The Klipsch website says that the turntable is currently sold out - will the turntable be available soon, and if yes, when and how much for the unit with the Red cartridge?
Temporarily unavailable. It's $449.00.

Mat from VPI was actually touting you guys at one of the last shows. Very nice people to deal with. That would be a nice partnership if it comes to fruition.
He's a really solid dude. Hopefully we'll do something. Unfortunately, I have no insider info to provide on whether something's in the works.

There are a bunch of really great reviews out there for the non-Klipsch Debut Carbon. Below are a couple:

If anybody in Marketing is really thinking they will sell that PWK TT mat individually...
Dave
Very good chance we sell these separately down the line. As I have said in other threads, you can expect that we will be selling a lot more accessories on our website in the future, so customers don't have to dig through customer support for things like grilles and such.
This was being reported as a U-turn. What happened to these? They look identical. Were there two different brands, U-turn for the black and Pro-ject for the wood?
Did the partnership with the other company not work out? Talking about the ones they were displaying back in January or so.
While we have a friendly relationship with the folks at U-Turn, we never officially discussed a collaboration with them. The company you are thinking of is VPI whose turntables we featured in our booth at CES - albeit with no Klipsch branding. There is a good chance that you see a higher-end turntable in the future from Klipsch and a company like VPI would make a lot of sense to partner with for that.

My palladiums came from star power. They prolly have a nice store there if they had palladiums setup.
And I got to hear the new wireless setup not that long ago at Nebraska furniture. They sounded absolutely horrible. However I think it was a setup issue. I can't believe as big as Klipsch is they can't have regional reps or dealers go to stores to make sure things are setup property. This is almost a crime to say but you won't go to a store and hear a Bose theater setup Improper. They still don't sound great but you can tell it's giving its all. To hear stuff like this new wireless setup sound so horrible is a big reason so many many people talk bad about Klipsch outside of this forum obviously. Just makes me sad a bit.would think a demo system could be setup properly to bring in more customers.
Spoke to our rep out there and he checked in with the merch team over at NFM. Any issues you experience have been solved at this point. He will be there in a couple weeks coincidentally, so he is going to make sure as well that everything is up to snuff!

If you (or your friends) are in the Dallas-area, please join us next Thursday for a fun event with Starpower and Coldcock Whiskey: https://www.facebook.com/events/294668467587689/
There will be FREE whiskey tastings, demos of the new Klipsch Reference Premiere HD Wireless system AND you can meet C.J. Pierce from the band Drowning Pool! It is open to the public, so there should be a great turnout.
Starpower has pretty sweet setup, so you should be able to do a proper test and judge HD Wireless for yourself.
WHERE: Starpower | 15340 Dallas PKWY, Suite 1000, Dallas, TX 75248
WHEN: Thursday, June 23 | 6PM – 8PM

I may be the one person on the forums who thinks the Klipsch Belle is ugly as sin.

As an offshoot of this project, it would be nice if Klipsch would offer replacement cane grills for Heritage speakers. I would love to see my Heresy II & Chorus II's in cane for a change.
I don't know if we will do that - it would make almost too much sense - BUT I do know that we are going to start making it easier to purchase specific parts on the website which is hopefully a precursor to things like replacement grilles.

Hey Alex, is the Klipschorn script emblem as you show on the above 70th photo available to purchase individually? Or must a complete Klipschorn be attached to it?! Thanks
Any way a Klipschhorn owner could purchase some of these Logo's ?
Sorry, they are not for sale nor do I think we have any plans to make them available since they're supposed to be for the special edition. Of course, that could always change. Right now, the floor manager keeps them locked up in his office at all times because they kept "walking away."
I usually have extra logos and stuff somewhere in my cube, but those lovely scripted logos aren't one of those things. Trust me, if we do have extras, I'm putting them on my Heresys. I love, love, LOVE the scripted logo.

Klipsch historian Jim Hunter wrote his latest edition of "Good Poop" about legendary drummer Joe Edwin Holland who is featured on the KlipschTape.
CLICK HERE to read the story. It's one heck of a read!

Looks like those are sold out on the site......Maybe they should make more.
That ruins the whole 70 pairs for the 70th Anniversary thing haha.

"Compact" was just an error on our email guy's end haha. It was copy and pasted from the Heresy email.

The 70th Anniversary Klipschorn is a soul-stirring tribute to Paul W. Klipsch's original design. As the only speaker that has been in continuous production for 70 years, I don't think I need to go into more of it's history. It's the American original.
Limited Edition Features:
- Australian Wood Walnut Veneer
- Book-Matched Veneer
- Special Plaque Signed by Craftsman
- New Nameplate
- Silver Luster Grille Cloth
- New Low-Frequency Horn

Oh and here is the blog I wrote for these beauties: LINK
Also, would y'all be interested in a bunch of production photos that I have? The production photo on the 70th Anniversary Heresy III page is a legitimate shot of these speakers. Not one from years past.
If you guys are interested, I'll edit a bunch of them and post them here and probably on our flickr account as well.
Yes, please do!
I had my laptop stolen here in NYC so it'll be a while before I can get those up unfortunately :/
-
they are EXTREMELY beautiful... will wait for the secondary market.
are they MDF or Baltic Birch?
MDF
Are those badges or complete grills available as a parts purchase?
Not right now and there weren't plans on it.... but, I'm working on it. I want them for mine!

In sound quality, or just looks? What is the sonic difference, if so, and how was it done?they are truly breathtakingWell, I have Heresy IIIs, so I believe they are breathtaking acoustically
...but these are "just" an aesthetic upgrade.I was told "most" of them have already pre sold. Great news!!!
Thank you for sharing with us Alex!
If they just went on sale today, how could "most" of them be "pre-sold"?
Not that I'd ever pay $3200 for Heresy III's... But that statement makes it sound like "most" of them won't be available to the public?
Dealers took a lot of the stock and they're pre-sold through those channels as well. We have stock online, though. I'm just warning everyone that it's going to go fast

When does the La Scala II get special treatment ?
This time around it's only the Heresy and Klipschorn. We'll see what happens for the 75th Anniversary.

$3200 a pair? You really think they'll go fast?
I got a pair. That only leaves 69 pair.
I have heard that every 70th anniversary k-horn was already accounted for like a month ago, and those are what, 17 grand or something. I cannot confirm. Only 35 pair of those made though.
Not quite

Yes. Many have already been accounted for. Trust me, I was surprised too! Not because the speakers aren't worth it - they are truly breathtaking - however, that is a certainly a lot of coin.
