What happened to your Carver amps
-
I finally had the time to do some critical listening with the Carver 305's,Ithey replaced an Aloia ST-13.01i 30 watt solid state amp with inductive power supply.The Aloia amp has plenty of power for khorns,deep bass and great sound stage,but the Carvers are smoother on the top end and has a more relaxed sound.People that think Klipschorns are not a high end speaker,has not taken the time to get the most out of them.I have a pair made in 1980 with walnut finish,I upgraded the crossovers to ALK Cornscalla/Universal models with B&C DE-120 tweeters,I also upgraded all wiring to 12 gauge copper.I added pipe insulation to seal the backs to the corners.These small changes makes a huge difference in sound stage,image and bass response.I had friend over and he could not believe the sound and we listened for a couple of hours and he was amazed.

I plan on trying some different tubes and see how they sound with some vintage 12ax7's and 12at7's,I have matching amp stand to go with my new stand and I am trying to make those changes next week.

If you decide to use those bases with the Belles with the Volti upgrades that should be interesting,online Greg used his voice to talk into a klipsch mid horn and his own mid horn and his was a lot smoother than the klipsch.I plan on using my Khorns in front and Belles in rear channels,your setup looks great.

I have a pair of Belles and was thinking of buying another pair and then flipping one pair on top of the other,tweeters and mids together with woofers on top and bottom. That would be interesting ,I always thought the Belles could use a base or stand to rise up mids and tweeters.

I made the trip and picked up a beautiful pair of 1 owner 1981 vintage khorns,They have the AA crossovers and I am thinking of getting the ALK Super AA mods to the crossovers.I am using a pair of his universal crossovers on a pair of walnut belles with fastrac DE-120 tweeters.I am going out of town and I will not be able to do anything until next week.Thanks for the info.

I have had 2 positive transactions with John,he buys and resell all types of audio pcs and is trustworthy and I would gladly deal with again.

My Belles have the AB crossovers,so I replaced them with ALK Corn Scalla Universal crossovers and I am very happy with the results,top end not as harsh and better detail.I also replaced tweeters with DE -120 with trachorn also from ALK.
