MX-D1??? I see you like this amp[]

WILL DO[Y] SO..you think the old Yamaha MX 800 Is still worthy of pushing the K-Horns??!! I have never heard the horns with any other power source[*-)]

STOCK..Never noticed a drop in sound quality..I know I would be amazed by A CRITES JOB[:^)]

I have been using my Yamaha CX-800U/MX 800 PRE AMP/AMP COMBO for 25 years to power my K-Horns. I do have a "trained ear" so to speak, as I am a musician and sound Tech. The Yamaha still sounds clean, punchy and fairly warm..BUT..I am well aware that there are many BETTER options for my K-Horns. WITHOUT totally breaking the bank..Any suggestions?? I need the high power for "headroom" so the bass and Kick drum will kick my Butt while remaining distortion free. BTW: I WOULD LOVE A TUBE AMP! Thank you for your opinions[Y]

OH YES!!! I had a Scott in the 70's when Neil Young's HARVEST came out..I do remember that rich sound now!! Time to search[Y] Thank you!!

with my 40+ years of experience as a Bass player/ sound engineer, I have found that high power is needed ("headroom") to get the bass pumping, obtaing a clean deep punch. You do not use most of the power, but the "headroom" is a must.

Same deal on my home[8o|] losing money sucks[:'(]

I have been using a YAMAHA MX-800 PRE AMP/POWER AMP on my K-Horns for over 20 years..This combo is warm, clear and very punchy. I am pro Bass Player, so I demand a very clean punch..You can pick up a MX 800 for under $500..Which AMP for $1,000 or less do you think will blow away theYamaha/K-Horn combo and still be dependable year after year as mine has been???[^o)] Thank you for all opinions[Y]

Very True...My 20+ year old YAMAHA MX-800 PRE AMP/AMP sounds absolutely great pushing my K-Horns..Would love to hear a high powered Mac with the K-Horns[H]

HOLY SHIT[*-)] ebay and craigs are looking better these days[^o)]

How much did these sell for new, if you dont mind me asking?

Are you "Tullhead" as in Thick as A Brick or Aqualung[H]

Correct: Power is Power! But, you need "headroom" to make the speakers Kick ***[^o)] The more clean power you have on reserve so to speak, the more Deep Bass Punch you will obtain..and thats a fact[H]

Thank you..love your writing's[ip]

That was easy!! Thanks.

Thank you for that lesson[Y]

Nice Story..I need a note to my self as well! Just picked up my 4th set since 1976..KEEPERS!

Thank you Russ..Can I get the link please..

WOW!!! Only took One Week from my original post to find, secure and put my K-Horns in place with the help of this GREAT FORUM[] THANK YOU!!!!!!!!!!!![<)]

Can any one please tell me what year these are? The Progressive-Engineering site does not seem to work any more[:^)] Thank you!

Thank you[] Thank you again to this great forum for the help..That was quick[Y]

Back in place where they belong..My seat is right in the path of the BASS from one horn to another..I become part of the music[H]

Some one left those behind??[*-)]

Well worth the 750 mile roundtrip to South Carolina..Thanks Guy's!!!![ip]

I am so very happy at this set of K-Horns for only $2000[]
