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.

KPT-535/4-T THX Speakers PAIR: $2600 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.

La Scala's How small a room do you have them in

It wasn’t my intention to be insulting to anyone. -

Do you disagree with what I said? Don’t be cute, just say it. -

Anybody who puts LaScalas in an 11x11 room (closet?) deserve exactly what they get…. -

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. -

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……. -

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. -
Anyone know if @henry4841 is alive and well?

The absolute best amp you’ve heard driving heritage speakers.

They are quite what?

I think there's some cool stuff in there. Probably more that you can't see.

Those are some nice systems you have there. Welcome back.

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.

Looking for ways to improve the sound on my system.
Shakeydeal replied to RickD's topic in 2-Channel Home Audio
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. -
@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.

Nicely done!

Don't blink. We are heading down a slippery slope......

Doesn't get much more affordable than that.

There is no best, there's only what one prefers. It's not all about the tube, but how it's implemented into the design. And perhaps the most important part of any amp, the power supply. I don't hesitate to recommend Aric Kimball of Aric Audio when it comes to tube amps. Affordable is relative, but his products offer very high value for the money spent. Aric Audio
