  1. I had a pair of Belles with AB crossovers and I could never get them to sound good,I bought a pair of ALK crossovers and that helped them,but I was not happy with them.I then saw this pair of Belles pop up on the forum and they had AB-2 crossovers and they were  a  5 hour drive from me so I bought them and after sealing up the k-55m’s to stop the rattles and then replaced the tweeters(they were bad) with DE-120’s the sound was very nice,I then hooked up the SX-3700 and was shocked.

  2. I have been playing with different amps, preamps and Int amps with the Klipsch Belles I bought and I really liked the sound I was getting with different combos.Yesterday I thought I would hookup a Pioneer SX-3700 receiver that I have had for years and I was shocked at how well it sounds with the Belles,smooth top end with deep bass and just an all over great sound.

  3. Checkout a company called Deadshiners ,they sell premium e-liquid at great prices.I have friends that use them and they are happy with their juice lines.

  5. Do you have a headphone amp, I have one you can use ,it is a music hall brand with tubes.You pay shipping and when you don’t need it ship it back or meet me in NC.I have family in Trinity,NC

    Nope...definitely not room for a Belle center channel. ;) Or much need, I wouldn't think. 

    No need, I already have 3 Lascala II’s I bought from Rich and I am only using 2 of those,I still have the 3rd Lascala II wrapped in moving blankets .I never plan on selling these and if we move to a home with a big enough room I will use Klipschorns for front left and right 1 Lascalla for a center and the other 2 as rears and could use the 2 Belles I just bought for sides.Then I would need a pair of Klipschorns in black.

  7. The speakers turned out nice and sound great now and I have played them with a kpt-484 subwoofer and they both work great together,the tops had major scratches on them and the previous owner had glass tops made for them that helped hide the scratches but you could still see them.So I painted the bottom of the glass and after they dried the tops now look great.Below is a picture of how they turned out,plus I met a great guy that is just as passionate about Klipsch speakers as most on this forum.

  8. I have been working on the pair of Belles I bought off this site ,I had to seal k-55m’s and I replaced the tweeters with DE-120-8 with fastrac horns and while I was doing this I noticed the horns have a coating on them.My question is did Klipsch ever do this to the horns .The DE-120-8 tweeters really smooth out the top end.

  9. I have everything running like it should now, I replaced the pump motor because the old one was locked up and I tried everything to get it to spin.I had to prime the new pump and then I had too much pressure and that caused low water flow,I then replaced all seals on the pump and sand filter and that fixed that problem.I now need to order a light for the pool,we have color light that changes color and it is now out.

    Swimming pool maintenance is on par to owning a boat.

    Amen to that, I have been working around the pool all day,I had to pressure wash the concrete around the pool and then while I had the pressure washer out my wife thought it would be great to clean the driveway ,front sidewalk,windows and gutters.I was planning on working on a pair of Belle speakers I bought,too tired.I warmed up my tube amp and plan out doing some serious listening,that is if I don’t fall asleep.
