The other night I saw James Taylor sing on Stephen Colbert’s Late Show. Is there now a singing dead series on tv?

Wrong link…………FYI.

Great job!
Are you doing any more speakers?

I’ll throw in my 2 cents and say I love the transformers on the 299 Scott’s, I have two 299C’s and a 299D all redone by NOS Valves and they sounded just as good as a McIntosh MC 240 (also redone 3 years earlier). I don’t remember what Mac pre-amp was used.
-
Yes, time to add the tube amp and give it some volume. I see someone also mentioned popping off the grills too. Can’t hurt!
-
Any idea of the price?

RC-64C is the way to go!

If they fell off the truck, is there any damage at all?

If you triple your budget and wait a long while you may get lucky. Good luck!

Just saw recent br release of “When Worlds Collide” ……badly done I must say when the opening shot had heavy blue hues and was short on red hues.

Thank you all for your insights, I have a lot to chew on.

Well, for now I have to go with the 2 - 150’s. Can’t wait.

When do these come out, and prices? I just put in an order for 2 - SPL-150’s.

I have Cornwalls and I’m extremely happy using an HH Scott 299C Stereomaster tube amp. Had it rebuilt of course but now I have another 40 years of listening. My Scott was rebuilt by Craig at NOSvalves.com, he’s excellent at redoing them.

The reason I ask is because I’ve read reviews of the new LaScala’s and they implied a more improved sound so if you didn’t have $13,000 to spend on a new set,(which I don’t) then how can I improve on a 40+ year old pair of LaScala’s. First thing I figured was go with a new mid horn (different material, and maybe slightly larger in the new LaScala?) and later start with different drivers, but then I thought maybe it’s the 2 piece cabinet that improves the sound, over the one piece older cabinet?
I really don’t know.

Ahh, good question……can the K-401’s even be procured to do an update, or upgrade? Would I have to beg the Chief Bonehead to get a pair of K-401’s and see if it works in a single cabinet LaScala?

Hi just wondered if it’s possible to change the squawker metal horn in a 1970’s to mid 80’s LaScala to the newer horns used today?
I’m guessing maybe the crossover will have to be updated also? And is it still a LaScala if it’s updated from 40+ years ago to today’s model LaScala’s?
Thanks,
Steve

Not all Klipsch will sound wonderful right from the start, but all will sound fantastic after a while.

About break-in time, I recently bought the Klipsch RP-600m speakers and it took a good minimum of 12 to 15 hours to really open up. Probably a bit more for the 8000 series 2.

Hi, I’m in Indiana also, which helps with no shipping costs. And also are the tweeters B&C DE-20 ? Just wondered since I saw DE-120 instead of DE-20.
thanks,

I have the same Yamaha amp, which sounded pretty good. But then I connected N HH Scott tube amp and it became clearer plus a 3D soundstage came into effect. I’m very happy now.
