Carl, arnt those the same heresy"s you had ? pretty rare

he must have been picking up aset of Kg1"s lol. A Prius is about the same size as a LaScala

thanks guys, really am diggin these pups. I was thinking about staining at first but they are so cool looking like they are I think I"m gonna leave them alone. Hopefully tonight I can post some pics

well here goes.....after a day of listening, I will say at low volume there"s not alot of difference in the chorus ll"s, the Cll"s may actually sound a little fuller, if that makes any sense, maybe the word should be deeper. But yesterday the wife went to the grocery store and yall know what happened, I dont even have to tell ya, thats right. I had been playing Rod Stewarts great american songbook, which I love, but when she left I put in Billie Jean and let her rip, OMG, at this point I knew I had a totally different animal. That lead off bass drum was hittin me in the chest likke a hammer, screw the neighbors, I went thru the first 3 songs at warp sound, and the scala"s said so long Cll"s, you cant do this. When I finally turned it down I noticed all my Winberg paintings were crooked and the small pictures on the coffee tables had moved, looked like a bomb had went off in the living room, havnt seen the cat since. The big pioneer sx1250 will dang sure push em, I was at about 11 oclock on the dial. Also, i"ve read many times these need bass help but they seemed to have tons of bass to me, maybe just cuz their new to me. Special thanks to the board for turning me on to these awesome LaScala"s......Roost

stormin, me too. I"m predicting they"ll be much brighter but wont go down as low as the Cll"s. Oh BTW the seller has a whole rack of SAE stuff he has not listed yet but planning on it soon. If I remember it was around 200wpc and in as good of condition as the speakers were. He was pummeled so hard with phone calls and emails from the scala"s it kinda overwhelmed him, so he said he was gonna wait a week or so to advertise the gear. I still have his number if anyone is interested.....Roost

hey guys, just got home, dont ya just love those emergency speaker runs. Well, like I reported to Carl in route, i"ve never seen a more pristine set of scala"s except new in the store, their unbelievable. How anybody keeps an unfinished set of speaks so clean for so long is beyond me, no kids would be a good start lol. Original owner, has all doc"s and manuals, even had the boxes they came in, although I had to leave them behind. Note to board : LaScala"s fit perfect in the back of a suburban, but not in the boxes, we had to unpack em to get em in there, you could actually feel the weight going down the road too. The seller also threw in a set of monster cables, 15 footer"s, never seen em before, really like them the way the ends are made up. I guess this will cause me to have to learn to post pics. Anyway it was a 600 mile round trip and I got to stay at a friends house over their and go out with him last night, we havnt seen each other in 3 years so it was a fun trip. Gonna unload this afternoon and take pics.........Roost

just emailed the guy, hopefully still there, I think he"s in ruston louisiana, not to far from me, will report back, wish ole Roost luck

good decision man, you cannot go wrong with the Cll

I"ve had my Cll"s hooked to so many amps I cant even remember them all and they"ve never let me down. Right now I have a pioneer sx1250 hooked to them, seems like they really like the pioneer ss stuff, you will really enjoy those pups.....Roost

that is a sweet deal, only 2 thousand miles from me but still

looks like they"ve gone up 100 bucks since you got yours

Dennie, looks like you have quite an array of speaks there man, nice. You need to add a set of sony ss-m7"s to the fold, i"ve been looking for some for a year or so. They are the only non-klipsch I care to own......Roost

I wonder how this sub compares to the RSW 15, which was klipsch"s greatest sub ever ? correct. Over 2K new, they sure seem highly sought after

Colin, you have a homeboy there in Canada who builds some amazing tube amps at a very good price ( 300 ), he calls his business Musical Paradise. I have personally talked to a guy in Minn. who has the 5wpc hooked to K"s and he says the sound is like nothing he"s ever heard. He had been a ss guy before, he says you cant stay in the room with it at half throttle, but good corners are still a must.....Roost

I just got done reading Pricilla"s book for the second time, I read it when it came out in 85, some very cool stuff, guy loved to have fun and shared everything with all his buddies ( memphis mafia ) he must have given away over 50 new cadillac"s and tons of cash. I got to see him several times as a kid and have not seen anything even remotely close since, truly amazing man, on and off the field.....Roost

Carl, same here, are you lonesome tonight by the same presley dude, he must have been pretty good

coolest thing i"ve ever seen, how are they on just music ?

you know that i"ve noticed for awhile now, for some reason all drummers just love La Scala"s. Rock on man, put some floyd on.....Roost

hey guys, one of these came up local for 225. I was wondering if anybody has one, and how are they in a music only situation, seems like a good price. What did these sell for new ? thanks, Roost

hey Colin, welcome aboard and congrats on those K"s, you went right for top there. I have seen em go from 1K to 3K depending on condition, age, etc, etc. I"m sure someone will chime in shortly and tell you what those numbers mean, what amp are you gonna push em with ? Roost

hell walmart has getto blasters that claim 1000 watts, we"ve had this discussion a time or two here, the true watt days are over, knowbody tells the truth anymore,

a subwoofer

dang, I do the same thing you do only with a set of pearl exports, I think cornwalls will be your best bet, plus you can find em for 8 hun or so

^^^^ man i"d like to hear that system

did you say you would throw in that marantz ??
