugly work but if a simple job that does not require finesse I can probably handle it.
the aftermarket K-77 diaphragms are pure trash , here is klipsch part # 127126 ,there are the quality diaphragms , dont touch the original K-77 diaphragm that's working properly https://reconingspeakers.com/products-page/klipsch-k77f-127126-diaphragm/

Major edit: this is actually a late model Chorus I (1989).
does that change folks opinion of this Heresy vs Chorus decision?
stick with the Heresy IV , you're better off buying the newer product vs tinkering with older speakers

I'll probably make an offer based on buying two tweets and two mids. Didn't mean to break rules discussing aftermarket, but did not realize I had other options. is replacing the tweeter diagphragm a challenge?
the klipsch tweeters a re available with a kit that uses a pre-soldered diaphragm ,roughly 10 minutes , no need to solder anything except removing 4 screws.
-the mids dirver requires soldering , but it's not hard to do for anyone handy with a soldering iron .
-the Lascala grilles are in great shape , these are Dealer add-ons , most likely stapled on the added wood trim , very nice grilles , expensive fabric + very rare copper badges is certainly better than none

Simple question, has anyone measured, with REW, whether tail boards on the Klipschorns, with proper and tight corners, are constructive
enclosed backs alike the AK-6 /AK-5 are a plus structurally and sonically even if you have proper corners , since the khorn cabinet's backbone becomes stronger and stiffer by the addition of quite a few braces to the sides and tail piece , all of which are then covered over with 3/4 inch panels resulting in improved bass response ,

anytime peak season hits , backlogs are to be expected , klipsch implemented a ticket system a while back that avoids being on hold on the phone ,
the customer fills the online support form , once the form is received by klipsch CS via email , the request are handled in the order they were received , and CS responds to the email once the person's turn comes around based on that list ,

I would not do business with any company that put me on hold for 118 minutes,
you'd better get used to it , cause that's the new reality across all North America and with all industries , forget the old days , the world has changed , back-orders , supply problems , staff shortages , cies simply cant find workers to fill jobs
