As you have heard Klipsch speakers all sound great and you really should listen to a few. All their tower speakers sound amazing with exceptional base response. We have a like new pair of Heresey II's with shipping boxes and paperwork we are not using. Mike

Our LaScalla Pro bases are sitting on top of BFM sub base cabs 40" above the floor the midrange through an active electronic crossover is explosive. We all have a different ear and finding the right speaker combo is worth all the time and effort it takes to find them.

You will both be amazed at how well the Lascalla's will fill your home with full rich sound once you get them dialed in. Ours are in our finished basement with floor registers in every room for heat transfer. When the system is playing we both comment most everytime how amazing the sound is. Good Luck

For many years used an equalizer when speakers were lacking. Now with LaScalla's remodified and new horn subs no need for an equalizer. The electronic crossover is all that is needed. Also remodeled the listening room.

I like the idea of retro fitting amps to newer technology as long as the original look is maintained and that it would have to be done by a local person for the knowledge to diagnose and repair it. The other more important factor would have to be the cost otherwise it would not make sense.

As the Fanatic stated half the fun is the journey we have several systems mostly all played through Klipsch speakers. Our Heresey's are presently stored but when used were on stands helped out in the bass with a Sunfire which is also now stored.

With all the speakers we have used in our 18 x 22 listening room the LaScalla's are the ones we like the best for the chest punching bass. Ours are setting on top of a pair of Table Tuba's even at the lowest volumes seriously doubt there could be much more of an improvement. Whatever the assessment my search is over we finally have what we have always wanted and as we all know that is the bottom line. Good luck to all in your quest for that perfect sound reproduction.

In my case "No" the Splits were built like a Brick-hithouse. If i ever buy Scallas again they WILL be splits, much easier to handle and work on also. Splits are for sure much easier to work with and the way I went. Stopped doing gigs a long time ago really like having the separate cabs.

We have had our new horn subs in service now for near 3 months every time we fire them up we are so thankful to have discovered them. No matter where you are in our home upstairs or down the impression is as if you are hearing the music live. Hearing them is the best judge of how they compare.

It should be that way if it pleases the ears great, if it pleases the mind even better. Sure will be glad when the cellar is done we miss our system.

I guess I am a geek also. And old fashioned too. I just happen to like multichannel music also for some recordings. Bill Actually I like the multichannel but being weaned on stereo it just seems less confusing when working around the house or out in the shop. Isn't this part of what makes the world go round.

That is a marriage made in heaven. Kinda like a 4 way LaScala that can go from 22Hz-17KHz. I am speaking of the Tuba Home Theater (THT) and LaScalas with a proper crossover. I understand tapped horn subs get along with LS very well also. We think so the bored K400's at face height with new PRV drivers really tops them off.

I always get a kick when people excitingly speak of how they feel like the speakers are compressing their chest. Our LaScalla's sitting on top of BFM Tuba's where they really shine crossed to do what they do best.

Always listen in stereo because we are so busy all the time. Our living room is wired for surround sound and for a while had all the speakers hooked up call us old fashioned but we got tired of it.

My .02 worth, in all my near 60 yrs. of experimenting with audio have used about every type of speaker wire that would fit the lugs, even what could be considered welding cables. Never running more than 30' to any speaker probably is the reason for never hearing any noticeable difference in sound no matter what wired things together. All our wire is no less than 16 gauge but monster wire non the less,just because it makes me feel better.
