I sure your the envy of the neighbourhood. ------------------ Paul Ward my home theater www.brookesbakersurveyors.com/klipschht.htm

Where are you, what kind of wood, finish, serial numbers, bases, pictures, drivers, how much? If local I'd like to come and see them. I'm in the Dallas fort worth area. ------------------ Paul Ward my home theater www.brookesbakersurveyors.com/klipschht.htm

If I were closer I'd buy them form you, but alas I'm in Texas and thats a little to far to drive. You'll sell them right here I'm sure. Why are you selling? ------------------ Paul Ward my home theater www.brookesbakersurveyors.com/klipschht.htm This message has been edited by P Ward on 01-18-2002 at 09:48 AM

Nice, darn nice. I really like having a front projection also. gotta sound really nice. ------------------ Paul Ward my home theater www.brookesbakersurveyors.com/klipschht.htm

Does anyone know if a merak mc6h center is a good match with cornwalls? Also the guy said that Klipsch sued merak and won, does anyone know about that? ------------------ Paul Ward my home theater www.brookesbakersurveyors.com/klipschht.htm

Beemer, Have you thought about bass shakers or tactile transducers? I have several in my couch and it adds the feel that you maybe looking for. I really like them, they add a punch to the bass without having to really turn up the sub. Also late a night, I turn off the sub and just turn up the shakers so as to not disturb the rest of the house or neighbors. Clark makes an expensive one, I have the el cheapo 10 buck varity and like them just fine. I'll try and find a link to them later. ------------------ Paul Ward my home theater www.brookesbakersurveyors.com/klipschht.htm

I have to agree with the EAR, I have two carver amps and used to have the Carver Amazing Loudspeaker III's. Carver, that is when Bob owned them, was a very good company with quality equipment. Now that Sunfire is around they have raised the bar again with the True sub and their processors. I would put my old AL-III against ANY speaker under $6,000 for pure musical quality. I sold them because they are just too big and need alot of room to breath. I had them bi-amped with the Carver 705x that I still use for my cornwalls. I also have a TFM-35 bridged to 700 watts at 8 ohms that drive my sub and could not be happer. I know that some amps are better suited for specific things, but I'm happy with my carver stuff, and would only sell it for a major profit. ------------------ Paul Ward my home theater www.brookesbakersurveyors.com/klipschht.htm

I think you know my answer. FRONT PROJECTION!!!!!!!! Have you demoed any? The order in which I watch the most, 50% regular tv (digital 4:3), 30% satalite (digital 4:3), 10% HDTV (digital 16:9), and 10% dvd (50% wide screen and 50% 4:3), with some analog tv. I looked at a 16:9 projector but most of my watching is still in 4:3 so that what I got. No expense came into the equation. ------------------ Paul Ward my home theater www.brookesbakersurveyors.com/klipschht.htm

Sorry for the miss information. It appears that I have been wrong for many years. I never had any pops ect so it never raised its ugle head. Going the other way does have its merits. ------------------ Paul Ward my home theater www.brookesbakersurveyors.com/klipschht.htm

Here is a pic of one of my cornwalls. serial number 16S6XX. The grills have an opening for both the tweeter and squaker. the woofers appearto be the same. I'm not the original owner though. I agree with Mr. Homeless, why drive up the price when you can SNIPE at the last minute ------------------ Paul Ward my home theater www.brookesbakersurveyors.com/klipschht.htm

I've heard that you should turn on the compnets starting with the closest to the speaker first then go backwards down the chain. Dont know why, that just what I've heard. I try to turn mine on in this order, amp, reciever, then source that I'll be using, ie hdtv tuner, dvd, turntable....

Have you tried to switch the center with one of the fronts to see if the hum goes with the center or stays in the center? If it stays in the center then its not the speaker and you need to look else where. Try and keep the speaker wire from running parrallel with power cords. If only I could do so much with my own system ------------------ Paul Ward my home theater www.brookesbakersurveyors.com/klipschht.htm

I have to agree with Seb, there is NOTHING like turning down the lights, and having a 100 plus inch image to look at. the geewiz factor is very high and cool. At the local brick and mortor they have a flat panel, and I has not that impressed with it. For comparison, a 60"x45" screen has 2700 sq inches and a 100"x75" screen has 7500 sq inches that a 277% larger screen. That makes a huge difference. I'd go and demo as many as you can, flat panel, crt, lcd and dlp. Happy shopping. ------------------ Paul Ward my home theater www.brookesbakersurveyors.com/klipschht.htm

I know that I'm not the smartest guy in town but looking at the relative number of post I can see how that Klipsch is going the direction that it is. Two channel 435 posts Home Theater 1575 posts Powered subs 401 posts. By compairing the numbers of each section two channel audio seems on its way out. Home theater has a 362% advantage over Two channel and if HT and Subs are added together (same type of source HT) then that have a 454% advantage. That is not taking into account all of the different variables, but I know that pure two channel is a dying breed. if I'm not watching a movie its two channel for me. Which is the Textaverage person going to buy 5 Heritage line speakers and a sub Or 5 Reference line speakers and a sub? most of the time it come down to $$$$$$$$$$$. Klipsch should not abandon those of use that have and love the Heritage line. Even though i bought all my Heritage line speakers used. If I had the chance to purchase a new first generation Heresy, I would. But because I cannot I'm forced to buy used. ------------------ Paul Ward my home theater www.brookesbakersurveyors.com/klipschht.htm

While watching Pearl Harbor I cranked it up and had peakes of 117 at the listening postion. I had to turn down the quentets and sub though. The cornwalls and heresy sounded great. Thats at -7 on my denon. For you that are not familary it goes from -number to 0 and then to +number. ------------------ Paul Ward my home theater www.brookesbakersurveyors.com/klipschht.htm
