Not much more to say but WT actual F.........

Ok, since it seems the gloves are off and the ad is too.....
You were (are) never going to sell those speakers here or on any other venue for that price. Yeah, you may have gotten some snarky comments, but you gave some too. Contrary to what you believe, there is a vast knowledge of all things Klipsch in this forum and when you play that card you can expect to ruffle some feathers.
Good luck with your sale. In reality you have a nice pair of 1500.00 speakers and I'm sure the market will bear that out.

So the OP is offering these for 400.00 less on US Audio Mart. That’s kind of the opposite of the norm around here. I know I always give a price break for forum members.

If you heard a good implementation of an OB, you’d get it. -

Even over a 300B amp?

I know you didn’t ask me, but I’ve owned two different EL84 amps and both were excellent. A Music Reference RM10 II and an Aric Audio custom. I have also had many EL34 amps, also which were good. But if you don’t need the extra power, there is something special about the EL84 tube. That would be my choice.

Why do you need a digital input? Doesn’t your dac have analog outputs?

A pair of these extend the bottom end of the lascala quite nicely. That said, I too am looking forward to the heritage subs.

I don’t get the point of this experiment. Having two sets of different speakers playing at the same time in different positions has to destroy the soundstage of a track cut for stereo reproduction.
no harm done here but the question remains - Why?
Which brings us back to the old saying "just because you can do a thing, doesn't mean you should"...

My first experience with Klipsch was back in the early 90s when I bought a pair of KG 3.2s. I wasn't really crazy about them and didn't keep them long.
Fast forward to 2013 when a buddy let me borrow a pair of original Heresys. I was smitten. And even though I had a much more expensive pair of full range floor standing speakers, I thought "this is the sound for me". I found a pair of Cornwall IIs on craigslist and the rest as they say, is history.
And no, I can't remember the first thing I played on any of the above speakers.

This is a screaming deal for someone.

I use a QuickSilver FF pre into a Crown Macrotech I can not see me happy with a few Watts. 😀
You’d be shocked. I’ll bet dollars to donuts you can’t stay in the room with my lascalas at lease breaking levels with 8 watts. I can’t make this amp audibly clip on any source material.- 1

There are some pretty nice high end amps out there, many of them made of unobtainium. The one you have currently is pretty damn good. I think any changes you may hear would be pretty minor.
I agree that going from one high powered SS amp to another one might be barely noticeable. But low powered tubes are where heritage klipsch shine. Hence my recommendation.- 5

An SET amp is what ye seek, grasshopper…

+1 on Soundsmith. I bought one of his modded Denons a few years ago and it was great. Later on I bought a Carmen II and it’s even better. Peter is a great resource and makes some fine cartridges. My Hana sits on the shelf unused.

With the 270 mv input sensitivity of the integrated amp I would say there is a good chance it will work.
-
Looks like you might not need a step up tranny. 60 db should be enough for the Hana. What is your line stage?
-
Damn, Dennis is getting 7 watts from a 2a3. Very impressive. GLWS.

Depends on a lot of other things. What is the gain of the phono preamp, gain of the linestage, and sens. of the speakers.

I agree with what's been said already. But I also think the proper height of the speaker is when it is resting on the floor. Raising it up will only hinder sound quality when seated, if that's important to you. Best to use them as designed or not use them at all.

It's been a while since I've seen someone spend so much time in an internet forum explaining just how attractive they are. Ok, ok, we believe you...
