  1. I have here a pair of Verity Audio Parsifal Ovation loudspeakers for sale. Their reputation precedes them and they surely don’t come around very often. I rated these an 8, but I’d say their condition is excellent. The previous owner said there were some surface scratches that were touched up, but when I was polishing the enclosures I tried to find them with no luck. Comes with everything from the factory including flight cases and spikes. Weight is 144 lbs per case. Willing to help with shipping costs. Retail price 19,995.00 Asking price 5,000.00
  2. I wouldn't hesitate to use uship if you have a buyer that really wants them. I shipped lascalas recently using this site and had excellent results.
  3. It shouldn’t be taboo to mention other speaker choices in a forum dedicated to a single brand. If one is doing it the right way, they will cross shop other speakers and make the choice that is right for them. It very well might be klipsch heritage because they are so competitive in and above their price range. But it might be something totally different. I’ve chosen a different path for now, but that doesn’t mean I don’t love and respect klipsch.
  4. I have a pair of these incoming next week.
  5. KPT-535/4-T THX Speakers PAIR: $2700 FIRM for woofer section $2000 FIRM for upper section (SOLD) Located in Los Angeles County, CA Up for sale I have a complete pair of KPT-535/4 speakers. Speakers have been cleaned since initial photo. KPT-535/4-T THX 3-WAY EXTENDED BASS SYSTEM FOR MEDIUM TO LARGE AUDITORIUMS This THX®-Certified system is an enhanced version of the KPT-535-T with a KPT-415-LF quad 15-inch direct-radiating bass unit for greater output in large auditoriums. Yet it retains the smaller system's 24-inch depth minimizing the valuable theater space consumed by the area behind the screen. The dialogue range is superbly handled by a KPT-402-MF Tractrix® Horn fronting a K-1133 two-inch exit titanium compression driver. And a KPT-Grand-HF-T Tractrix® Horn ensures smooth effortless treble reproduction. The KPT-535/4-T is also available with a passive mid/high crossover to operate in either a bi-amp configuration (KPT-535/4-B) or mono-amp configuration (KPT-535/4-M). Quad 15-inch direct-radiating bass unit 24-inch depth Two-inch exit titanium compression driver Tractrix® Horn Tri-amp configuration Klipsch KPT-684-SW Subwoofer. Subs are in excellent condition and the drivers are perfect. Subs work perfectly and have no issues.

  6. It wasn’t my intention to be insulting to anyone.
  7. Do you disagree with what I said? Don’t be cute, just say it.
  8. Anybody who puts LaScalas in an 11x11 room (closet?) deserve exactly what they get….
  9. Yes you can sit as close as you like. And if that’s the kind of presentation you prefer, so be it. It’s not for me. I always clearly heard the improvement in soundstage development, imaging and tonal balance when moving further back. As I’ve said before, most things will “work”. Doesn’t mean they are ideal.
  10. I don’t give any sh*ts about surround sound, so I can’t speak to how they would work in that capacity. But I know when facing them, it’s best to sit a little further away. Now this is subjective and I understand that small details don’t matter to some listeners and that’s ok. But I’m more about quality than quantity, so I sweat the small things. And although LaScalas will “work” in small spaces, I’m of the opinion you don’t get what you paid for. As usual YMMV…….
  11. I think you need to sit around 12-13 ft away from the lascalas for the drivers to integrate. Near field monitors they are NOT.
  12. Anyone know if @henry4841 is alive and well?
  13. I think there's some cool stuff in there. Probably more that you can't see.
  14. Those are some nice systems you have there. Welcome back.
  15. That is excellent, Craig. I'm so happy for you and for her. I hope going forward it's all good news and may she continue to recover.
  16. I agree with the suggestion about addressing your room. Big improvements to be had there for sure. If streaming is your only source, you can reap huge benefits here by upgrading to a dedicated streamer and improving your DAC.
  17. @Dave1291 is right. You won't be competing against chi-fi crap. Those buyers aren't your target demographic. People who want good quality at an honest price are the ones who will seek you out. And you have the convenience of building for whomever you choose.
