  1. They do have a really good sound. Congratulations and welcome to the forum.
  2. Test listening to the bass response of some speakers for sale that you MIGHT buy, with the amp you plan to use at home seems genuine to me. As far as your room is concerned, no one else can really say how any pair of speakers will work out. I say that my Klipschorns sound better in my room than the La Scalas did in the same room. Other people on the forum might say something similar or express an opposite opinion. The fact is that every room has so many variables that any combination will have different results.
  3. This is a perfect opportunity to answer all the nagging questions about your amp. (or the electricity source it is plugged into)
  4. I also was thinking about the earlier K-horns, like mine. Yes, the AK-6 with the enclosed backs can be turned towards your desired position. But then they start to have a bigger footprint than the La Scala.
  5. I would put Klipschorns on the long wall of your 12'x30' room, even if you need to add a free-standing corner at one end. That places your listening position on axis with the tweeters. The dimensions may seem counter-intuitive at first, but it often works good. Try it with your La Scalas before buying the K-horns.
  6. Your Klipsch KA-1000 amp is 17.5" wide. Most 19" rack openings are 17.7" wide. Rack ears will be difficult with those dimensions. Maybe a shelf like this could be adapted, Amazon.com: StarTech.com 2U Server Rack Shelf - Universal Vented Rack Mount Cantilever Tray for 19" Network Equipment Rack & Cabinet - Heavy Duty Steel - Weight Capacity 50lb/23kg - 16" Deep Shelf (CABSHELFV) : Everything Else The shelf opening is too narrow for the amp, but the shelf can be mounted to the rack upside down and the amp set on top.
  7. Please do inform us, no matter how much time passes. It will be educational for all of us.
  8. In all fairness to the reputation of the amp builder, I think it would be considerate to prove that your house wiring, and/or your electric power source is not contributing to the hum. I have witnessed some strange things with electrical circuits over the years and am really curious about the cause of your hum. In the 2 weeks since posting to the public on this forum, have you carried your amp to a friend's house during this time to compare? Sometimes the process of elimination is the only way to realize what is or is not causing a problem.
  9. It looks like the new administrators are @jbabad and @gansd
  10. @Stevevaiamd2006 It would be best to follow through with your other thread in the Home Theater section, to avoid overlap or confusion here. I copied your question and answered over there.
  11. If your AVR has Audyssey or YPAO or MCACC or similar, it will automatically set the crossover frequency after measuring your set-up. If not, 80Hz would be fine.
  12. @Travis In Austin , The "Klipsch Website & Forum Info" seems to attract a lot of new questions of a technical nature. Maybe due to Google algorithms? Can this sub-forum be renamed? Or whatever it takes to guide folks to the Klipsch Audio sub-forums. Thanks
  13. The R-40SA can be used for your surround speakers. Dolby Atmos specs are; Frequency Range: 40 Hz to 16 kHz, +3/–6 dB; Frequency Response: 80 Hz to 16 kHz, ±3 dB

  15. @dtel I believe that @Chad moved on from Klipsch back at 8/23/23.
  16. I like it so much that I bought a Pioneer SC-LX701 for my garage system.
  17. I have been powering Klipsch speakers with this Pioneer AVR for over 5 years. Very satisfied with the sound.
  18. @Travis In Austin Can you tell us the meaning behind the image on the T-shirt in the museum store, that appears to be a K-402 horn on the back of a pack animal?
  19. I see it has been a while but, if you still need assistance try this link, https://support.klipsch.com/
  20. On my bi-amp systems, I use the same amps for bass and treble, so the gain is always matched as the volume (voltage) goes up and down.
