  1. I may need to have my AA crossovers rebuilt to try and compare,I never wanted to mess with the original crossovers so I could always put the speakers back to original condition.
  2. If you are trying to cut cost you can always trade in your AA crossovers to ALK to his Super AA's which are close to his cornscalla universals.
  3. Yes, to the tweeter question.If you get a chance try Telefunken made in west Germany 12ax7's,you can usually pick up a pair for around 120-130.00 a pair.I have used RCA,GE,Baldwin and Mullards and like the Telefunken's the best.
  4. Better than alk not really,I like you wanted to improve the sound of my Klipschorns and went with the ALK in the beginning because of cost.I bought from Al the fastrac tweeter and the entry level crossovers and could tell a big difference when I swapped out the tweeters and crossovers and a pair of VTK-400 popped up on this site and I bought them made the switch and it took me a couple of days of changing the clips on the crossovers to make a difference.I have since swapped back to the ALK's,my system to me has better bass with ALK's.I have no plans on selling the VTK-400's and if I can ever find a deal on some Volti horns,I would try his crossovers with that setup.What type of tubes are you using with your amp.
  5. I sent you a private message,the ALK cornscalla crossovers work well in my Klipschorns.I also have the VTK-400 by Volti.I use a Line Magnetic 219 amp,so l am somewhat familiar with your amp.
  6. I will message you before I make my next trip to see what you have.thanks
  7. If I had room in my van , I would have bought the forte's,the Cornwall II's and the single lascalla ,I was amazed at all the speakers you had and the sound in your main setup was life like.I can't wait to setup the VOTT's,I am going to rebuild the crossovers and make some kinda bracket for the horns.I don't have your skills and everything I do I have to search the internet first so I won't make a mess.
  8. Wow Bart,how many speakers do you have.I have started working on the altec speakers I got from you.I have added new insulation,painted the cabinets and cleaned up the horns.I am looking forward to getting them setup with a McIntosh MC-240 I picked up yesterday.
  9. Bart, I have started working on the altec vott ,I have changed the 1/4" speaker inputs to banana plug/spade connectors and I have started sanding and working on the cabinets,the pioneer speakers sound pretty good.How do you strip the finish off of those speakers,man they look good.
  10. I would call Klipsch and see if you can order the binding post that is now installed on the cabinet of current speakers.
  11. The distance is part of the issue for me,the biggest one is the boarder that is a hurdle for me.
  12. Are you going to the Klipsch get together
  13. What is the weight of the bass cabinet
  14. If these were in the US and within a 8 hour drive from Tennessee I would have already tried to make a deal,clones or not those are some beautiful speakers.
  15. Interested in a pair of Volti horns for Klipschorns,thanks
  16. I may have these priced high,but I priced them due to condition and having all the paperwork .I was going to upgrad crossovers ,change the midrange,tweeter and horns,but I did not want to take away from the value.
  17. I have listed my Klipschorns and thought I would share my add here to see if there is any interest,very nice condition and they sound fantastic.https://knoxville.craigslist.org/ele/6542939977.html
  18. I need to know how to delete it
  19. https://www.facebook.com/?ref=home#. I hope it is ok to post this, it looks interesting
  20. I just received my progressive bifocals today and it is going to take some getting use to,looking straight ahead everything is fine,my side vision is fuzzy,as long as I focus on what I am looking at it is fine,just seems like my lined bifocals had a wider range .
  21. Could you private message me with information when you get it.thanks
