    OK your point is understood. I'll not stay where I'm not wanted. Bye.

    I didn't say or even imply that you're not wanted. 
    Another thread is a perfect example of why so many left this forum.  Nothing but self-destruction and, if the right people were listening to the fans and customers, it was avoidable.

    I love Klipsch and would never hesitate to recommend their speakers just as is. Some may not even prefer my modifications. They are mainly to open the upper soundstage to achieve a more LaScala like openness in the midrange with jazz and I think that goal was achieved. This should not take away from Klipsch and most may be very happy just as Klipsch meant the Heritage series to be. For example with classic rock, I think the stock Klipsch do very well. This is mainly to improve jazz.


    Yes. That will be 99% of buyers. When less than 5% of Klipsch sales are of the Heritage line, and 99% of those buyers aren't interested in wrenching on their speakers, it should be a non-issue for any bears.

    Ive only ever had Cornwall IVs in my system. I have it paired with a Luxman L507z integrated amp. So Im not quite sure what Im missing


    I see the problem and have a solution: Buy some Cornwall II and an older AVR, and then you will hear what you're missing. 

    I have not owned a pair of Cornwall IV, but I have heard them. I doubt working on anything, such as changing the wires or binding posts, will improve the sound. Also, there is nothing wrong with the networks and you can rub a lot of money on some custom crossovers, but I doubt there will be any worthwhile change.  

    It sounds like you are inflicted with the 'audio improvement addiction' and you're not alone: The struggle is real. It is a lot like a phantom pain. In our case, it's a phantom FOMO. < read the link.

    "Fear of missing out (FOMO) is the feeling of apprehension that one is either not in the know about or missing out on information, events, experiences, or audio decisions that could make one's sound system better."

    Poking the bear with a stick is rarely the best approach...ok?

    I do not disagree with you. The flip side is that the 'bear' might need to learn not to chit where the food is. Right now, there are a dozen logged onto this site, and once there were dozens here chatting and contributing, making plans for the Pilgrimage, making donations to the Klipsch museum, etc. I was here and the 'bear' wasn't being poked.

    top hats

    Decisions decisions 

    I have a pair of industrial splits and am only using the bass bins. I have different mids and tweeters, so I am not using the tops. I believe it would be a mistake on my part to separate them. Would you be interested in a full pair of split LaScala?

    Gorgeous looking set with the cane grills! As has been said by many others, if I didn't already have a set of Heresy IV's I'd be a buyer! GLWTS!

     
    Thanks. I'd like to keep them, but I have 2 other pairs.... someone else should be enjoying these. 

  7. Offering here first:

    FS - Oak Oiled Chorus II, consecutively numbers and in great condition. I prefer the buyer to hear these before buying, they sound as good as they look. Selling to fund a new preamp. 

    1,500 obo, local pick up in the Lexington KY area, Klipsch Pony Express, or I will be traveling soon to northern Indiana.

  8. Listing here first:
    Selling a pair of consecutively numbered Walnut Heresy with Cane grills in the Lexington, KY area. These have all of the stock components (K22K woofers, K52H mids, K77M tweeters and E2 networks. They are presentable in fair condition with a few blemishes. I prefer the buyer to hear them before buying, they sound great.

    $700, local pick up, Klipsch Pony Express, or I plan to go to northern Indiana soon, if that helps.

    The price is a double up on that Fyne vs Cornwall IV

    The Flyne is 2x as much?

    The price for GIVI motorcycle parts from Italy is ~ 2x higher in the USA. A couple of years ago, I bought something that was over $500 here but was offered for about half that amount in Europe.
